Developing artistry in children is one of the great ways to identify their creativity and determine the direction in which it is best to develop their creative potential. Does your child like to copy the behavior of acquaintances and friends? Staging entire performances in the courtyard, attracting numerous spectators? Does he often hum or gesticulate?
Small theatrical performances, including short and funny children's skits, can be organized even at home. And if someone’s birthday is coming up, then mini-skits will be great entertainment for everyone who comes to congratulate the birthday person.
Mini performances for children
Usually children are happy to join in the game, they like to transform themselves, copying adults, they accurately notice various nuances in the behavior and habits of people they know. When choosing scenarios for a children's party, you need to pay attention to the following points:
- The younger the age of the participants, the shorter and simpler the skits should be.
- It is advisable to diversify the repertoire as much as possible: choose not only parodies that are offered for children of any age, but also riddle scenes and quizzes.
- If possible, conduct one or two rehearsals before the start of the performance, tell your child how best to imagine the character he will play.
- If possible, try to use attributes that will make the production more colorful - costumes for the actors, scenery, items necessary during the action. Children can and should be involved in making decorations - this will also give them a lot of pleasure.
Scenes from everyday life
Children enjoy participating in performances that show funny incidents from their daily lives. Here are the simplest and shortest of these scenes.
How many legs?
This scene requires two actors: a boy and a girl. Its plot is quite simple, so it can be successfully played in front of children 4-6 years old.
A mother (girl) came to pick up her baby (boy) from kindergarten. She is in a hurry, so she sits him on a chair and begins to quickly dress him.
He takes the shoe in his hands and says:
- Raise your leg, son.
The boy obediently raises his right leg. Then mom says:
- No, give me another one.
The son raises his left leg. Mom, looking at the shoe, understands that the right foot was needed after all, but automatically repeats:
- No, son, give me the other leg.
Then the boy indignantly says: “Mom, but that’s all! I’ve run out of legs, I don’t have any others!”
This scene is good not only because of its funny plot. When it’s over, you can discuss with the children why the mother could not explain to her son what kind of leg she needed. What would be the best way to structure a conversation so that everyone understands each other the first time?
Whose pants?
This skit will involve two actors - an older girl (teacher) and a younger girl (kindergarten student). The age difference is not a necessary condition for young actresses; you can simply choose a girl who is taller and smaller.
However, it is important to pay attention to the nuances associated with the characteristics of the roles of young performers, because this will make their performance more believable and memorable!
Kindergarten. Children dress up for a walk. The teacher helps the little slow girl Katya get dressed. Katya tries to put on trousers, but she fails. The teacher begins to help her. When the trousers are put on together, Katya suddenly says:
- These are not my trousers...
The teacher, having expressed her indignation as much as possible, begins to pull the baby’s pants back off. This takes some time. After waiting for the teacher to finish undressing her, Katya decides to clarify:
– These are my sister’s trousers, Sveta, they are warm, and my mother always puts them on for me when it’s very cold, like today...

Scenes from the life of schoolchildren
Archimedes the Confused
Physics lesson. The careless student Kolya suffers near the blackboard. The teacher (an older boy or a heavier build) torments Kolya with questions:
- Kolya, tell us about Archimedes. Kolya squints and suffers; he clearly can tell a little about Archimedes:
- Well, it was such an ancient Greek...
Teacher, delighted:
- Is that so? And what did he become famous for?
Kolya, straining even more:
- Well... Once he was swimming in the bathtub... And how he screamed!
What will he scream, Kolya? – the teacher continues to ask leading questions.
"Eureka!" - Kolya says unexpectedly for himself and happily continues:
- It means “found!”
But the teacher does not give up and continues to torment Kolya with questions:
- Well, what did he find there, Nikolai, probably something interesting?
“Probably...” Colin’s enthusiasm disappears. He clearly doesn’t remember what exactly the famous ancient Greek found in his bathtub. Therefore, hesitantly, looking up at the teacher, he tries to find the correct answer:
– Maybe... a washcloth?
Necessary fire
Schoolboy Sasha was going to the store. On the way, he meets a labor teacher, Viktor Petrovich, who is in a hurry.
- Hello, Viktor Petrovich, where are you running, what happened? he asks.
“Oh, Petrov,” the teacher almost cries, “we have a fire, so I’m running, our office caught fire, can you imagine?
Schoolboy Sasha changes his mind about going to the store and runs after the teacher. Running up to the school, they stop and look at the smoke pouring out of the windows of the labor room.
“Here’s Petrov,” the teacher says upsetly, “now there will be no classes for probably a month.”
- What won't happen? – Sasha asks again.
“There will be no classes, Petrov, your stool will never be finished, your stool probably burned down,” Viktor Petrovich reports upset.
- Who got burned? – Sasha insistently clarifies.
- Stool! Yours! - the teacher raises his voice irritably, - And the scoop, which you’ve been making for the second month! I don’t understand, Petrov, are you deaf or something?
“No, Viktor Petrovich, what are you talking about,” says Sasha, and adds more quietly:
“You talk, and I’ll listen, listen, listen...” and rolls his eyes dreamily.
Sketch games
These are a kind of funny mini-performances that are popular not only with children, but also with adults.
"Photo"
One of the variations of this skit game that children of any age enjoy playing.
Progress of the game:
Children are divided into two groups. One group will improvise, the other will guess. Actors from the first group must make a wish for something: an animal, a profession, a natural phenomenon, heroes of their favorite fairy tales, etc.
Having made a guess, the children begin to move, depicting the actions that are inherent in the characters they have guessed, and another group of participants observes and analyzes. At some point the presenter commands: “photo!” and all the actors from the first group freeze in the position they were in at the time of the command.
Participants in the second group must recognize the hidden characters. After that, they change roles with the members of the first group. The task can be complicated over time by asking the children to stage a performance, for example, on the theme of their favorite fairy tales.
Playing in entertaining mini-scenes is a great way of self-expression for children of any age. This type of creativity, like no other, stimulates the development of fantasy and imagination, gives a great mood and makes any children's holiday unforgettable.

Useful tips for holding a party for children:
1. Choose a scenario taking into account the age of the participants. It is better if the children are about the same age, the age difference is 2-3 years. If there is a larger age difference, choose universal scenarios for children's birthdays, with games and competitions that will be understandable to the little ones and not boring to the big kids.
2. When choosing a children's scenario, be sure to take into account compliance with safety precautions, do not hold games and competitions that have a risk of injuring children. Playing with fire, flammable liquids, sharp objects, running in rooms not equipped with a special anti-slip floor covering, rooms with furniture with sharp corners, etc. are dangerous.
3. To ensure that the adults present are not bored at the children's party, you, as the organizer, need to take care of involving adults in the game or helping the kids in competitions.
4. When choosing a scenario for very young children, try not to overload the scenario with too many and complex games, and also do not use scary characters when dressing up, so as not to scare the kids.
5. Be a good psychologist, try to find an approach to all kids, immediately seeing their character. Don't try to force your child to play or participate in a competition if he doesn't want to. Modest children can stay away for a while, watch the game process, and later, perhaps they themselves will want to join the game. The holiday should bring joy to everyone!
6. When the children's birthday party comes to an end, make sure that all participants are given small souvenirs in memory of your club. These could be refrigerator magnets, children's mugs with your symbols, T-shirts, books, coloring books, paints, other drawing materials, or just small toys. Children love surprises and gifts, and parents will also be pleased.
