The team whose members complete the relay the fastest wins.
To complicate the task, you can also include an element of dressing up in the competition. In this case, the participants will pass each other not only a broom, but also a hat or cloak.
Guess what's inside
New Year's games for children can be created based on TV shows. Probably every resident of our country has seen at least one episode of the well-known show “Battle of Psychics.” So, the first test that people with superpowers go through is guessing an object hidden in a black box. You too can find a black box, put something New Year’s themed there and invite guests to check their psychic abilities. Write down each guest's guess on a piece of paper.
To make it more interesting, you need to involve everyone in the game, from young to old. After each guest has made their guess, open the box. What can you put in there? A plate of Olivier salad, a firecracker, a Santa Claus mask, or a bottle of champagne. If there is a guest in the company who guesses the contents of the box, then he will become the rightful owner of the item previously hidden from prying eyes.
New Year's words
This is an interesting game for children. New Year's because it has a festive focus. We all know the game of cities. So - it will be something vaguely similar. The presenter must think of a word that is somehow connected with For example, Snow Maiden. Now the children must name the words in a circle. First with the letter “S”, then with “H”, then with “E”, etc. If the child cannot come up with a word, he is eliminated. To complicate the task, you should name only those items that are associated with the winter holiday. For example, with the letter “S” you can come up with “snow” or “snowman”, and with “N” - “night”, “ Christmas mood" This competition will allow children to learn to think quickly and make decisions in a difficult situation.
We decorate the Christmas tree
New Year's games and competitions for children can be arranged in moderation. At the same time, the guys will not destroy your house if you direct their irrepressible energy in the right direction. For example, you can invite them to dress up their friend. Two children should be dressed in green sweaters. And the rest of the children will be given a battery-powered garland and plastic Christmas tree decorations. You can also add tinsel, rain and snowflakes cut out of paper to your arsenal. In general, any will do. Turn on the stopwatch and give the two teams the go-ahead. In a minute, the guys will have to dress up their friend in a green sweater. The team that best decorates the Christmas tree will win. To make this competition more New Year's, you should turn on not a stopwatch, but a recording of the chimes.
Let's make a snowman
To come up with interesting New Year's games and competitions for children, you need to use your imagination. You can invite them to do familiar things in an unusual way. For example, making snowmen. How to do it?
The guys should be divided into pairs. By the way, adults can also take part in this competition, for example, parents or relatives of children. Two people are tied together with a scarf. They should put one arm around each other's back. Each person has one hand free. And it is with them that they will sculpt. The task is quite simple. You need to make a snowman in the allotted 3-5 minutes. But it will be a difficult task, you will have to learn to work in a team. You cannot give hints or advice to teams. But watching and being inspired by the work of your opponents is not prohibited.
Head-tail
New Year's outdoor games for children should be invented by adults. Otherwise, the guys might inadvertently get hurt and have a fight. Follow the rule that if you can’t stop the madness, then you need to lead it. What to offer children? There is an entertaining game called "Catch the Head". The guys become a train and take each other by the waist. Now the task of the tail is to catch up with the head. And accordingly, those who stand at the beginning of the train must run away. In this case, hands cannot be detached from the body of the comrade standing in front. When the tail has caught up with the head, the game is considered over. A second round can also be held. In it, those guys who headed the locomotive and those who stood at the end of it change places. Accordingly, their tasks are now opposite.
Poetry competition
How well do you know poetry? Typically, adults are less savvy in this area than children. But it also happens the other way around. New Year's games for children at home can be played in the form of an intellectual battle. For example, invite the children to compete in their knowledge of poetry. Indeed, in most cases, children learn them just for show, because they are asked at school. But this knowledge is so ingrained in our consciousness that some adults with little training can reproduce seemingly forgotten lines of poetry. Try having a contest and see who wins. You can compete like this: the older generation against the younger. Or each participant can take the rap for themselves. The rules should be set individually in each situation.
Stickers
What New Year's games and entertainment are there for children? Some of them are active, others can be carried out festive table. Stickers are a relaxing game. Children of all ages, starting from 4 years old, can take part in it. Each participant is given a pencil or pen and colored sticky paper. Players write or draw an image of a cartoon character or animal on their piece of paper. You can set rules and draw or write only what is directly related to the holiday. Now each player sticks his piece of paper on the forehead of his neighbor on the right. Then you need to give the participants time to familiarize themselves with all the pictures and words around them. And then you can start playing.
