Use these printable game cards to play Christmas Pictionary, or charades. Perfect for family game night, or Christmas parties!
We love playing games as a family. Our favorite thing to do on Sunday afternoons is pop a batch of popcorn and spend a couple hours playing games. Whenever we have family get-togethers, if there’s any down time- out come the games. Sometimes things get a little (or a lot) crazy, but man are those some good memories!
Over Christmas break, my kids have lots of free time, and I don’t want them spending it in front of a screen, so we end up playing a lot of games during those two weeks. So much fun! I came up with a new game for us to play this year– Christmas Songs Pictionary.
We did a little trial run last night, and my kids loved it! Even the four year old was able to participate. She couldn’t guess many of the songs, but she sure had fun when it was her turn to draw. I got a snapshot of her drawing the song “Oh Christmas Tree”. And yes, she is sporting just one pony tail. Some days she is her own hairstylist. Ha.
We have a large dry erase board that works great for any type of drawing game. My kids think it is so much more fun to draw on a dry erase board than on pieces of paper. It’s also much easier to see what people are drawing. If your family loves games, I recommend getting one!
We used the cards to play Pictionary, but you could also do Charades. Or you could print off two copies and play a matching game. (I recommend this white cardstock, I use it for all my printables.)
Here are a few more fun Christmas Games:

Thanks. The Christmas songs Pictionary is such a cool idea. I’m also thinking to use it for music theory and have students try to write the melody on staff paper with only the root note of “do” given to them. FUN!
