Not knowing what lies ahead
Embrace each other, if it is given to suffer,

Home quest - a way to give any gift in an original and fun way, turning it into an interesting, exciting game. Why such a name? In general, a quest is a kind of game with various ciphers and riddles that lead to the main prize along the chain.

Main idea: the surprise is hidden in a secluded place, and the player is given a message-riddle-indication with a hint where to look for the next note. Solving all the riddles leads the player to the place where the gift is located. The simplest version of this entertainment is an indoor quest.

Ready scripts for the quest. Detailed information can be viewed by clicking on the image of interest.

Original birthday greetings - an exciting adventure with the search for a hidden gift from notes

Training

So, your task is to make the player find a gift in right place after solving a series of riddles or completing mini tasks. For this you need:

  1. Decide on a secluded place where you hide the gift.
  2. Make a chain of items that are in your house, which will lead to a hidden gift (the end point in it is the place where the gift will lie). Hints-tasks can be hidden in the most different places- from washing machine and oven to the mailbox in the entrance. The chain must be carefully thought out so that the items do not intersect along the way and do not lead ahead of time to the gift.
  3. Come up with and beautifully arrange messages-riddles-instructions.
  4. Arrange all the messages in their places. In order not to get confused, you can number them and draw up a layout diagram for yourself.

The optimal number of stages is from 6 to 10: more can make the quest tedious, and less can make the quest too fleeting. But this, of course, is a general recommendation - perhaps you will get a wonderful quest consisting of 5 stages (if the tasks are difficult) or, conversely, of 15 stages.

The quest can be made even more enjoyable and exciting if there are several gifts along the way (let the tasks be accompanied, for example, by chocolates or small souvenirs).

Puzzles

Where can I get riddles? The easiest option is to find riddles on the Internet, but you can also compose them yourself, since they do not have to correspond to poetic canons at all. And if they contain humor or something individual, personal (for example, associated with some kind of fun occasion), then this will certainly be very pleasant for the birthday man! To make it easier for you, we offer a selection of riddles to help you compose a quest indoors:

  • In a riddle, the key word may not be the word “picture” itself, but what is depicted on it. For example, in the picture there is a waterfall.

  • Compose a crossword puzzle (preferably on some interesting suitable topic), in which the highlighted letters are keywords the place where the gift is hidden.
  • The player finds the message and sees the following: the sheet shows cellular telephone, from it an arrow to your pasted photo, from the photo of an arrow with the inscription "Code word", then again an arrow and some phrase (it is desirable that it be very funny). This hint suggests calling you on the phone and telling you the password - in response, you also say a phrase (for example, a rhyme or a proverb) in which the next hint is encrypted.
  • Take a picture of the room where you are going to hide the gift, then print the photo in A4 format.

Beginning of the game

A message with a description of the game and the first riddle can be:

  • Send as SMS
  • Put in a visible place or attach to the wall

Every year we give children gifts with riddles - this is a whole quest, moving from one riddle to another, the child, in the end, finds a gift.

I came up with it myself when I was little Yaroslav. Then there were no names such as "quest". I just wanted to entertain the child, surprise him. She took riddles about everyday things from the reading anthology - a refrigerator, a wardrobe, shoes, a bathroom, laid out notes there, and handed the first one to him. There was delight - not to describe!

And now this happens every year. I've run out of ideas for riddles. And this time she asked Yaroslav to find for his brother interesting riddles and puzzles.

Yaroslav did his best and found such riddles that I did not even know. Sat on the Internet for an hour :)

I share with you the finished quest design:

1. We give the first note to the child. We had it in the "hands" of an inflatable Mickey Mouse

2. The unit shudders,
There is a thaw in it, then a cold,
He is very happy with his work
And if you turn it off, it will sit in a puddle. ( Fridge)

3. There is a note in the refrigerator about cupboard

He stands in the corner against the wall.
Oh he looks big
But he is not punished at all.
Mom keeps things in it.