Each child takes turns asking a question that can be answered “yes” or “no.” For example, am I prickly? If the answer sounds yes, you can ask another question. If it is negative, then the right of move goes clockwise. The player who guesses his word first wins.
Colors
This is one of the popular entertainments for children. The game has the following rules: children stand in a circle, and the leader is located on the side of them. He announces the colors. For example, it starts with green. Each of the children must look around and find the nearest person who has something green in his clothes. He must run up to it and touch the colored spot with his hand. The last one to complete this task is eliminated. You can also discuss in the rules that children can use not only clothes, but also hair. For example, if voiced Brown color, then you can find the nearest brown-haired man. You also need to say in advance that you should pay close attention to your clothes. The player who turns out to be the fastest and most attentive wins.
Draw Santa Claus
Don’t know what competitions to hold for children? Do New Year's games and entertainment seem too trivial? Invite the children to draw. Most children simply love this process. But not all of them go to art school, and therefore the result of their creativity may not be very attractive. To equalize the chances of winning for everyone present, you can invite children to draw blindly. You should blindfold the children with a scarf, put a blank sheet of paper in front of each one and give them a pencil. The task should be presented as quite difficult: to draw Santa Claus. The results of this artistic activity are most often very funny. The wizard's head, body and legs are in different places. The main thing is to tell the children not to take this game seriously and not to be upset because of their failure.
What does it weigh here?
What New Year's games are there for children near the Christmas tree? One of them is a memory test. This game will not only amuse the children, but will also help develop their attentiveness and observation skills. Adults should make sure that no one cheats. No more than 8 children can take part in this entertainment. The guys will participate in the competition in pairs.
You should take the children to the Christmas tree. The first player is given 20 seconds to memorize. The second participant at this time stands with his back to the green beauty. When the last second has passed, the child studying the Christmas tree turns away from it and voices out the toys that he has remembered. After this, another player is tested. Whoever could remember the most toys won. The rest of the children will have to study the tree from other sides. Parents will also be able to train their own memory.
Fanta
A fun New Year's game is completing tasks. Each of the guys takes off some item of clothing. This could be a hairpin, ring, chain or favorite toy. All these things fit into a glass or hat. Now each of the guys writes an assignment. If children do not have creative thinking, adults should help them in this part. You should generate fun but easy tasks that the child can complete. The pieces of paper are also immersed in some container. The presenter alternately places his hand in both containers. First, he takes out the child’s personal item. He will be the person who has to complete the task. The presenter will pull it out. This game helps children relax and feel more confident.
New Year's karaoke
This competition is loved by both big and small kids. New Year's musical games for children are a favorite pastime. Karaoke can be held different ways. One of the simplest is to play songs with lyrics and have the children sing along with the lead singer. You need to prepare in advance for the more complicated version of the competition. You should find soundtracks of famous children's New Year's songs. Each child is given words. And now the participants must take turns performing their favorite hits.
This musical game for children is New Year's party is a huge success. If the guys are shy and don’t want to sing alone, they can be combined into teams. And if such singing is carried out in front of a large crowd of people, it is advisable to rehearse the repertoire in advance.
Photo competition
New New Year's games for children in most cases require the use of gadgets. You can hold a rather interesting selfie contest. To do this, it is not necessary for the child to have a personal phone. He can use the parent one. And don’t worry that the guys won’t figure it out. A child already at 3 years old knows where the camera is on the phone and how to use it.
The photo competition is held as follows. Each participant is given a task. For example, draw a bunny. But it must be said that it will be filmed not on video, but on camera. So the child should fold his ears from his hands and show his teeth. The next candidate can depict a Christmas tree, tangerine, etc. After the photo shoot is completed, you should connect the phone to the TV and select best photo by voting of guests. You can also involve adults in the game. For them, you should choose images of famous actors, film stars or simply media personalities.
Hide and seek in the dark
This game is very reminiscent of the good old blind man's buff. Children love active entertainment, so they need to be given the opportunity to burn off their energy. Unlike classic blind man's buff, there is no leader in this game. All participants are blindfolded. Now each player needs to be untwisted and allowed to walk around the room. It is advisable that the premises have big size, and so that it is not crowded with pieces of furniture and a Christmas tree. Children will walk and bump into each other. And when two guys meet, they must determine by touch who is standing in front of them and say the person’s name. The guessed player is eliminated. The winner is the one who can best identify his comrades by touch. The game can be upgraded. For example, to prevent children from falling during a collision, immediately put them on all fours. In this case, one player has the opportunity to crawl away from the other.

