5 Christmas Games for Kids!

Christmas is a great time for fun and games – especially if we can use the fun to point kids to Jesus! The fun and simple game ideas in this activity guide can be used to review and reinforce what the children learn as you marvel at the Biblical events surrounding Christ’s birth. Suggested Scriptures and discussion questions are provided for you to use with the children as you prepare to play each game.

You could play one game with your family every week as you celebrate the Advent season or plan a Christmas party and play all 5 games in a row. You can also use these game ideas in your Children’s Ministry to review and reinforce lessons about the nativity or as an Advent activity to send home with families.

These games are adapted from the FREE Cardboard Christmas Kit. This craft kit includes five lessons with printable nativity characters that each focus on a particular event related to the birth of Christ. You can use these games on their own or download the full Carboard Christmas Kit for more meaningful Christmas ideas and resources.