There is another note in the closet. You just need to hide it somewhere in a conspicuous place, otherwise the closet is big, you can look for a note for a day

4. I am not a sea or a river,
I am not a lake, not a pond,
But how morning or evening -
People are running towards me. ( Bath)

Interestingly, I inserted a note into a vase with shells on the mirror, it was directly visible. But the children searched together and could not find! Apparently, the mirror has magical properties to make objects invisible.

5. And one more puzzle had to be solved to get to the treasured gift


Balcony

She tried to arrange the notes in such a way that Gleb had to run from one part of the apartment to the opposite: from the nursery to the kitchen, again to the nursery, to the bathroom, to the balcony.

And then Gleb asked me: “Mom, how do you manage to sneak in quietly and spread out all the notes that they didn’t even wake me up?”

The answer suggests itself: "If you become a dad, you can't even do that" :)

  • instead of a riddle - a set of letters from which you need to make a word
  • drawing with a clue inside the candy
  • a plate of cake with an attached sign "Eat me!", with a note under the treat
  • text file or picture (photo) with a hint on a flash drive

  • a hint in the camera - a pre-taken photo of the next item from your chain; the player needs to take the camera and view the photos
  • hint in the newspaper - the necessary word highlighted with a marker (circled by a pen) (or we select letters in different articles from which the player needs to make a word)
  • At one of the stages, the player finds objects or pictures that play an important role in some work (fairy tale) - the player must guess what this work is and find a book with it. The book contains the following clue.
  • In a riddle, the key word may not be the word “picture” itself, but what is depicted on it. For example, in the picture there is a waterfall. Then, having guessed the riddle, the birthday boy will think about what the word “waterfall” means: a faucet in the bathroom, a shower, or something else. Then guess about the picture.
  • Compose a crossword puzzle (preferably on some interesting suitable topic), in which the highlighted letters are the keywords of the place where the gift is hidden.
  • The player finds a message and sees the following: a cell phone is shown on the sheet, an arrow from it to your pasted photo, from the photo an arrow with the inscription "Code word", then again an arrow and some phrase (it is desirable that it be very funny). This hint suggests calling you on the phone and telling you the password - in response, you also say a phrase (for example, a rhyme or a proverb) in which the next hint is encrypted.
  • Take a picture of the room where you are going to hide the gift, then print the photo in A4 format. Next, put it in a transparent file and put a cross on this file in the place where the surprise will lie. Then cut the photo into several parts. These will be the "puzzles" that the birthday man needs to collect. At the end point of the chain, put a blank sheet of A4 format, a glue stick and a transparent file with a cross - the birthday boy will need to stick the "puzzles" on a piece of paper, put it in the file and see where the "treasure" lies.

The balcony has now become a familiar extension of the apartment. Everyone is so accustomed to its presence on the facade of buildings that it is probably impossible to imagine modern architecture without it. But the balcony is far from a modern design; it has its roots in the deep Middle Ages. As early as the 13th century, they began to be built, and they served for defensive purposes. These were monolithic stone structures protruding forward from the plane of the wall and having a blank stone fence. Massive brackets that were attached to the wall served as a hold for them. Balconies were used mainly for observation and defense, they were built above the main gates of the city, so you can call them an adornment of the main city entrance.

The functionality and convenience of balconies were quickly appreciated and therefore soon they began to appear on the facades of residential buildings and public buildings. All sides of the structure, as before, remained tightly closed, and heavy forms began to be replaced by lighter structures because, being on the facade of the building, they served as its decoration. With the advent of the Gothic era, a new type of balconies appeared, in the form of a cathedral pulpit. They had a semicircular configuration, and under the floor laid out masonry with an overlap. Such chairs decorated both the facades of houses and the interior decoration of the premises.

During the Renaissance, loggias began to be installed on a special ledge, which was made in the wall. There are metal fences and a clearer shape of its various parts. The Venetian era adds brackets in the form of animals and people to the construction of balconies, giving the impression that the structures do not hang in the air, but are supported from below by their figures. At this time, intricate figured metal fences appear, with a complex pattern of forged railings. Balconies become the decoration of buildings, so they are trying to make them unusually picturesque.

