Woodpecker: On the nose! Your nose is blue, but young finches are brown!
The characters in the scene go backstage.
Educator: Well, guys, have you guessed who we are going to talk about today? ( children's answers.) Yes, we will talk about birds. People have been celebrating the Bird Festival for a long time. How winter doesn’t resist, doesn’t try to stay with us, it still retreats and leaves. Spring is coming, and with it a bright, warm sun. With the arrival of spring, feathered fidgets fly home, to their homeland - migratory birds. They're in good weather in one day they fly a hundred kilometers - so they are in a hurry to get home. On the way, they are often overtaken by a blizzard, and many of them die. The strongest ones fly. They will fly home, sit in the trees and relax. (A recording of bird voices sounds.)
Today, guys, we will play KVN. KVN-competition in wit and knowledge. You need to have solid knowledge, be cheerful and resourceful.
Teams are formed in advance.
So, we have two teams “Titmouse” and “Bullfinches”, each team has its own captain.
Listen carefully to the rules of the game: each team will be given tasks and questions; if a team does not know the answer, then the other team can answer and earn chips for themselves. Your correct answers will be counted by the jury.

It will still be mine.
3. The back is greenish
The belly is yellowish,
Little black cap
And a strip of scarf.
4. I catch bugs all day
I eat worms
I don’t fly to warm regions,
I live here under the roof

The fourth competition “Captains Competition”.
Captains receive pictures of birds, select them independently, and complete tasks:
Assignment to the captain of the Titmouse- select pictures with sedentary birds.
Assignment to the captain of the "Bullfinches"- select pictures with migratory birds.
In the meantime, the captains are completing their tasks, I will tell you interesting information about one bird...birds have funny names. Many birds named themselves, i.e. got their name from their voice, song or cry. For example, a cuckoo. Everyone heard this bird. Why could she get such a name? Of course, with her cry of peek-a-boo, she herself told people her name. In many countries, the name of the bird sounds very similar to Russian; in the Czech Republic - kukachka, among the Bulgarians - kukvitsa, among the Germans - kukuk, among the Spaniards - cuco. All these peoples paid attention to one and the same sign - the cry of a bird.
Game "Bird's language".
- Now let's play!

Qualifying round
Presenter: I will ask riddles about birds, and you must guess and name this bird.
In a gray feather coat
And in cold weather he is a hero.
Jumps, frolics on the fly, -

On branches decorated with snow fringe,
The ruddy apples grew in winter.
Apples scurry merrily around the apple tree,
Caterpillars are pecking at frozen apples.
(Bullfinches)
This restless bird
Same color as birch.
Vereschunya, white-sided,
And her name is... (Magpie)
Hisses, cackles,
He wants to pinch me
I'm going, I'm afraid of him.
Who is this? … (Goose)
Here's a bird, like a bird,
Not a blackbird, not a titmouse,
Not a swan, not a duck
And not a nightjar.
But this bird
Even though it's small,
Hatches chicks
Only in severe winter.
Carpenter using a sharp chisel
Builds a house with one window.
"I'm knocking on wood,
I want to get a worm!”
Flies all night -
Gets mice.
And it will become light -
Sleep flies into the hollow.
Let me be a small bird,
I, friends, have a habit -
When the cold starts,
I'm flying here.
(Bullfinch)
This bird
Called... (Tit)
Silent during the day
Screams at night
Flying through the forest
It scares passersby.
She walks so importantly through the swamp!
And the swamp creatures run away.
After all, if the frog cannot hide,
No one will help this frog!
She sits on a branch in the forest,
She repeats one “kuckoo”
She counts the years for all of us,
She loses her chicks.
“Peek-a-boo” here and there.
What is this bird's name?
(Cuckoo)
Presenter: 8 participants in the game have been identified. They will fight for victory. After each round, 2 players, having collected the least number of star tokens, automatically leave the game and become fans-spectators, receiving a participant prize. And the winner of the game will be only one participant who has collected the most tokens.
So, the start of the 1st round is announced.
Quiz questions:
Which bird is considered a symbol of wisdom and knowledge? (Owl.)
Who is called a forest doctor? (Woodpecker.)
Why was the bullfinch given a snowy name? (Bullfinches arrive to us with the first snow, and in the spring they fly north to their native lands.)
What birds spend the night burrowing into the snow? (Grouse grouse, hazel grouse.)
Why does the crossbill build nests in winter? (In winter there are a lot of spruce seeds for chicks, but in spring there are none.)
The largest nocturnal bird of prey in the Far East? (Fish owl.)
The results of the first round are summed up, star tokens are counted, 2 participants leave the game having received prizes.
Pause for rest.
The outdoor game “Birds” is played.
Children are divided into two teams. One team will be the “sparrows”, and the other will be the “ravens”.
Before starting the game, the leader agrees with the children what each team will do. For example, “sparrows” will squat, and “crows” will jump onto a bench.
The game begins, the leader commands, slowly pronouncing the first two syllables: “Crows”! Children from the "crow" team must complete their task flawlessly. And vice versa. In this case, it is not at all necessary that the presenter will alternate his commands in sequence; he can shout out the same word twice in a row.
The point of the game is that both the word “sparrows” and the word “crows” have the same first two syllables, so it’s easy for children to get confused.
The player who makes a mistake is eliminated from the game. Thus, there are fewer and fewer participants. Until there is only one left, who becomes the winner.
