Free Printable Christmas Games for Church or Home
These fun printable games are perfect for the Christmas season. If you’re organizing a holiday get together and would like to have a variety of activities on hand, these games can offer the options you need.
Some are traditional party games with a Christmas twist, and others are games you may have never played before. Have fun planning your holiday party with these free printables!
Printable Christmas ABC Game
This game has a simple premise but can be as easy or as difficult as the partygoers make it. Simply list out a Christmas or holiday word that starts with each letter of the alphabet.
No answer key included, although you might want to note these answers. For Q, the holiday dishes of “quince pie” and “quail”; for X, you might need to accept “Xmas”, “xylophone”, or “X-ray”, and for Z, the adjective “zazzy”, or the “zucchini bread in a Ziploc” one might get for Christmas.
Jacob’s Christmas has lists of holiday words by letter if you need more help in finding Christmas related words.
If playing with younger kids, you might want to make your own answer key and give them Q, X, and Z as free answers.
For adults, if there is a tie, you could determine the winner by the person who has the most correct answers that were not given by anyone else.
If you have large groups at your holiday parties, you could turn this into a team activity to cut down on the number of people competing.

Printable Christmas Categories Game
This is a fun game where you are given a Christmas themed category and asked to name something in each category that you think no one else will answer, but still is a “correct” answer.
You may want to have one judge or panel of judges to determine what is a “correct” answer.
Printable What’s that Christmas Song? Game
Similar to the TV show “Name that Tune,” this fun printable Christmas game has you playing a little bit of a song, maybe from a Spotify or Amazon Music Unlimited Christmas songs playlist, then having the participants write down their guess on the sheet of paper.
In general, you will want to decide who won each round as you go, and not answer all of them at the end. The one who has won the most rounds wins.
If you have a lot of people playing, you could form teams and maybe even get these buzzers to make it clearer who the first person is that gets to answer.
Printable Christmas What’s in the Bag? Game
People play the “What’s in the Bag” in a variety of ways. For this one, you could put a variety of Christmas items that aren’t fragile or sharp in a bag you can’t see through, and pass it around.
Then the participants would take turns holding the bag, perhaps for a short duration that is timed, then they would write down what’s in the bag.
The person with the most correct answers wins! This can be made easy or hard by the items you put in the bag, so it can be some holiday fun for younger children, teens, or adults, too! It’s a great choice for a family game night.
Printable Christmas Guess the Price
This printable game will probably take the most preparation time of all of these games, but it seems to be an uncommon Christmas game that some adults would enjoy.
Similar to the Price is Right game show, you try to guess the right price of an item. You can decide if you want to include the “without going over the price” part of the guessing game.
Here are the 10 items chosen for this game. They were chosen with the hope that they will not be quickly discontinued or priced unusually. We’ll try to keep them updated in the future. But if an item is not available, simply choose another similar item.
Be sure to bookmark this post so you can get to it quickly.
- Santa’s Costume (adult)
- Christmas Tree 6 foot
- Christmas Tree Star
- Scented Candle (3 set)
- String Lights (100 lights)
- Christmas Disco Ball Ornament
- Christmas Wreath
- Christmas Stockings (4 pieces)
- Ugly Christmas Sweater
- Gingerbread House kit
This game is probably best played if you list out the product description name instead of just the generic name. For example, instead of saying “Santa’s Costume (adult)” you would say, “Potalay Men’s Deluxe Santa Suit 11pc. Christmas Adult Santa Claus Costume.”
You might even have the description available in case you want to give more detail or answer questions about the item.
The person with the most correct answers wins. If you think you will have a tie, choose another Christmas item as a tiebreaker.

Tips for a Great Christmas Party Game Time
- If you’re planning on a white elephant game for a large group or the entire family, please explain before the party how your group plays it. Some people have never played it before, or have played it in an entirely different fashion (new vs. used, nice vs. joking, stealing vs. no stealing). Make the details clear in the invitation.
- Prizes aren’t required but can be a great way to add some fun to Christmas parties. Ideas for a small prize include candy canes or other Christmas treat, gift cards, Christmas movies, or a Christmas ornament.
- Be flexible. If you have 3 printable holiday games planned but people are tired after 2 games, it’s fine to cut game time short.
