All sorts of tricky questions and puzzles are especially popular. They are suitable for both corporate events and ordinary fun company. Jokes for good health! All our jokes are given out for free!

Question:“Have you ever wondered why a snowman, like a real man, has a bucket on his head and not a hat?”

The answers might be: one can assume that such a headdress is very practical - it does not get wet, does not fly off in the wind, and suits a snowman. Or maybe like this family tradition, and the bucket is passed down from generation to generation. Of course, anything is possible!

But in reality it was like this...
One New Year's Eve, the wife asked her husband to take out the trash. Reluctantly, he looked up from the TV, which was showing an old funny comedy, got dressed and went out into the yard... Two weeks passed. On the night of the old New Year the doorbell rang. The wife opened it - an unshaven, lost husband stood on the threshold. He handed his wife an empty bucket. She appreciated the joke, took the bucket and with great pleasure put it on her beloved husband’s head... This is such an unusual story for the whole family.

Why does this happen? Another funny poem:

If at night your doors
The animals opened it without a key,
They began to eat salad with peas,
Brazenly demand potatoes
Slurp loudly and laugh,
Don't be reflected in mirrors,
And tap your hoof,
And you see a little double, Look at the calendar:
It's not winter yet!
Don't delay, come on
Call an ambulance!

New Year's riddles for children

Children believe in miracles! Not only children 3-4 years old and preschoolers, but also completely grown-up high school students. They believe in a fairytale grandfather who will certainly come and give a miracle. Just like that, he will simply open the bag and give away the most valuable thing he has free of charge (that is, for nothing)! Let children's naive faith in miracles remain longer! The New Year lives in our mysteries. Each of them is not only fun entertainment with friends, but also a good lesson.

In verse:

The dear ribbon lay spread out on the Christmas tree.
The lights flash in different colors.
They are connected by a miracle - wiring.
The light bulbs are powered by the electric current itself.
(Garland)

Around the Christmas tree on New Year's Day
There is a round dance at school.
What is it, where are your friends?
I don't see anyone.

It melts quickly on your warm palm
Lacy little piece of ice.

Each one is unique (snowflake.)

She is a beautiful queen.
Green and young
And on the top of my head it sparkles
Star of Bethlehem.
(Christmas tree)

Mice one after another
Behind the mice is a cat.
This is not hunting, this is

Some from a fairy tale, some from a miracle
Came to us out of nowhere?
With a beard so fluffy
And with a childishly pure soul?
Who brought gifts?
Let's shout loudly:
(Father Frost!)

And when the guests arrive
And they will pour champagne,
Pull her ponytail -
There will be fireworks!
(Clapperboard)

On some star

But there is always a miracle:
The clock strikes twelve...
And from nowhere
New Year is coming to us.
