Winter outdoor games: more than 20 winter outdoor games for walks with children from toddlers to schoolchildren.

Winter outdoor games

Winter holidays are the time for walks and outdoor games with children on the street. What to play with children in winter? What kind of folk games and relay races can be organized and invented for kids and older children? In this article you will find more than 20 options and ideas for outdoor games with children on the street from the smallest children to schoolchildren.

Game 1 "Snowstorm"

Game options

For toddlers: players stand in pairs (adult and child) facing each other, arms spread apart, holding hands on each other's palms (boat hand position)

For senior preschoolers and schoolchildren: Players (adult and child) stand in pairs side by side, clinging under the elbow.

When children have learned to play the game in pairs with an adult, then they can play in pairs with each other.

How to play

Everyone starts spinning in place, saying the words:

Blizzard, blizzard,
Snow is spreading across the field!
Who is spinning, spinning -
He will swoon!

After these words, the couples continue to spin in place. The task is to spin for a long time and not fall.

The players spin around until they get dizzy.

The game develops the vestibular apparatus and a sense of balance, teaches you to listen to the player in pairs.

Game 2 "Santa Claus"

We choose according to the counting rhyme of Santa Claus. Santa Claus stands in a circle drawn in the center of the round dance. He is surrounded by other participants in the game and dance around him to the words:

Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
Overgrown through the oak
Overgrown through the oak
Rolled up a cart of gifts:

Frosts crackling,
snow loose,
The winds are swirling,
Blizzards are friendly,
Cold - let the cold down,
He built a bridge on the river.

After these words, the players scatter, and Santa Claus catches them. If Santa Claus touched the player, then he "froze" him. The "frozen" player goes into the circle and stands there. Other players can help him - "unfreeze" him. How to unfreeze: you need to make a snowball and throw it into the circle to the “frozen” player. He must hit Santa Claus with this snowball. Santa Claus is trying to dodge the snowball.

Game difficulty:

If Santa Claus caught and "frozen" three players, then they are preparing a gift for him - they are making a snowman.

Everyone stands around the snow woman and leads the New Year's round dance.

Game 3 "Talking with snowballs"

We draw a large square with lines - a playground. You can’t run outside the site (if you run, you will become the driver in this game). We prepare in advance all together a lot of snowballs for the drivers.

All players run inside the court, two leaders run outside the court. The task of the presenters is to throw snowballs at the players, trying to hit them. If a player is hit by a snowball, he is out of the game. The game ends when two players remain inside the court. They become leaders in the new game.

Game 4 "Gate"

This is a hill game. Children make "collars" together with adults - from sticks without sharp ends, gymnastic plastic sticks, spruce branches, ski poles, which are stuck into the snow with a sharp end and stand upright. You need to try to drive down the hill (on an ice rink, sled or even ... on a broom!), hitting the gate and not hitting them.

If the player managed to pass through the gate, he receives a chip. At the end, the most dexterous player who got the most chips is congratulated.

Useful idea: Circles cut out of the packaging can serve as chips. For this purpose, you can find milk or juice bags, covered with foil on the inside. You will get "silver chips" and even a big "silver medal" for the most dexterous!

Game 5 "Ice"

Everyone becomes in a circle. In the center of the circle, the driver jumps on one leg and moves an ice floe with it like a bat. With this piece of ice, he tries to get into the foot of one of the guys standing in a circle. All players dodge the ice. If the ice touched someone (touched the soles of his shoes), then he becomes the leader in the game.

Game 6 "Snowball"

This game is a winter competition in strength and dexterity for boys. Everyone is making a huge snowball. Two boys stand opposite each other so that there is someone between them.

The guys take each other's hands and pull each other towards them so that the enemy falls on someone. The task of each player is not to touch the lump with his chest or stomach. If one of the players “lay down on someone”, i.e. touched him with his stomach, chest, then he gives way to another participant in the competition. The winners are awarded silver medals for foil strength and agility.

Game 7- for kids “I will freeze»

Children stand in a round dance and stretch their mittens forward. An adult stands in the center of the circle and tries to touch the hands of the children with his hand. Children should quickly hide their hands behind their backs. If someone was touched by an adult, then he was “frozen”.

Game 8 - for the smallest "Bear"

Take a toy - a bear for a walk. Put the bear on the bench as if the bear is sleeping. Go with the child (with children) to the bear and say:

Once we were walking in the forest
And we met a bear.
He lies under the tree
Stretched out and snoring.
We walked around it
The clubfoot was awakened:
"Come on, Mishenka, get up,
And quickly catch up with us "

An adult picks up a toy bear, and the bear catches up with the kids, who run away from him to the agreed place ("to the house").

Game 9 "Mitten"

The game requires a large number of participants - invite everyone who walks with children near you! If you are going to play in cold weather, then take an extra mitten with you, with which we will play. If the weather is warm and the players can take their mittens off their hands, let them play with their mittens.

