Chunga-Changa. Children, which of you got a badge with the image of Chung-Changa? You to my team!
Cheburashka. Children, if Cheburashka is depicted on your badge, then you should come to me!
Antoshka. And I will be glad to the guys who have a badge with the image of Cheburashka!
Shapoklyak. Well, children, you have to admit that you were able to team up very quickly. So be it, I'll give you hints! These are route maps. Follow the route indicated on the map. If you complete the tasks that await you along the way, you can find the hidden notes.
Please note that on the reverse side of the card there is a musical staff, which is unlocked with a treble clef. This is a music house. Put there all the notes that you find. After the entire route has been completed, count the number of notes found. The team that collects the most notes wins.
Shapoklyak gives teams route sheets. On one side of the sheet is a diagram of the movement of children through the stations (each team has its own sequence of movement), on the other side is a musical staff. Children perform tasks at the stations, for each correctly completed task they receive a note, and then stick it on the stave.
Shapoklyak. Each team has exactly five minutes to complete tasks at each station. An hourglass will help you keep track of time. ( Gives each hero an hourglass. Children go after the characters according to the map-scheme. )
Description of tasks
Station "Multi-Pulti"
The station is located on the section of the senior group.
Lost notes are hidden in pictures - frames from cartoons, songs to which were written by V. Shainsky. The team is invited to listen to the song, guess what cartoon it is from, find a picture with a frame from this cartoon. For each correct answer, the team receives a note.
An optional task can be performed. On the reverse side of each picture, another frame of the cartoon is encrypted. Turning the pictures over and putting them together as one puzzle, you need to guess what song sounds in this cartoon, then sing this song (i.e., voice the picture) and name the cartoon. For the correct answer, the team receives an additional note. After completing the tasks, the received notes of the team are glued to the stave (or the notes are depicted on the stave). At this station you can get from 0 to 9notes.
Encrypted songs: "Cheburashka" (words by E. Uspensky, from the film "Cheburashka", "Cheburashka and his friends"), "A grasshopper sat in the grass" (lyrics by N. Nosov, from the film "Adventures Dunno"), "Terrible Interesting" (words by G.
Auster, from the cartoon "38 Parrots"), "Mammoth Song" (words by D. Nepomnyashchiy, from the cartoon "Mom for a Mammoth"), "Smile" (lyrics M. Plyatskovsky, from the movie "Baby Raccoon"), "Clouds" (lyrics by S. Kozlov, from the movie "Shake! Hello!"), "Katerok", "Chunga-Changa" (lyrics by Y.

Timofeevsky, from the film "Cheburashka" ).
Music Video Station
The station is located in a corner of the forest. The team needs to choose a song for the video, come up with a plot, assign roles, select costumes and attributes, and then stage the song. Children show a performance to the music, the "cameraman" shoots a video clip, the character participates in the scene. For the completed task, the "operator" hands over a note, which the children stick on the route sheet.
Songs for the video clip: "Antoshka", "Chunga-Changa" (lyrics by Y.
Entin), "I'm lying in the sun" (lyrics by S. Kozlov), "Cheburashka" (lyrics by E. Uspensky).
Arrangement station
The station is located on the sports ground. With the help of a lottery, a song is selected for arrangement (decorating the sound of the song with unusual sounds). To do this, you need to make musical instruments from improvised and waste material: rustlers, stalks, maracas, drums, buzzers, etc. After the children make musical instruments, they perform a song in an arrangement, and the team gets a note. Using a voice recorder or other sound recording device will help you later reproduce and analyze the arrangement.
Songs to be arranged: “A soldier is walking through the city” (lyrics by M. Tanich), “Twice two is four” (lyrics by M. Plyatskovsky), “Blue wagon” (lyrics by E. Uspensky), “The dog is gone” ( words by A. Lamm), “Cruiser Aurora” (lyrics by M. Matusovsky), “In Secret to the Whole World” (lyrics by M.
Tanich).
Guess the Melody Station
The station is located on the path at the main entrance. Children are invited to guess songs by melodies (performed on a musical instrument) and sing a fragment of a song.
Guessing songs: “Let them run awkwardly” (lyrics by A. Timofeevsky), “Doll” (lyrics by S. Alikhanov, A. Zhigarev), “Adults and Children” (lyrics by M. Tanich), “Childhood” ( words by A. Osipova), “What they teach at school” (lyrics by L. Kaganov), “Song about dad” (lyrics by M. Tanich), “Antoshka”, “Chunga-Changa” (lyrics by Y. Entin), “Song of a Lion Cub and Turtles" (lyrics by S. Kozlov), "Song of a Mammoth" (lyrics by D. Nepomniachtchi). For each guessed melody, the team receives a note. A team can earn from 0 to 10 notes.
After completing the tasks, the teams gather at the main entrance and present their route sheets. The number of notes collected by each team is counted.
Shapoklyak ( after the teams have completed all tasks ).
Well, kids, I suggest you check if you found all the notes. To do this, you need to perform the flash mob again to the song "It's fun to walk together."
This time the music of the song does not stop, but continues to the end, which means that the teams were able to find all the missing notes.
The heroes name the winning team. Awards are given and medals are given to teams.
Master. Let's draw with crayons on the pavement the heroes of Shainsky's songs that you remember the most! And our cartoon friends will guess who you drew.
Children draw with crayons on asphalt.
Shapoklyak. Guys, I propose to watch the video clips that you yourself came up with, and then arrange a disco to the songs of Vladimir Shainsky.

Guess what sounds.
For this game you will need a few items that are in every house. For example, a glass bottle, a saucepan, a plate, a glass, a porcelain cup. Take a pencil by the very tip and tap on each object in turn. Then, ask the child to turn away and tap on any one object. When the baby turns to you, give the pencil to him and let him guess which object you tapped on. At the beginning of the game, do not take a lot of items, in order to enjoy the game, it should not be too difficult. First, the child will guess by trial method. That is, he will knock on each object until he hears the right sound. If he makes a mistake, try again. The more often you play this game, the better the child will be guided in the sound of these objects. You can start playing this game with a child from about 3 years old. Gradually, it can be made more difficult.
For example, add other objects that sound similar, or guess the sound of not one object, but a sequence of sounds.
