Birthday is not at all a sad holiday, as it is sung in the well-known song by Igor Nikolaev. And it’s a very fun event, especially when you spent very little time preparing for it. Funny performances and mini birthday skits will help you entertain your guests, especially since we will be happy to share our knowledge and experience with you. After reading our recommendations, you, as a professional presenter, will be able to please your loved ones and friends with an entertainment program prepared just by you.
Types of performances and mini skits for a man or woman’s birthday
There are a great many humorous games and competitions. You don’t have to rack your brains to come up with them yourself. All you have to do is go online to holiday websites where you can choose what you like. Our comic scenes Suitable for an anniversary or any feast. But I want to draw your attention to how to properly organize the order of showing skits as the event progresses.
Let's remember that any holiday has:
- introductory part (arrival of guests)
- official table part (congratulations, gifts)
- intermission part (dancing, entertainment)
It follows from this that you need to select funny scenes and performances based on this order.
Birthday performances and skits for the introductory part of the holiday
Even a meeting of guests can be organized in a very fun way. Let us recall such an example as the “Bread and Salt” meeting. The owner greets his guests with jokes, says funny jokes, giving them a bite of bread or pie.
Birthday script "Meeting guests"
The host or hostess, or better yet the whole family, wearing caps, funny hats or masks, greet the guest at the door, reading greetings:
Welcoming guests with “Bread and Salt”
We're not bored today
We dance and sing
We are celebrating the holiday today,
And we invite guests to our place!
Hello, invited guests!
Hello, welcome guests!
We wish you good health,
We invite you to drink tea!
Then they treat the visitor, put a festive cap on him, inviting him to meet the next invited person with them. Imagine the surprise of the guests at such a meeting! Let's be honest, the boring wait for everyone to arrive will turn into fun entertainment for everyone. You can also ask the newcomer to recite an interesting poem or dance a dance, and only after that accept him into the cheerful company of those greeting him.
Of course I would like to remind you funny scenario, a wonderful gypsy production "Meeting our dear guest"
To do this, you need to prepare colored scarves, a guitar or a tambourine in advance ( musical instruments can be cut from cardboard or improvised means). Buy a bear mask and hats, thereby turning the meeting of guests into a whole show with dancing, dressing up and involving the newcomers in the performance you have planned.
See all friends 
The gypsy soul sings.
A dear friend came to visit us,
Pour him a lot!
We'll sing and dance,
It's fun to celebrate the holiday!
He came to us, he came to us,
Our dear friend, dear
Bottoms up! Bottoms up! Bottoms up!
I want to say that using the templates for welcoming guests that we gave you above, you can arrange a production for your holiday, on almost any topic. They are suitable for both adults and children.
And so, we met the guests. Let's move on to the official table part of our holiday. Guests sit decorously at the tables, periodically standing up, announcing toasts, and giving gifts. I think this is the most “boring” pastime. This is where it's time to shake things up. Small musical scene with the participation of guests, there will be what you need.
Short skits and performances for the official table part
I believe that for this part of the evening, musical performances with a minimum number of participants (from 1 to 3 people) are very suitable, since most of the guests are not yet ready for active actions, basically everyone behaves passively.
A musical, interactive number is very suitable - congratulations on dressing up, for example:
- to Serduchka
- to Alla Pugacheva
- to the gypsies
Guests at the party
Don’t forget, for such scenes you need to prepare props, as well as musical accompaniment
But believe me, your efforts will not go unnoticed, but on the contrary, they will bring freshness and revitalization to the holiday atmosphere.
Another option is to rent special gag costumes for such productions. Although personally, I advise you to order a professional animator. It will definitely surprise your guests and save you from unnecessary hassle.
The number of scenes in this part of the holiday can be determined in advance by the number of guests invited by you. For every three toasts - one skit (just a recommendation from my own experience). Then your guests will definitely not get bored.
Scenario for a birthday, for the intermission part
Well, now let's move on to the main, active part of the event. After the guests have eaten, drunk, and breathed fresh air, it's time for funny mini-skits for birthdays, for women and men. In addition to dancing, we invite you to play a contact fairy tale with your guests. This will greatly amuse your guests. Don't forget to film this “fun” on camera. Subsequently, after making a video, you can enjoy with your friends the memories of your holiday.
As we have already said, there are a lot of scripts, fairy tales and skits on the Internet, take your pick, I don’t want to. Of course, the more costumes, props, and most importantly characters, the more interesting. Let's give an example of a fairy tale that is familiar to everyone from childhood. This mini scene can be played on the birthday of either a woman or a man.
