Often at Christmastime when my family gets together there are several dozen people to keep entertained. The variety of ages and general hustle and bussle makes it difficult to keep them all busy. Luckily, everbody likes playing Christmas bingo. This is also an excellent Christmas activity for teachers to play in the classroom — it scales well to a room full of children, can be dropped into almost any schedule, and is fun while building reading skills.
So here’s my Christmas present to you: free printable Christmas bingo cards.
Just print, cut, and you’re ready to play.
You can download the Bingo Card Creator software for free, and print out up to 8 cards with it.
Use the Wizards menu to quickly make Christmas bingo cards. You can find them under Holidays. There are over 400 activities already included to get you started, or you can make your own.
First, everyone marks off their Free Space.
When a player fills up a row, diagonal, or column, they should stand up and shout “Bingo!” If you have actually called the 5 words they marked, they win. You can give the winner a small treat if you feel like. You can continue playing for multiple winners.
I wrote a few versions to Christmas bingo which are sensitive to the needs of some audiences, particularly teachers and the like. The above cards are sort of my baseline American Christmas set.
I also have a more traditional Christmas bingo set (also 8 cards also with available call list, about the Christmas story such as you will hear about in church).
In addition, you can download a mostly secularized “holiday” bingo, also with available call list, for folks who are more comfortable with that.
