A little more about the activity
Try carrying a Christmas tree home or squeezing down a chimney like Santa. Each illustrated card gives you a Christmas action or scene to act out, from decorating cookies to getting tangled in tinsel. Familiar traditions share the deck with little holiday mishaps.
Play in teams and take turns acting while your teammates guess, or choose Everyone Guesses for individual scores. Classic Charades gives you one card per turn; 60-Second Showdown challenges your team to guess as many cards as possible in a minute. Keep your card hidden and use movements and gestures to bring the scene to life.
Bring out the cards after the Christmas gift exchange or make them part of a December evening after decorating the tree. Save the set for another gathering and choose a different game mode next time.
For families and friends who enjoy a little silliness together at Christmas.

Before you begin
You’ll need a printer or printing service, paper, scissors, a pen or pencil, and a 60-second timer. A phone timer works well. Cardstock is optional if you’d like sturdier cards.
Print & enjoy
Purchase through Etsy and download your PDFs. Print the card fronts and score sheet at 100% / Actual Size, then cut out the cards. The coordinating backs are optional if you’d like double-sided cards. Choose your game, follow its dealing instructions, and shuffle the cards before handing them out.