Contact scene “Turnip” for a birthday
The fairy tale "Turnip" in action
Leading:
— Dear guests, stop chewing pies and bones.
Let's entertain ourselves and amuse our friends.
I want to tell you a fairy tale,
About how grandfather planted turnips,
Yes, I almost broke my stomach.
This fairy tale is for children and adults. Well, first of all, we need a “Turnip”, it should be big - very big (he chooses the biggest guest. You can put a headband with green leaves on your head, but it will look funnier if the pot is a small flower)
- That's what it is, fodder turnip! And now we need a grandfather, let him be a hundred years old. (choose from the male half. For props, you can use an old hat or beard).
- Yes, and we need a grandmother, just let her be young (we choose a grandmother using the women's table. Props - an apron, glasses, a rolling pin).
- Well, people, listen, what a turn it was. Here comes the grandfather, although he is old, he is a fine fellow, a rogue with a beard. But there is one problem: he is lazy. He'll come out in the morning; he likes only the balalaika. He sits on the rubble all day and spits on the fence. (The guest at this time performs movements: stroking his beard, playing the balalaika, spitting).
“And here comes the grandmother, she’s young at heart, but she looks like a hag.” He walks, swears, clings to everything with his feet (Acting role, performs movements: stumbles, threatens someone with his fist).
Now all the words will always be pronounced by the presenter in front of the actor, and he, in turn, will skillfully repeat them with expression and gestures)
Grandma: “Why are you sitting there doing nothing, grandpa?”
Grandfather: “I’m too lazy, you’re in trouble.”
Grandma: “Well, old stump, go plant turnips and increase my wealth.”
Presenter: - Eh, grandfather got up and went to plant turnips. He came, planted it in the ground, watered it from above, and went back (the actor repeats all the actions according to the text).
Host: “Can you imagine, friends, this is how the whole summer went by!” The sun is shining, the rain is falling, our beautiful turnip is growing, and the grandfather sits on the balalaika and plays and does not blow his whistle. The grandmother came again, angry, angry, gritting her teeth, cracking her bones, swearing!
Grandma: “What are you doing, you’re sitting there again, looking at me, you better go look at the turnip.”
Presenter: - Grandfather stood up, shook himself off, turned around with his beard and went to the garden to look at turnips. Look, she’s big, round-sided and large, she’s sitting in the ground and doesn’t want to come out. He jumped around, let’s shout and call for help.
Grandfather: - Grandma come out, take out your bones!
Presenter: - Here comes the grandmother, carrying her bones. She came, looked, said loudly:
Grandma: - This turnip!!! (grandmother spreads her hands in surprise)
The host addresses the guests: “Don’t pull out the turnips.” Who should I call?
Guests: - Granddaughter
Presenter: — That’s right, granddaughter. And here comes the granddaughter, shaking her mane, that’s what she is, a city girl (you can choose a granddaughter during the course of the play, a younger girl would be good for her. Props - a wig with bows or braids).
Granddaughter: - Hello, what do you need?
Grandfather and grandmother: - Help me pull out the turnip.
Granddaughter: - Will you give me some sweets?
Grandfather and grandmother: - We'll give it.
Presenter: - the granddaughter came closer and screamed:
Granddaughter: - This is a turnip!!!
Presenter: - Three of us can’t pull it out. Who else should I call?
Guests: - Bug!
Presenter: - That's right, Zhuchku! Here she is waving her tail, there is no one more beautiful than her.
(props: headband with dog ears)
Bug: - Woof-woof. Hello, what do you need?
Grandfather and grandmother: - Help me pull out the turnip.
Bug: - Will you give me a bone?
Grandfather and grandmother: - We'll give it.
Presenter: - Bug came closer and spread her arms.
Bug: - This is Turnip!
Host: - There’s no way to get us out, who else should we call?
Guests: - A cat.
Host: - Yes, friends, of course a cat. The most beautiful, very sweet. Here she comes, purring and singing. (Props: headband with cat ears)
Cat: - Meow-meow, purr-purr. And here I am, looking all good. Hello, what do you need?
Grandfather and grandmother: - Pull out the turnip.
Cat: - Will you give me milk with sour cream?
Grandfather and grandmother: - We'll give it.
Presenter: - The cat came closer and purred under its breath:
Cat: - This is a turnip!
