With the beginning of December, there is a slight feeling of the approaching holiday in the air, which intensifies every day. The year is ending, which means it’s time for the New Year holidays. As the New Year approaches, the question of how to celebrate it becomes increasingly pressing. The Blue Light on TV, Olivier and champagne have not been canceled, but I want something new, fun and unusual. An idea with a themed party will come to the rescue. This is one of the best ways to celebrate the holiday in an original and unforgettable way.
Born in the USSR
The era of the Soviet Union ended not long ago, and many still remember how it was. New Year tree, young parents, a neighbor dressed as Santa Claus and confetti from firecrackers. All this can be repeated. Only now to be in the role of young parents. Children will also not refuse such an idea; they are probably interested in how their father and mother celebrated the New Year when they were little.
A USSR-style Christmas tree should be decorated with glass balls, paper lanterns and flags. There is always a red star on top, and under the tree there are figures of the Snow Maiden and Father Frost. Homemade snowflakes made of paper and foil should be hung around the room.
Fragments of the costume can be pioneer ties and caps, checkered shirts, modest dresses or school uniforms of those times. Children can dress up in carnival costumes of a wolf, a bunny, or a snowflake.
On the table there must be “Soviet champagne”, Olivier salad, sandwiches with sprats, “herring under a fur coat” and tangerines.
For entertainment, the priority is poems to Santa Claus, round dances around the Christmas tree, firecrackers and cheerful congratulations.
Superhero Family
On the magical last night of the passing year, everything is possible. Even become superheroes. The whole family. Spider-Man, Captain America, Superman, Batman, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Wolverine, Iron Man and other super characters with super powers can find themselves at the same table.
It is better to purchase costumes or make them yourself in advance. It is also advisable to think about the menu in advance. After all, you can’t come up with super drinks and super dishes in 5 minutes. And you don’t have to bother. Just put a sign next to each dish with an inscription like: “Super sandwich” or “Super roast”. And come up with an ability that will appear after you eat such a treat. Decorate the room with comic book garlands, superhero cartoon figures, Spider-Man's web, balloons and tinsel.
For entertainment, games in the style of “who is taller, faster, stronger” are suitable, but, of course, children should win. It is not difficult for adults to give in. It’s also fun to throw darts, knock down pins and even just read poetry, who knows more.
pirate Party
Vests, bandanas with skulls, an earring, a blindfold and pistols. And also binoculars, a beard and a pirate cocked hat. Everyone at least once in their life wanted to become a robber. At least for one night. And such a night is very soon. New Year's. It's time to make your children's wishes come true. Even if it’s just for one night. And the family will support in any case, especially children.
You can use homemade pirate flags in the design. A globe, ropes, old maps, compasses and binoculars will help create a themed atmosphere.
The festive table can be decorated with shells of different sizes, coins and playing cards.
Entertainment is offered by tug of war, tying sea knots for speed, and playing darts and dice. Children can be occupied with searching for symbolic treasures, after hiding them.
New Year's karaoke
What would New Year be without a soulful song or several! Karaoke lovers will appreciate the decision to sing all night long. Especially in those families where the children are no longer small, but have not yet “flyed out of the parental nest.” They are no longer interested in running around dressed as a snowflake or a snowman, but many teenagers will enjoy becoming a pop star. The main thing is not to forget to agree with your neighbors about songs until the morning. It’s better to invite them too.
For room decor, fake microphones, CDs and records hung on the walls, and sheet music instead of snowflakes are suitable.
The suit must also match. Since this is a solo performance, the outfit should be appropriate.
The list of songs, prepared in advance, is dropped into the hat. Each name is on a separate sheet. Then you can draw one by one: whoever gets which song gets to perform it.
If you really want to, you can celebrate the New Year in such a way that it will be remembered for a very long time. In a good way. You just have to decide on the topic, prepare a little and tune in to the positive.