Choose two drivers. The first driver stands in the center of the circle, the second driver follows him at a distance. All other participants in the game stand around them in a big round dance, holding hands. Everyone stands in such a way that the first leader is in the circle, and the second is outside the circle.

The first driver must throw a mitten and hit it (“tarnish”) the second driver. The players in the circle prevent him from doing this by raising their hands and beating the mitten back into the circle with them, their task is to protect the second driver.

If the second player is knocked out, then he becomes the center of the circle and becomes the first driver. To find a pair for him - the second driver - the former first driver invites someone of his choice from the circle. He throws his mitten up - whoever catches it will play the role of the second driver. And the game is played again.

If the second player is not knocked out with a mitten, then the first driver continues to play his role.

Game 10 "Two Frosts"

We draw two lines, there should be a large distance between them. Two Frosts are selected. They stand between these lines.

All other players stand along one of the drawn lines facing Frost.

The first Frost says: "I am Red Nose Frost!"

The Second Frost says: "I am Blue Nose Frost!"

Two Frosts together say: “Well, which of you decides to go on a journey - to start a path?”

All the players unanimously answer them in chorus: “We are not afraid of threats, and we are not afraid of frost”

Two Frosts command in chorus: "One, two, three - run!"

The task of the players after this team is to run across the field to the next line, running behind it. The task of the Frosts is to tarnish the fleeing players. Those who have been tarnished are “frozen” and must stand still.

Again, Frosts shout to the children: “One, two, three - run!” Everyone runs back. Running players can "unfreeze" their friends by hitting them while running. And the Frosts at this time are trying to "freeze" new players.

So they run until the Frosts freeze most of the children.

If a large group of children (25-30 people) is playing at the same time, then not two, but three or four frosts are selected.

The child must run across the field to the opposite line, even if he is afraid. Since who does not walk around the city, he immediately leaves the game!

Game 11 with sled "In places"

We put the sled in a circle. They should be one less than the number of children playing. Children run around the playground, spinning. At the command of an adult, “In places,” the children quickly run to the sled and must have time to take a place on them as quickly as possible.

Whoever did not have enough space - he becomes the driver in the next game and gives the signal “In places”.

Game 12 "Bell"

Hang a bell on a bright ribbon on a tree branch, on a horizontal bar in the yard. The task of the players is to throw snowballs at the bell in such a way as to hit it and make it ring. If this succeeds, we lay out a stick or a cone for this player on the “counting field”. Then we consider who managed to hit the bell more times.

Game 13 "Fifteen on a sled" (winter Karelian folk game)

Draw a large square on the ground - a playground. Several couples are playing. In each pair, one player carries the other on a sled. A pair of drivers is selected (in it, one player also carries the second player on a sled).

The signal sounds and the game begins. Drivers try to catch up with any of the pairs and tarnish one of the players. Spotting in a pair of drivers is only a player sitting on a sled. He does it with the touch of his hand.

If a pair of drivers managed to knock someone down, then this pair begins to drive in the game, and the game continues.

They play only within the outlined area. If a couple violated this rule and drove outside the site, then it immediately becomes the driver (let the children announce loudly: “We are driving!” And begin to catch up with other players). You can not salt the players of the pair that was just leading.

Game 14 "Who will throw the snowball further"

Children make snowballs. We draw a line along which all players stand. At the command of an adult, “Throw snowballs!”, Children throw snowballs at a distance. For a range guide, we put flags or colored cubes. Whose snowball flew the farthest? To which cube (flag) did he fly? Let's try to roll even further - to the blue die?

Game 15 Snowball Racing

Let's make big snowballs together. Draw a start line. In front of each player is his big snowball. At the signal of the host of the game, the players begin to roll their ball from the start to the finish (at a distance of 3 to 5 meters). The winner is the one who first rolls his lump to the finish line, and the lump remains safe and sound.

Game 16 "Icicles, wind and frost" (winter game of the peoples of Siberia and the Far East)

The game is played by an adult.

Players stand in pairs facing each other, clap their hands and say:

cold icicles,
transparent ice cubes,
They sparkle, they ring
Ding, ding.

One clap is made in one's own hands, the other in the hands of the player in his pair, and so the claps alternate.

The host of the game gives a signal: "Wind!". Children - ice floes scatter in different directions and quietly agree on who will build a large ice floe with whom. At the signal of the host “Frost”, everyone lines up in a circle and join hands (they join hands as agreed).

Ice pieces after the “wind” signal can not only run or spin, but also jump or jump.

Game 17 "Forest Landmarks"

This game can be played in the forest or in the park.

Let's start playing in the field. All players are divided into pairs. Each pair has a number one and a number two. The host of the game - an adult - gives the first numbers some objects (a cone, a stick, a piece of tree bark, a ball, a small rubber toy, etc.). The host leads the first number far to the side (200-300 meters). There they hide their items in hiding places together with the host. And the second numbers remain at this time in the clearing under the supervision of another adult. The first numbers return to the clearing.