Presenter: - Yes, here’s the thing, even the cat didn’t help. They decided to go home with the whole family, have lunch, sleep, and lie down. They say, if we gain strength, then we will defeat the turnip. (Everyone steps aside).
- Well, while the whole family was sleeping, a small mouse came to the field. (Use the mouse to select the largest man or the birthday boy)
- The mouse saw the turnip and squeaked:
Mouse: - This is a turnip! You need this turnip yourself.
Presenter: The mouse took the turnip in her hands and dragged it into her hole. (Takes the mouse aside).
“And the whole family returned to the garden and saw that there were no turnips.”
All the actors together: - Where is the turnip?
Presenter: - Yes, we overslept, you are a turnip. You can’t even pull a turnip out of the garden without difficulty. Yes, yes... But there is no morality, as long as there is a delicious lunch. But you are very lucky, our mouse is very kind, she will definitely share the turnip. (The mouse comes out and takes out the turnip). That’s the end of the fairy tale, and well done to those who listened!
With these words, you can ask everyone to clap and announce a photo shoot.
Think dear friends, you liked our script, table games and skits. We will post a lot more interesting things on this topic in the future. I would like to say only one thing: mass games and scenes for congratulating you on your birthday will only add positivity to your holiday.

The celebrations in Nizhnye Bukvichki were very magnificent. Crowds of football players, track and field athletes, weightlifters, sprinters and stayers, shot throwers and javelin throwers, jumpers and wrestlers, motorcyclists, tourists, pilots, rowers, billiard players, chess players, walkers, motorists, jockeys, yachtsmen, fencers, tennis players, handballers, cyclists, shooters, swimmers, boxers, skiers, speed skaters, polo players, golfers, rugby players, cricketers, dog trainers, canaries and homing pigeons, fishermen and jujutsists. They poured along all the roads and highways, rode in all types of sports vehicles, and the forests around Nizhniye Bukvichek were resounding with multilingual conversations. Sports ground The Klapzubs were surrounded by flagpoles with state flags, a podium for speakers rose above the northern gate, and sellers of sausages, cofettes and lemonade scurried around. At ten o'clock the emerald rectangle of the site was surrounded by a boundless sea of spectators. At a quarter past ten, the chairman of the celebration commission brought a gray-haired old man to the oratory.
- Kadya! This is Kadya! - flashed through the audience, and old Kadya did not have time to bow.
The noise didn't stop for a long time, died down, and the shaking old man Kadya delivered his speech in a trembling voice. | Amid prolonged applause, he was replaced by Vanik, hunched over from old age, who burst into tears and never finished his speech.
The appearance of the Klapzuba team, led by a flushed father, on the podium was greeted with wild jubilation. Captain Gonza thanked him in a few words for the attention he had received and was about to leave the podium when he was stopped by a new outburst of jubilation. Eleven girls in bright tracksuits climbed to the podium. These were members of the Prague and Brno “Slavia”, the society of employees in Karlin and the Trebic “Achilles”. All, as one, are famous athletes, invincible world record holders in running over all distances from sixty yards to half a mile, in long and high jumps, in javelin throwing and shot put. On behalf of the Czech sportswomen, they came to thank the football masters for their perfect play and services and pinned them with small honorary medals by the sculptor Gutfreund as souvenirs. The Klapzubovites were very surprised and touched by this unexpected honor, and their hearts beat strongly in their powerful chests when the beautiful athletes pinned each of their pins to it. At that moment, V.V. Shtekh waved the flag, and the military orchestra struck up the Klapzubs’ victorious anthem.
Finally, the heroes of the occasion left the podium to begin the solemn ceremony. In the north-eastern corner of the sports ground stood a plow, decorated with ribbons and wreaths; the plow was harnessed to several Napayedl horses, once famous skittish stallions, now completely subdued from old age.
Old Klapzuba took the reins from the senior coachman - he gave up the honor of leading the plowing to no one. The plowing of the first furrow was entrusted to a government representative, namely the Minister of Health. Everyone present noted with surprise that he plowed excellently. The second furrow was drawn by the English envoy, then it was the turn of the chairman of the Olympic Committee, the deputy chairman of the International Football Federation, the chairman of the Union, the chairman of all large sports associations, a representative of self-government, and finally the last furrow was plowed by the modest but unforgettable teacher Jarouszek, the first teacher of the heroic team ...
Throughout the large expanse of the ideal sports ground it was getting dark spring sun brown overturned layers, and crows, flying out of the forest, sat in the furrows and pulled out the worms due to them.