Upon entering the room, you need to look at your branches and say what has changed. Depending on age, you can make the tasks more difficult or easier.
Games and competitions with Father Frost and Snow Maiden
Round dances
The traditional New Year's round dance can be complicated and made more entertaining. The leader sets the tone for the round dance, changes the pace of movement and direction. After one or two circles, the round dance can be led like a snake, maneuvering between guests and furniture. The steeper the loops of the snake, the merrier. The presenter can come up with ideas as he goes along. various options: include those not participating in the round dance in the chain, sharply slow down, etc.
Decorate the Christmas tree
There are two artificial Christmas trees. “There are only a few minutes left until the New Year,” says the Snow Maiden, “and these trees are not decorated yet.” Perhaps there will be two clever people in the hall who will quickly do this. Toys made of cardboard, papier-mâché and other unbreakable ones are laid out on tables 5-6 steps from the tree. But completing the Snow Maiden’s task is not so easy.
The Snow Maiden reports that a short circuit has occurred, and the Christmas trees will have to be decorated in the dark (blindfolded). Perhaps someone will hang their toys on their neighbor's Christmas tree, but the one whose Christmas tree turns out to be the most decorated will win.
Toy in a circle
Santa Claus invites the participants to stand facing each other. Music begins to play, and a toy, for example a doll with the image of the Snow Maiden, passes from hand to hand and moves in a circle. The music stops, the transfer of the toy stops. The one who has the doll left is out of the game. The game continues until one person remains. If there are a lot of players, you can throw several dolls in a circle.
Compliments to the Snow Maiden
Santa Claus calls into the circle a young man who wants to play, who must compliment the Snow Maiden, taking matches from an apple completely studded with matches. Santa Claus gives it to the player before the start of the competition.
Snowballs
You need to throw 6 “snowballs” - white tennis balls - into a hanging (or standing on the floor) basket from a distance of 6-7 steps. The one who copes with this task most accurately will win.
Fluffy snowflakes
The Snow Maiden invites several guests to take light cotton snowflakes from the tray. Each player throws up his own snowflake and, blowing on it, tries to keep it in the air as long as possible. The one who dropped his fluff can go up to his friend and help him complete the Snow Maiden’s task.
Magic words
The game is led by the Snow Maiden, she invites two teams of 10 people each, hands them a set of large letters that make up the word “Snow Maiden”. Each participant receives one letter. The task is as follows: in the story read by the Snow Maiden, there will be words made up of these letters. As soon as such a word is pronounced, the owners of the letters that make it up must step forward and, rearranging themselves, form this word. The team that is ahead of its opponents gets a point.
Sample story
A fast river rose. Snow fell on the fields. The mountain behind the village turned white. And the bark on the birch trees sparkled with frost. Somewhere the runners of a sleigh are creaking. Where are they headed?
Centipede racing
In a fairly spacious room you can hold centipede races. The players are divided into two teams and line up behind each other, taking the standing with hands by the belt. A chair is placed at the opposite wall, which the chain of players must go around and then return back. If the chain is broken, the leader can count the team a loss. The task can be complicated and made funnier if the teams move half-crouched, if both teams complete the task at the same time.
A variation of this game is "Snake". The “head” - the first in the column - must catch the “tail”, which eludes it. Having caught it, the “head” moves to the end of the column, and the game is repeated again. The “broken” links of the chain are considered losers and leave the game.
Two Frosts
A group of guys is at one end of the hall (room) beyond the conventional line. The drivers - Frosts - are in the middle of the hall. They address the guys with the words:
We are two young brothers, (Together): Two daring frosts.
I am Frost the red nose.
I am Frost the blue nose.
Which one of you will decide
Set off on a path?
Everyone answers:
We are not afraid of threats, and we are not afraid of frost! The players run to the other side of the hall beyond the home line. Both Frosts catch and “freeze” those running across. They immediately stop at the place where they were “frozen.” Then the Frosts again turn to the players, and they, having answered, run across the hall, helping out the “frozen”: they touch them with their hand, and they join the others.
