Kids Christmas Charades
Charades are such a hit with my family. We love gathering around and having fun together, and charades is a great way to get everyone laughing and talking with each other. We love a seasonal charades game as well like our Halloween Charades and Thanksgiving Charades.
We love charades for so many reasons in our house, but I especially love having all my kids gathered around, laughing and talking with each other. With all the activities and never ending to-do lists during the holiday season, having time to slow down and connect is so important. Games, like charades, are a great way to do that.
Why I Love Charades Games
I love charades for so many reasons.
First of all, it’s fun! My kids love playing charades together and I love the time that we spend together laughing.
Charades are also awesome for teaching teamwork and healthy competition. Whether they win or lose, everyone has fun together, and teams work on communication skills and working together.
Another great reason why we love Christmas Charades is that it is fun reading practice for all those fun Christmas words! If you have a learning reader, charades are an awesome way to get them practicing without being boring or annoying.

How To Play Charades
Charades is so easy to play. Simply grab your Kids Christmas charades cards, and place them in a bowl.
Divide the group into teams. Once the teams are divided choose one person from the first team to choose and idea out of the bowl.The timer will start and they will begin to act it out. Their team works to guess the Christmas charades idea within the one minute time frame. If the team guesses the answer they get a point. If the team does not guess it the other team gets one guess to try and get it correct. Whichever team has the most points at the end of the game wins!
It’s as simple as that!