Meanwhile, the orchestra settled down on the edge of the forest, and people, sitting around on lawns, pastures and clearings, ended the first official part of the celebrations with a grand picnic. After lunch, dancing began, and in the evening countless crowds flocked to the station, after singing their battle anthem to the Klapzubites.
Evening cast a dark blue velvet of twilight onto the already deserted field. Only the white walls stood out in the darkness Cozy houses Klapzubovites; in their solitude, separated by the forest from Nizhnye Bukvichek, after the solemn day they seemed even more lonely.
Humor has been and remains an integral part of human life. Moreover, he occupies far from the last place in it. This is part of the culture of society, taking its origins into the distant past. The need for irony and a humorous and condescending view of some things appeared in tribal society. It was then that professional jesters appeared who knew how to find humor and mock the contradictions of the surrounding reality. Moreover, only they were allowed to laugh at absurdities and incidents.
Humor as the most important component of relaxation
Everyone is allowed to joke these days.

The skit can be evaluative and satirical, ridiculing absurd things, or simply interpret some phenomena humorously. Any means are good for this - wordplay, exaggeration or understatement, parody, double meaning or friendly banter.
Rules for a humorous skit
It doesn’t matter at all whether the humorous scene follows the script or is played out impromptu. The essence itself is important - laughter, good mood and the relaxed state of the public. There are special techniques and rules for this:
- It is important not to overplay! Irony should not be directed at the personalities of those present. Especially if the skit is based on a fable, none of the participants should feel humiliated.
- Funny humorous scenes will only benefit if they use appropriate scenery, costumes and other little things. They are the ones who set the tone and mood!

Scenes based on fairy tales
Of course, first of all for fun company We need sketches that are funny and cool. Humorous sketch scenarios are easy to write based on fairy tales. All adults are former children, which means you can safely use a popular fairy tale or fable, play out the introduction beautifully - and the production is ready. Such fairy tales as “Turnip”, “Kolobok”, “The Wolf and the Seven Little Goats”, “Teremok”, “Sleeping Beauty”, “Cinderella” and others are played out in a very interesting way. Much depends here on the acting skills of the participants and on the imagination of the audience. But hardly anyone will remain indifferent when, according to the fairy tale “Ivan Tsarevich and Gray wolf“Ivan and his beloved princess will saddle a horse and gallop off to ask for their parents’ blessing.
Pantomimes and shapeshifters
A humorous scene in the form of a pantomime and a reversal fairy tale will evoke no less emotions. There are no words in pantomime, but it is easy to show artistry, plasticity and emotionality. How many emotions will be evoked by a participant trying to portray himself as the sad brownie Kuzya. And in the changelings, the names alone are worth it - you still need to guess what fairy tale we are talking about:
- “Silver Fox and 2 Giants” - “Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs”;
- “Slender Mare” - “The Little Humpbacked Horse”;
- “The Green Slipper” - “Little Red Riding Hood”;
- “Crusk” - “Kolobok”;
- “Sprat in tomato” - “Goldfish”;
- “Frying” - “Morozko”;
- “Rusty Lock” - “Golden Key”, etc.
Example for a scene
It would be welcome if the fairy tale was rewritten in new way. Example Scenario humorous skit might look like this:
"Teremok"
Decoration in the form of a cardboard sheet with cut-out windows with shutters. Russian folk melodies and costumes:
- The presenter wears a belted shirt and a sign with the inscription “Sale” in his hands;
- Mouse - Mickey Mouse costume;
- Frog - bright green overalls and a bright umbrella;
- Hare - Stepashka's costume from "Good night, kids!";
- Chanterelle - Serduchka's outfit;
- Wolf - gray suit and hat with earflaps;
- Bear - felt boots and a fur coat.
The presenter comes out first and tries to install the sign:
And if the house is empty in vain, who will pay taxes?
At this time the Mouse appears:
Oh, ownerless little mansion!
The host notices the guest, gets scared and disappears behind the stage. The mouse, not noticing the inscription, goes behind the decoration.
A frog appears and looks at the inscription:
I don’t know what “Salo” means, but I’m already interested!
He goes behind the decoration and appears in the window together with the mouse. Mouse:
How did you get here?
So the door was not locked!
Well, okay, since it wasn’t locked... stay alive.
Is this a women's dormitory?
Will you be our lodger?
The hare agrees.
Fox runs after:
And let me in as a lodger!
One is enough for us! - answers the Mouse.
What if as a cleaner?
I would have said so right away!