Auction Santa Claus says:
We have a wonderful Christmas tree in our hall. And what toys she has on her! Name which ones you know Christmas decorations? The person with the last answer will win this amazing prize.
The players take turns calling out the words. During pauses, the presenter begins to count slowly: “Clapper - one, clapper - two...” The auction continues.
Prank game
Santa Claus announces to the audience that none of those present will be able to repeat after him the three short phrases that he will say. Of course, no one will agree with him. Then Santa Claus, as if looking for words, says a short phrase. For example: “Today is a wonderful evening.” Everyone confidently repeats this phrase. Santa Claus, embarrassed, looks for and hesitantly says the second phrase. It is also easy for everyone to repeat. Then he quickly and joyfully says: “Well, you were wrong!” The crowd protests. And Santa Claus explains that his third phrase, which had to be repeated, was: “Well, you were wrong!”
Two are better than one
Some three toys are placed on the floor: a ball, a cube, and a skittle. Two players come out and start dancing around them (the game can be played to music). As soon as the music stops or Santa Claus gives the command “Stop!”, each player must try to grab two toys. Whoever gets one loses. The game can be complicated: increase the number of participants and, accordingly, the number of toys or objects. The one who grabs the most toys wins.
Under a lucky star
The winner of this game will be the one who first finds the star hanging from the ceiling with the number announced by the presenter. Stars with a number written large on both sides are pre-hung on threads from the ceiling of the room (or hall) where the dancing will take place. As the dance progresses, the music stops for a minute, and Santa Claus proclaims: “Lucky star 15!” The dancers try to quickly find the star with this number. The winner is awarded a prize.
Watch your back
Father Frost or the Snow Maiden gives various commands to those standing in the circle, and they must be carried out only if the word “please” is added to the command, for example, “Please, hands up”, “Lower your right hand!”, “Please clap your hands” and etc. The game is played fun, at a fast pace. Those who make a mistake leave the game. The person who remains is awarded the title of “Most Attentive Guest” and is awarded a prize.

Is she cackling?
Quacks?

Tear the newspaper
Santa Claus chooses 2 participants in the competition. The task is to tear the newspaper as quickly and as small as possible. With one hand, right or left, it doesn’t matter - tear the newspaper into small pieces, while the hand is extended forward, you cannot help with your free hand. Who will do the smallest job?
Fairy tale
When you have at least 5-10 guests (age does not matter), offer them this game. Take a children's book with a fairy tale (the simpler the better, “Ryaba Hen”, “Kolobok”, “Turnip”, “Teremok”, etc. are ideal). Choose a leader (he will be the reader). From the book, write down all the characters of the fairy tale on separate pieces of paper, including, if the number of people allows, trees, stumps, a river, buckets, etc. All guests pull out pieces of paper with roles. The presenter begins to read the fairy tale, and all the characters “come to life”....
Laughing
Any number of participants can play. All participants in the game, if it is a free area, form a large circle. In the center is the driver (Santa Claus) with a handkerchief in his hands. He throws the handkerchief up, while it flies to the ground everyone laughs loudly, the handkerchief is on the ground - everyone calms down. As soon as the handkerchief touches the ground, this is where the laughter begins, and from the funniest we take a forfeit - this is a song, a poem, etc.
Rope
It is necessary that the majority of those gathered have not played it before. In an empty room, a long rope is taken and a labyrinth is stretched so that a person, while passing, crouches somewhere and steps somewhere. Having invited the next player from the next room, they explain to him that he must go through this labyrinth blindfolded, having first remembered the location of the rope. The audience will give him hints. When the player is blindfolded, the rope is removed. The player sets off, stepping and crawling under a non-existent rope. Spectators are asked in advance not to give away the secret of the game.
Roll
This game will help all your guests get to know each other. Guests sitting at the table pass a roll of toilet paper around. Each guest tears off as many scraps as he wants, the more the better. When each guest has a stack of scraps, the host announces the rules of the game: each guest must tell as many facts about himself as he has torn scraps.
With signs
At the entrance, each guest receives his new name - a piece of paper with the inscription is attached to his back (giraffe, hippopotamus, mountain eagle, bulldozer, bread slicer, rolling pin, cucumber, etc.). Each guest can read what the other guests are called, but, naturally, cannot read what he himself is called. The task of each guest is to find out his new name from the others throughout the evening. Guests can only answer “Yes” or “No” to questions. The first one to find out what is written on his piece of paper wins.