In each pair, the first number tells the second number how to get to a conditional place and find a cache in it. You can draw a plan, you can explain in words. As soon as all the pairs are ready, a general signal is given: “One, two, three - look!”, And then the second numbers run to search for hiding places. The second numbers need to run to the agreed place, find a hiding place, take a surprise and return back to the clearing.

Then the game is repeated with a change of roles in each pair.

For the first time it is convenient to play the game in pairs "adult and child", when the children learn to clearly explain the way, they will be able to play in pairs with each other.

Game 18 "Flags on the ice track»

On a compacted snow path, a segment 4-6 m long and 40-50 cm wide is filled with water. Landmarks are placed along the path - colored flags or toys, by which we can show the child how far he drove along the ice path.

Children vigorously scatter and slide along the icy path, trying to ride along it as far as possible. Using the landmarks, we note who slid further along the path - for example, “Olya slid to the red flag, and who will try to the green one?” For kids, the version of the game is different: “Vova got into the wolf’s house, came to him along the path. Let's go to the house. Knock knock, who lives here. It's me, the gray wolf. And who are you? And I'm a boy Vova! Let's try to slide along the path to the fox. Who will get to her house?

Similarly, you can play on the slope of the slide by placing multi-colored flags or toys along the slope.

Game 19 "Fifteen with snowballs"

We draw a large square on the ground with lines - this is a playground for which you cannot run. We all make snowballs together. We choose a driver with a counting rhyme.

The driver tries to hit the players with snowballs, who dodge the snowballs and run around the site in different directions. The one who was hit by the driver with a snowball becomes his assistant and helps him stain the players with snowballs. Those players who have not been stained with a snowball the longest win.

Game 20

Draw a big circle. At four points of this circle, make a gate (their width is about 70cm).

Place more cubes between the gates.

You will get an obstacle course of cubes that you need to go around, and gates that you need to drive through.

They play in pairs. In each pair, one child carries the other on a sled, going around the cubes and getting into the gates. The task is not to knock down the cubes and get into the gate. Then the players change places.

Game options:

Idea 1: The same gates can be made from sticks when skiing (gate width -30 cm), The child tries to pass through the gate without hitting them.

Idea 2: You can place the cubes so that you need to snake between them.

Idea 3: You can complicate the task by additionally placing rubber toys between the gates, which are collected “along the way” by the player sitting on the sled.

Game 21 with snowballs "Snipers"

We put several items on the snow shaft (for example, you can use skittles).

At a distance of 3-4 meters from the shaft, we draw a line. Children stand on the line and try to knock down objects on a snow bank. The game ends when all items are knocked down.

Winter games are a lot of different things with sleds, snowballs, skis, skates. You can not only use them as ready-made options, but also invent them yourself! I wish you all an interesting winter holidays!

The article provides examples of winter games that will make a walk in kindergarten interesting and exciting, and will also keep children from freezing! Winter games in kindergarten will help diversify physical education classes on the street, teaching counting, memory training, developing imagination and ingenuity in young preschoolers.

Pathfinder

Going for a walk, read the fairy tale about Winnie the Pooh, who tracked down an unknown beast, and in the end it turned out that he followed in his own footsteps. Invite the children to become Pathfinders for a while. To begin with, teach preschoolers to leave clear footprints in the snow, then offer to guess which of the children left which footprint.

For children of the nursery group, completely uncomplicated winter games in kindergarten are suitable. For example, leave imprints of cubes of different sizes in the snow and invite the children to arrange the cubes according to the imprints.

On your next walk in kindergarten, teach the children to identify bird tracks. Ask them to dream up and, perhaps, come up with an animal hitherto unknown to science with traces inherent only to it.

This game can also be transferred to kindergarten classes - jointly cut paper stencils in the form of footprints and come up with various tasks: draw footprints through the stencil around the house and so on.

Path

In winter games in kindergarten, you can add counting and a little ... adventurism. Practice with the children to follow the prompts: two steps to the right, three steps to the left, 5 steps to the tree. Once the children have mastered these exercises, offer them a game like "treasure island".

hide and seek

Take various white items from the group and place them on the site. Name the objects that are disguised in the snow and ask the children to find them.

Treasure Island

Before the walk, hide the treasure on the site and prepare a map with a description of the route to the treasure. During the search, invite the children to perform mobile exercises: for example, only after knocking down all the pins, participants are allowed to the next point on the map.

Smart snowflakes

Show your imagination in a seemingly ordinary game: invite the children to help the mouse cross the ravine. To do this, you need to throw snowballs from a certain distance and fill them with a bucket or a hole in the snow. Older children can guess the words that the teacher has thought of. Moreover, each successful hit with a snowball on the target allows you to learn one letter from the hidden word.

labyrinth

Lay a winding path in the snow and invite the children to follow it without stepping beyond it. For the successful passage of the labyrinth, a reward is given.

For older children, you can make a real labyrinth and invite them to find their own way to its center, where preschool children will be waiting for a well-deserved prize.
