Doorbell. The Snow Maiden appears. One. (Santa Claus at this time is outside the door, in the corridor.)

Snow Maiden: Hello, kids! You recognized me? That's right, I'm a Snow Maiden. Do you know what kind of holiday we all celebrate? That's right, New Year. On this day it is necessary to have fun, dance, play and give gifts. Do you know who leads gifts on this day?

He is kind, not at all strict, a beard all overgrown,
He is in a hurry to us now for the holiday. Who is this? (Father Frost)
Who made the rinks for us, brought the streets with snow,
Did you build ice bridges from ice? Who is this? (Father Frost)

That's right, this is Santa Claus! But why is it not? Santa Claus comes only to obedient children. Guys, are there any pranksters among you? (Not!) And the uglys? (Not!) And the mischief? (Not!) And the huts? (Not!) And good kids? (Yes!) Are you obedient children? And do you help parents? (Do you do lessons, study well?). (Yes!) Then Santa Claus must come to you! But where is he, children? Grandfather Moroz probably left us a message in which it is written how we find him. Let's look for him. O! And here is a letter! (The Snow Maiden “finds” a white pure leaf.) But then nothing is visible (demonstrates to the children)! So, you can’t do without a miracle! I have a magic candle. With its help, we will be able to read this letter. (Takes out a candle-salary.)
A candle is fun
Show the letters of the grandfather!

(The Snow Maiden lights a candle with a candle and drives it under a sheet on which it is written in advance “Call me! DM.” The letters appear.)

Who is this mysterious dm? And children, you are not aware? Correctly! This is Grandfather Frost. He writes that we need to call him. Let's shout loudly: "Grandfather Frost!"

(Children are called several times. A knock on the door. Santa Claus appears. Children meet him.)

Father Frost: Hello guys, well, finally, I got to you! Excuse me, the kids that I was late - I got into the forest. Children, do you go to the forest? And when do you go to the forest? - That's right, in the summer (autumn). Truth? (If you have never walked, then “then you have to teach you how in the forest the forest.”) Then show me with the Snow Maiden, as you overcome obstacles in the forest.

Snow Maiden: And here is the first obstacle, this is a stream. (He lays a rope on the floor in the form of a stream of the desired width.) How to overcome a stream? That's right, jump over. (Children jump.) You walk through the forest, and the forest is thicker, and here in the way your fallen tree (pulls a rope with the help of a grandfather slightly below the height of the child). What will you do? That's right, we must bend down and climb under it! Well done! Are you dexterous? (Yes!) Are you strong? (Yes!) Are you brave? (Yes!) Well then, let's go further. Oh, you have a difficult obstacle now! Fairytale swamp! (Lays a rope on the floor around. Santa Claus gives out to children 2 cardboard-following.)

Father Frost: These are my magical traces that will help you overcome it!

Snow Maiden: See how to cross this swamp. (Shows, laying cardboard in turn and in turn becoming a foot on them; children “cross the swamp.”) Well done, children, you know how to overcome obstacles! If you were with Santa Claus, he would definitely not have been lost!

Father Frost: What are you dexterous children, skillful! Surely like to play! Snegurochka, teach the children to play my favorite game "Snowballs"! (The game needs cotton balls-“snowballs” with which the children will rush, and a large container where the children will throw snowballs.)

Snow Maiden: Santa Claus, how will we play snowballs without snow?

Father Frost: I'm a wizard, I’ll plan such a mountain of snow now!

Snow Maiden: No, grandfather! The kids will freeze! Can you make snowballs warm?

Father Frost: Well, warm, so warm. Look! (He takes out a bag with cotton snow, throws them up.) One-two-three, it turned out that, look! (They start playing. Snowballs throw in a bucket. If there are several children, then they compete with each other. If the child is alone, he competes with the Snow Maiden.)

Snow Maiden: (riddles, at the end about snowflakes)
They fall from the sky in the winter
And circle over the ground
Light fluffs,
White ... (Snowflakes.)

Or: tell me the baby, and what do we make snowballs from when we play on the street? (From snow!) And the snow consists of what? (From snowflakes!) Do you know, kids, that all Snowflakes of Grandfather Frost are different? When you go for a walk - be sure to check!

Father Frost: What are you, children, funny, what good ones! You really please me! I want me to open my secret. About snowflakes. (He takes out a large snowflake and shows the children.) Here is one of my snowflakes. Kids, count how many rays she has. (Children believe.) That's right, six. Here he is, my secret. All my snowflakes have exactly six rays! (When the child is quite adult, does not like outdoor games, etc.)

Father Frost: Snow Maiden, but let's check if Vasya knows what I can do! Vasya, here are not melting ice floes. (He takes out decorative glass.) Come on, collect the icicle / snowball from them! (For older children: a snowdrift, a snowman, a Christmas tree, fruits: an apple, a pear, a banana, the letters of the named after Santa Claus, the constellation - a big bear, Cassiopeia. The child and Santa Claus collect figures. Then they guess the figures of each other. Who guessed - the candy. )

Father Frost: Oh, how fun! UV ... (wipes sweat from the forehead.)

Snow Maiden: You are tired, grandfather, sit, rest, and the guys will read poetry, dance or sing a song. (Children make prepared numbers.)

Father Frost: And now I invite you to the New Year's Dance. Do you know my favorite song? Let's sing. (If not - “Let us teach you”; “A Christmas tree was born in the forest.”)

The Forest Raised a Christmas Tree,
She grew up in the forest
In winter and summer, slender, green was.
A blizzard sang a song to her:
"Sleep, Christmas tree, Bai-Bai!"
Frost wrapped with a snowball: "Look, do not freeze!"
The coward of the bunny is gray
I jumped under the Christmas tree.
Sometimes a wolf, an angry wolf, ran through a trot.
And here it is, elegant,
I came to us for the holiday,
And many, many joy brought the kids.

Father Frost: Well, well, the Snow Maiden, we listened to the kids, we sang my beloved song, we still forgot to do something? Of course, my head is gray! - Give gifts!

(Give gifts, photographed, read a congratulatory poem.)

Snow Maiden: Happy New Year, we congratulate and wish that in it,
Good luck awaited you in a small and big business!
So that the children were obedient (so that your Vasya is obedient),
So that everyone is healthy!

Father Frost: In general, happiness, prosperity and success to the whole family!

Together: Happy New Year!