Joke game
All guests stand in a circle and put their hands on each other's shoulders. The presenter (Santa Claus) says “duck” or “goose” in everyone’s ear (scattered, say “duck” to more players). Then he explains the rules of the game: “If I now say: “Goose,” then all the players whom I called so will tuck one leg. And if “Duck,” then the players whom I called “Duck” will tuck both legs.” You are guaranteed a heap.
Mysterious chest
Each of the two players has their own chest or suitcase, in which various items of clothing are folded. The players are blindfolded, and at the leader’s command they begin to put on things from the chest. The players' task is to dress up as quickly as possible.

We're all rolling a snowball,
We all count to five.
One two three four five -
Sing a song for you!
Whoever has a “snowball” on the last phrase fulfills this wish. The last phrase can be changed: “And read poetry to you!”, “Let’s dance for you!”, “Tell you a fairy tale!” and so on.
"Anecdote "with a beard""
The contestants take turns telling jokes. If one of those present knows the continuation, the narrator is given a “beard”, which is replaced by a piece of cotton wool. The one who ends up with fewer pieces of cotton wool wins.
"Cooking Competition"
Within a certain time (for example, 5 minutes), the participants in the game must create a New Year's menu. All dishes in it must begin with the letter "N" (New Year). Dishes on the menu for Father Frost must begin with the letter "M", and for the Snow Maiden - with the letter "S". The one with the largest menu wins.
“I’ll sing now!”
On New Year's Day, it is customary to sing songs and dance around the Christmas tree. But this activity can be diversified. For example, when the presenter claps, everyone begins to sing the famous song “The little Christmas tree is cold in winter...”. At the second clap, singing aloud stops, but all participants in the game continue to sing to themselves. On the third clap, everyone starts singing out loud again. The one who enters incorrectly is eliminated.
"Fairy tale character"
Cards are laid out on the table with the names of fairy-tale characters and cartoon characters written on them (with the inscriptions facing down). The participant in the game pulls out any card and, after reading what is written there, must, using facial expressions, gestures, and characteristic sounds, portray this character so that those present understand who they are talking about. The first person to guess pulls out the next card.
"Cinderella"
The game involves two people. Each participant is blindfolded and asked to disassemble his own slide, in which peas, beans, lentils, and dried rowan are mixed (the ingredients can be changed depending on what is in the house). Blindfolded participants sort the fruits into groups. The one who completes the task first wins.
"Mystery Prize"
A small gift(notebook, pen, etc.) is wrapped in paper, onto which a piece of paper with a riddle is glued. Once again they wrap it in paper and again glue the piece of paper with the riddle on it. There can be any number of such layers, it all depends on the number of players. The participant unfolds one layer of paper, reads the riddle to himself and says the answer out loud. Then he unfolds the next layer, reads the riddle again to himself and says the answer. If he doesn't know the answer, he reads the riddle out loud. The first one to solve this riddle unrolls the next layer of paper. The winner is the one who, having solved the last riddle, gets to the gift.
Participants in the game name the numbers in order. Those who get the number 5 or its multiples say “ding-ding.” Those who get the number 7 and its multiples say “ding-diling.” The one who makes a mistake is eliminated from the game.

"Riddles"
Each participant in the game has a piece of paper attached to their back with the name of an animal, object, etc. (for example, an elephant, a pen, a pear, an airplane), but so that the players do not know what is written on their pieces of paper.

Tricks
Learn these simple tricks and... New Year's Eve in the eyes of your guests you will become an unrivaled magician.
Thread on a jacket
You notice a white thread on your jacket and try to brush it off, but the thread remains on the jacket. Then you grab it by the tip and pull. To your surprise (and the surprise of other people), she continues on. You pull further and further until several meters of thread run out.
The secret of the trick: Before performing a trick, you put a small pencil in the inner pocket of your jacket, onto which several meters of thread are wound from a spool. Use a needle to push the tip of the thread through the fabric of the jacket to the outside. The main thing is that there are no traces left in your pocket after the demonstration of the trick, if particularly vigilant spectators decide to inspect your pockets. That's why the thread is wound around the pencil.
Three glasses and paper
Place two glass glasses on the table at some distance from one another. Place a sheet of paper on top.
Take the third glass in your hands and invite the audience to place it between the two glasses on a sheet of paper so that the paper does not bend. Of course, no one succeeds. Then you demonstrate your “magical” abilities.
