1) Christmas Bingo

Christmas bingo is a fun printable Christmas game for adults and kids, too. The game can be played with bingo daubers or counting chips, but to make it more fun and festive use peppermint starlights or Hershey kissers as markers.

Here are the easy steps to play holiday bingo:

Prep work

• Cut out the calling cards and put them in a container.
• Hand each player one of the 4 different bingo boards and markers.
• Choose someone to be the caller.

How to play Christmas bingo

• The caller pulls random cards from the container and announces what it says.
• Each player marks the words called.
• The first player, who covers five squares in a row–up and down, sideways or diagonally, is the winner.

2) Holiday Alphabet

This holiday alphabet game is easy to play and fun for all ages. I play this game usually with my niece and let her suggest words. The rules are super simple:

• Name one Christmas related item, food or activity that starts with each letter of the alphabet.
• The first person to finish their A to Z wins the game.

3) Christmas Scattergories

This free printable Christmas scattergories game is my family’s favourite – probably because I’m slow and always finish last lol. Anyway, printable holiday scattergories are fun to play at parties and with older kids. The rules for how to play Christmas scattergories are pretty straightforward:

• Set a 1- to 2-minute timer.
• To play the game, write down a word for each category that begins with the letter on top.
• Once the timer runs out, tally up the scores.
• Points are given for each unique answer.
• Then play the next round.
• The person with the most points wins.
• Oh, and feel free to pick letters other than SANTA, too.

4) Holiday Movie Match Game

The holiday movie match game is always a hit at the Christmas party in my office. You can play this Christmas game individually or in teams. Movie buffs and trivia enthusiasts will love it!

The instructions for how to play this printable holiday game are really simple:

• Simply note the letter (e.g. “A.” for Keira Knightley) next to the movie the actor played in (e.g. #1 “Christmas Vacation”).
• Set a timer to 5 minutes.
• The first person or team who matches the most actors and movies correctly wins.

5) Word Scramble

Looks like Santa’s elves mixed up the Christmas words! Let’s unscramble them. You can play the Christmas world scramble game alone or with a group. If you feel up to a challenge, set a timer and race to find out who solves the word scramble first.

6) Yuletide Word Search

This Christmas word search is a fun way to pass the time, play with kids or keep your guests entertained. I hid 26 holiday words in the word search game, but you may find even more. And be sure to look for holiday terms going up-to-down, left-to-right, and diagonally.

Printable holiday games tips

Printable Christmas games are easy to set up and a very cost-effective way to entertain as you don’t have to purchase expensive materials and supplies to play. Here are a few tips to help you prepare for a party or gathering:

• You can print on any type of paper, regular printer paper works just as well as cardstock.
• Make sure to have enough copies for each of your guests or students. If prepping for an office holiday party, print a few extra copies.
• Also, print out the answer keys where included.
• Make sure to have plenty of pencils and/or markers handy.