The fox comes in, and the hare is sent to fetch water. He approaches the well and accidentally falls into it. The wolf comes out and notices the hare's ears:
Looks like someone's in trouble... - sniffing - and I think he'll be good for lunch!
He gets the hare, he squeaks, and the wolf lets him go. The hare runs into the mansion, the wolf follows him. Shouts of “Catch the hooligan!” can be heard. When the noise subsides, a bear appears. Reads on the sign “And-by-the-ka”:
Oh, this is where they will help me! - knocks.
Mouse and a bear appear from the window shouting “Mouse!” hastily leaves.
Well, actually, I'm not alone here! - Mouse shouts after him.
Characters appear from behind the scenery as they appear, all in unison:
Now we will all live here and pay all contributions until retirement!
The example given is easy to adapt to any event, and most importantly, it can involve a large number of participants and give them the opportunity to dream up their own imaginations.
It is necessary to develop artistry in children with early childhood. Will help with this short skits. Funny for children, stories should be instructive and understandable, but at the same time develop important character traits.
A fable is the basis for a sketch script
It is known that the most instructive literary work is a fable. Only in this genre is the obligatory point the presence of morality - an important main conclusion from what has been said. Therefore, some sketches that are funny for children are often based on the plots of famous fables.
The works of Ivan Andreevich Krylov are accessible to preschoolers to understand. These are “Monkey and Glasses”, “Squirrel”, “Crow and Fox”, “Tit”, “Dragonfly and Ant”, “Quartet”, “Swan, Crayfish and Pike”.
Today there are a lot of adaptations of famous fables in a new way. For example, at the end of the story of the fox and the raven, the cheese does not fall into the mouth of the cunning flatterer. The wise crow puts it in her paw and answers the fox that “she can sing, that’s true, but it’s not the time or place for a concert yet.”
Ways to present fables on stage
Do not think that playing on stage is only accessible to adult children. If you approach the matter creatively, you can cope with the efforts of even very small children.
There are four options for presenting the scene. Episodes that are funny for children, for example, can be acted out without the words of the author. Then the children pronounce only the words of the characters. A second option would be for an adult to read the author's words. Option three is suitable for older children, when the entire fable is a role-playing reading with a demonstration of the actions of the plot. But very young children can become artists without even being able to speak properly. Then the entire text is read by an adult, and the kids mime the plot in front of the audience.
Fairy tale and irony - twin sisters
It’s unlikely that anyone didn’t like listening to fairy tales as a child. Many short works This genre can easily be turned into ironic scenes. Scenarios that are funny for children come from the fairy tales “Stupid Hans” by Andersen, “Hedgehogs Laugh” and “The Brave Tailors” by Korney Chukovsky, as well as others. Short stories, told by the wonderful poet Chukovsky, can easily turn into cheerful and funny scenes for kindergarten.
A fairy tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it!
Sometimes it can be difficult to choose a story to dramatize. What if we play out the fairy tale “How the Hare Became the Ruler of the Jungle” about how the scythe deceived a huge lion, inviting him to fight a more powerful opponent?
The meaning of the story is that the king of beasts was strong, but stupid. The hare had to come to him for dinner according to the law that the cruel lion overlord had established in the jungle. But the scythe turned out to be quick-witted. He aroused anger in the cruel glutton against the one who is stronger than him. Mistaking his reflection in the river for a rival, he threw himself into the water and drowned.
Knowledge is power and laughter is a weapon against evil
You can change the ending of the story. Let our lion not drown in the river, but become a universal laughing stock. All the animals gathered on the river bank will laugh at the stupid beast. And the one at whom everyone laughs can no longer be the main one who needs to be feared and obeyed. Knowledge and ingenuity sometimes more important than strength and cruelty - that's the moral of this cautionary tale.
Any number of actors can take part in such a performance. You can diversify the action with a small concert, with which the animals decide to please their bunny friend. The performance will then contain several performances. These will be children's sketches, funny, short, in which the actors will present the animals and their relationships.
Fairy tales in a new way
Children love to act out funny mini-scenes. Can be offered for these purposes famous fairy tales, reinterpreted in a new way. And it’s especially funny when heroes from different works meet in one story.
For example, it is easy to change famous story about “Kolobok”, supplementing it with the fairy tale “Ryaba Hen”. Kids really like such confusion; they laugh when they see that the usual heroes do not act as they always do and find themselves in ridiculous situations.