The secret of the trick: Fold a sheet of paper like an accordion along the long side, then it can easily support the weight of even a glass cup.
Magic rope
You sit down at a table in front of the audience, show them a rope, put it on the table and say: “I will tie a knot in this rope without using my hands.”
After this, cross your arms over your chest. Taking one end of the rope with your left hand and the other with your right, you spread your arms to the sides. There really was a knot in the rope!
The secret of the trick: There is no special secret here. You just need to take a rope at least 1 meter long. And, of course, carefully rehearse the act in order to be able to grab both ends of the rope from the table.
Magic "patch"
You ask the audience for two coins in denominations of 1 and 5 rubles. Place a 1 ruble coin on a small piece of paper, draw a mark around it with a pencil and then carefully cut out a hole with a diameter equal to this 1 ruble coin. After this, invite the audience to insert a 5-ruble coin into this hole. Nobody has any idea how to do this. Then you can easily solve the proposed problem.
The secret of the trick: Of course, a 5-ruble coin will not fit into such a small hole. But if you bend a piece of paper in half so that the fold line runs through the center of the hole, the hole will turn into a gap. Stretch the paper a little - the diameter of the hole is enough for a coin to slip through it with ease.
Without getting your hands wet
Take a large flat plate, place a coin on it and pour in a small amount of water until it covers the coin. Then ask the audience to take the coin without getting their hands wet.
The secret of the trick: You light a piece of paper and put it in a glass. Then quickly turn the glass over and place it on a plate near the coin. When the paper in the glass burns and goes out, the water from the plate will collect under it, and the coin will end up in a dry place.
Three layouts
Take any 21 cards and arrange them face up into three cards in seven rows. You should end up with three vertical columns of seven cards each. Invite one of the spectators to remember one card and say which column it is in. Carefully, one by one, place the cards in each column into piles, and then all the piles into one pile. In this case, a stack of cards from the column with the selected card must be placed in the middle between the other two. Then turn the stack face down, again arrange the cards in three columns of seven cards each, and again ask the spectator to indicate which column contains the chosen card. Fold the cards into columns and place the indicated column of cards in the middle again. And finally, lay out the cards for the third time and again place the column with the selected card between the other two. Count out ten cards. The eleventh card comes out.
The secret of the trick: the main thing is to always place the column with the hidden card between the other two.
Tricky trick
Take a deck of cards. Invite one of the spectators to choose and remember a card and put it on top of the deck without showing it to you. Then remove the deck and place its lower part on top. Lay out the cards face up and accurately indicate the hidden card.
The secret of the trick: To find the hidden card, we'll use a little trick. Before demonstrating the trick, we remember the lowest card of the deck. Now, when laying out the deck, the hidden card will lie in front of the card that we spied.
Guessed card
You invite four spectators to sit at the table with you. You deal five cards to everyone. After this, the spectators must remember one card each from those in their hands. You collect the cards and lay them out on the table in five piles. Spectators choose one of the piles. You take the cards and fan them out to the audience. Then you ask which of them sees their card. Having received the answer, you accurately indicate the card that they remember.
The secret of the trick: You start collecting cards from the spectator who sits to your left and then go clockwise. Moreover, you collect all five cards at once, and not one at a time. Your cards will be the last to be collected, and they will be at the top of the deck. When you then arrange the cards into five piles, any one of them contains the cards in the order in which the spectators sit at the table. If, for example, a third spectator identifies “his” card, it will be third, counting from the top of the pile, etc.
Kings and ladies
Kings and queens are selected from the deck. You place them in front of the audience in two rows - separately for kings and separately for queens. You stack the cards, placing a stack of kings on top of a stack of queens. The resulting deck of eight cards can be removed by spectators any number of times. Then you hide the cards behind your back, take out two cards and show them to the audience. They see that it is the king and queen of the same suit.
The secret of the trick: Initially, you stack the cards so that the sequence of suits in both decks is the same. Behind your back, you divide the deck into two four-card decks and take the top card from each mini-deck. It will always be the king and queen of the same suit.
Intended number
Invite one of the spectators to think of a number. After this, the spectator must multiply it by 2, then add 8, divide by 2 and subtract the number he has in mind. After a significant pause, you announce that the resulting number is 4.
The secret of the trick: There is no secret, pure mathematics!
