It is possible to identify its functions through the arrangement of cultural and recreational programs that will characterize the forms of carrying out activities in the recreational and developing activities, which includes a whole complex of carefully selected culturally synthesized active energy that fills the entire leisure space.
Cultural and recreational programs and their features
Features of cultural leisure and its programsdetermine the differences between the cultural leisure and supplementary education programs. The difference is that the cultural and recreational program is not organized specifically and is not studied - its implementation is spontaneous, as the preparation and conduct of mass leisure activities. Knowledge and skills arise as a result of the process of independent work outside of classes. Forms of events can be very diverse.
The subjects of leisure activities may be peopleof all age categories, both as organizers of a mass event, and children together with teachers and / or parents. In the course of implementing the cultural leisure program, a large number of all kinds of new roles (or positions) are provided-educational or improvising. There are organizers, performers, authors, spectators, artists, costumers, even designers, music designers, lighting and other stage workers, moderators, jury members and so on. The quantitative and qualitative content of roles will depend on the form of the events.
Types of cultural leisure programs
The basis of the proposed classification is the degree of mass character of the event and its length in time.
1. One-time program in the form of a game.The forms of carrying out of the events do not depend on the preparation of the participants, which are included in the game during the course of action. Games can be both intellectual and mobile; both at the table, and in the library, in the hall or in the open air. Depending on the age of the participants, the length of this lesson is adjusted. The description of the game is most often served by a scenario plan. Literary scenario confirms the qualifications, pedagogical culture, mastery of the organizers.
2.A competitive game program (a given topic) requires preliminary preparation of participants. Forms of events can be a KVN, a tournament, all sorts of intellectual games. For children, such programs have educational and educational goals and consist of training that implies joint creativity. For adults, the meaning of this form of holding mass events is the acquisition of team play skills.
KVN form

New forms of holding events make it possible to organize a well-planned and expected holiday by the public.
Among the features of preparing such a plan for competitive-game programs and their conduct, the main aspects are:
- It is very important not to turn this fun game into a boring examination, when there is no room for fiction, fantasy and improvisation.
- On the other hand, independence must be subtle, but unswervingly accompanied by leading leaders, in order to avoid bad taste and all manner of vulgarity.
- In the event that KVN is held among schoolchildren, it is important to instill a taste for subtle humor, intelligent joke, teach to find funny in itself, and in the surrounding life.
IQ Games
The forms and methods of the event alloworganization of mass intellectual games as a kind of competitive-game program. Here success comes at the expense of erudition, intellect, and intellectual abilities of a person - wit, wit, ability to foresee the situation.
Real practice prefers intelligentgames of combined forms. Good, for example, story quizzes, in which there is an economic strategy. The forms of leisure activities here are not too diverse: most often these are questions offered to participants. Therefore, the most important for the organizers is the selection of topics and the formulation of questions.
Playing the theater
The play-play assumes the presence of the leaders of thisgame program. They are most often the organizers of the holiday, if it is for adults, and teachers, if a holiday for children. The forms of cultural and recreational activities envisage in this type of game the obligatory nature of the plot, built in such a way that absolutely strangers can without preparation prepare tasks or play small roles. The fate of the heroes of this semi-improvisational play will depend entirely on the direct participants of the theatrical action.
The plot game
This is also a theatrical event.What are the forms of holding such a plan? Very diverse. The main thing here is the creation of a certain atmosphere and the development of a clear design of the game situation. The preparation period can be long. A very interesting move is the preparation of an initiative group, which in the process of a theatrical story game will gradually attract outsiders to action.
Very important is the advance information onsubjects. For example, in a few weeks, a costume ball called "The Nineteenth Century: Pushkin and his Muses" is announced. Those wishing to participate will try to get or build costumes and feel the atmosphere of a social event. Further, all the trump cards will be in the hands of the organizers. To hold such a holiday, you will need a detailed plan of carrying out with clearly stated tasks, preparation of the exposition (scenery and so on).
