Sports contests are loved by children and adults for activity, excitement and diversity. No entertainment can energize and cheer up like sports games. In such competitions you can take part both individually and with entire families and teams. The adversarial spirit and sense of unity of the team will be able to rally completely strangers, which is why sports competitions are often used by organizers when they need to quickly introduce and make friends a large number of children or adults. It is also advisable to use this type of entertainment on vacation and among long-working employees, in order to allow you to look at each other in an unusual setting, to discover new interesting qualities in colleagues.
The use of sports equipment allows diversifying contests and making them more entertaining. Interesting
contests for children can be organized if you use the ball, skittles, jump ropes, hoops and other sports equipment.
For example, a very simple competition for the smallest participants who can count: children become in a circle and throw each other a ball. The first, throwing, says: "One." The second answers: “Two,” and so on. The participant who incorrectly calls the number leaves, then he drops out, and the game starts again.
You can also hide the pins and give the task to collect them. The one who collects the most is the winner. Everyone's favorite “potato” is still more suitable for an adult company, as it involves calculating the power of the blow.
Elementary catch-ups can be complicated by inviting participants to catch those fleeing into the hoop.
If suddenly there was no equipment at hand, then you can conduct sports contests using completely different means.
Replacing the ball with an empty plastic bottle, you can arrange the baton with the bottle held between the knees. The team in which not one of the participants drops the bottle while running will win.
Using pebbles, shells or cones, you can arrange a relay race, as a result of which each team of participants will have to lay out some picture or word.
Light small balls can be made from crumpled paper or newspaper, wrapping it with tape, and use it to hit the target.
Competitions for children on the street will allow you to appreciate the beauty of nature and enjoy its various possibilities.
An interesting competition that can captivate children for a long time can become this: the children are instructed to collect a beautiful bouquet for their mother and hand it. Whoever makes the largest and most beautiful bouquet is considered the winner.
Jumping rope can be complicated by offering to jump on various surfaces: sand, grass, water, etc.
Using a beautiful twig or flower, you can play the traditional game "freeze-wither."
The simplest relay race can be carried out using not a relay stick, but a wreath of flowers or herbs that participants will put on each other.
Sports contests are able to significantly diversify leisure activities and bring elements of both cooperation and rivalry into it. In addition, they will contribute to the development of healthy lifestyle skills in children and adults.