In Russia, these architectural elements appeared quite late, and they could only be found on the facades of royal palaces. In the Baroque era, the Catherine Palace was decorated with a large number of such structures, it was a special charm of those times, it emphasized the pomposity of the building. At the end of the 19th century, balconies began to be widely used in the construction of tenement houses. The use of concrete and metal makes it possible to build more balconies into the facades of city houses, this becomes not too expensive a pleasure and a privilege not only for kings.

Origin of the word "balcony"

The word "balcony" itself has ancient German roots, and in translation means "beam" or "log". The Italians began to use it, giving the word a national color, they changed the word "balco" to "balcony". This word refers to the protrusion of the beams built into the wall. In this form, the word went around the world and spread widely along with the construction of these structures.

Modern balconies

Nowadays, a balcony is not only an opportunity to enjoy the surrounding landscape and fresh air, but also the prospect of expanding living space. Therefore, glazed loggias have gained wide popularity, in which you can arrange a pantry, an additional room, and a greenhouse for flowers.

The protruding rooms of modern houses can be divided into four main types:

  • - a platform protruding from the wall, having fences and railings;
  • Veranda- differs from the usual balcony in large size, obligatory covering from above and support in the form of columns;
  • Loggia- a structure recessed into the facade of the building, having only one side;
  • - an opening in the wall, fenced from the side of the street, it does not have a platform for exit.

In different countries, a certain form of balcony usually prevails, it depends on the climatic conditions of the country. In countries with a sultry and hot climate, covered verandas and terraces are common, hiding from the scorching rays of the sun. Where the climate is more moderate, open structures and large verandas are used. In countries with cold and harsh weather, loggias are built in, and more often this architectural element is not used at all.

Riddles about the balcony

People have always loved to envelop objects around them with secrets and unusual properties. Of course, the loggias did not go unnoticed. Riddles about the balcony help to develop children's ingenuity and the ability to think logically; the ability to reproduce the image of an object in words develops the imagination. And such an element of the building is not so easy to guess, for this you have to think carefully. Let us give examples of several riddles, the clues for which will be the word "balcony".

I'm from home to the threshold
Only one step took a step,
The door closed behind
There is no path ahead of me.

I'm at home - and not at home,
Between heaven and earth,
Guess, friends
Where am I?

Not a house, but not a street,
High, but not scary.

Home is like a home
One hundred pockets in it.
In every pocket
Beds with flowers.

The riddle about the balcony can be invented by both adults and children. Let the kids think a little and describe this building element, for sure, from the prevailing descriptions, you can assemble a whole ballad. Such constructions have entered people's lives so tightly that even the classics could not do without them, it is worth remembering "Romeo and Juliet", the balcony can be called one of the acting characters of this world-famous work.

The history of appearance can be called remarkable and interesting. In the Middle Ages, there were no toilets in the houses, so people had to correct the need using special utensils, and its contents often simply poured out the windows of the houses, right on the pavement. Because of this, the smell of cities was simply unbearable, and it caused a lot of inconvenience to passers-by. In Paris, a decree was issued prohibiting the pouring of slop without shouting about it three times, and a fine was provided for failure to comply with this law.

Even in the Louvre, the palace of the French nobles and kings, in those days it was impossible to find a single toilet. Guests and courtiers had to either squat on the wide window sills or demand a special vase. The use of windows was extremely inconvenient, so they began to make special windows to the floor, and so that the nobles did not fall out of them, they made a special barrier. Modern French balconies, of course, are not used for their original purpose, they perform the function of decorating the facade and emphasize the unusualness of the interior, but the original name was assigned to them.

Living in modern homes and using various items in everyday life, usually no one thinks about their origin, and yet everything has its own deep history. Much remains unchanged from its original image, and some items have changed so much that it is hard to even imagine what they were at the very beginning of their journey.