“A grandfather and grandmother lived in the same village; they had a chicken named Ryaba. Now a chicken has laid an egg, and not just a simple one, but... one made from dough! And the testicle has eyes, a nose, and a mouth. "Who are you? What's your name? - asked the grandmother. “I am Kolobok - a ruddy side, rich like a cake, sweet like ice cream! And now you are my grandparents, you must love and pamper me!” Grandfather and grandmother were delighted and rushed to spoil Kolobok. They offer him all sorts of tasty things: yoghurts and lollipops, juices and fruits. But Kolobok refuses everything and wants to go for a walk in the forest. “You, granddaughter, can’t ride through the forest, there the sly fox will catch you and eat you!” - his grandfather warns him. “I have a mustache myself!” - Kolobok answered and rolled away.
He rolls and rolls, and a fox meets him. "Who are you?" - she asks Kolobok. And then tell her: “I was born from a hen, her son, that is!” The fox was surprised; she had never seen such a chicken. And I thought it was some kind of abnormal chicken, inedible. And he contrived, jumped on the fox’s back and, well, chased her, leading her to the house of the old man and the old woman!
Grandfather and grandmother are sitting, grieving: “Our grandson is missing, the fox will eat him!” And the hen Ryaba consoles them: “Don’t cry, my dears, I’ll lay you another egg, not one made from dough, but a normal one!” Only the grandparents don’t want normal things, they want to see their Kolobok - they already love him. And they began to cry bitterly for him.
And then suddenly they hear someone jumping in the yard. They looked out and laughed: Kolobok riding a fox! This is hilarious!
They caught the redhead by the tail and put her on a chain in the yard: “You will guard the house instead of the dog. Stop hurting defenseless animals in the forest!”
Short skits for camp
Vanya Palkin sits in front of the aquarium in the living corner. He lowered the fishing rod into him and begged goldfish: “Little fish, little fish, make me the strongest in the camp, so that I can knock down Petka Samokhin with one blow! And also make me the most beautiful, so that Lyuska Morozova will fall madly in love with me! I also want to become the smartest so that I can beat everyone at the “What, Where, When” Olympiad!” The head of the camp passes by. He saw such a disgrace and said: “Vanya, get away from the fish! She’s not magical, she’s ordinary!” And then the fish says: “That’s right, I’ve been telling him about this for 2 hours, but he doesn’t understand anything!” They read, damn it, Pushkin, there is no peace from them ... "
To act out funny mini-scenes, you can use the plots of the film magazine “Yeralash”. Funny interludes will bring pleasure to both the audience and the performers themselves.
An unforgettable gift - a scene for the birthday boy
How nice it is when, in addition to the traditional offering, guests act out funny scenes for their birthday! You can improvise. No preparation is required for this presentation.
For improvised speeches to be successful, it is enough to prepare words for each character in advance and print them on paper. It’s also a good idea to choose accessories for outfits: scarves, glasses, hats, umbrellas, galoshes, masks, false beards, mustaches, wigs.
The staging of the fairy tale “Turnip” is going off with a bang. Here the main role is played by the words of the heroes. Participants in the improvisation will need to pronounce their phrase immediately after the words of the author, if he names the hero.
You can come up with cool words for each actor. For example, a grandfather will say: “Oh, if it weren’t for the Internet, your grandfather would have been a sprinter!” You can give the grandmother the words: “Botox, fitness and lipstick - what else does a grandmother need?” The granddaughter will constantly repeat: “Thicker than a turnip - more money We can make money!” and so on. Certain funny gestures should accompany the words: let the grandfather hold his lower back and limp, holding headphones from the player in his ears and slightly twitching to the beat of the music, the grandmother makes eyes and coquettishly straightens her headscarf, and the granddaughter shows her “fat turnip” with her hands. figuratively, that is, huge cheeks.
What's a school holiday without a sideshow?
Usually everything holiday events V educational institutions accompanied by an amateur concert. And funny school skits occupy almost the main place in it.
The plots for these interludes can be taken from the works of Victor Dragunsky. For example, stories about the boys Denis and Mishka make wonderful children's scenes. funny short stories about the Misipisi River or about the fictitious exploits of friends saving children from fire and from under the ice, are relevant to this day, which is why the audience always likes them.
It’s good if there are talented teenagers among schoolchildren who can write a script for a skit on their own, reflecting in the plot some incident that happened in reality. Of course, the names of the characters should be hidden, but the event itself can be displayed. It will be very relevant and interesting. By the way, interludes on a school theme can be used as funny skits for camp, because even during the holidays the children remember about their studies.
