While usually skewed toward children, Christmas word finds and jumbles can be a fun activity for the whole family. Challenging Christmas games and puzzles can offer kids a fun way to pass the time while they wait for Santa Claus to arrive.

Christmas games can include much more than word finds: crossword puzzles are another great activity for at home and in-school classrooms, along with coloring pages and stencils.

Creating Christmas crafts can be an enjoyable way to spend time with your children during the holiday season. Kids can develop their creative and artistic abilities by making homemade Christmas cards, decorating Christmas stockings or making beautiful homemade Christmas tree ornaments.

Children may also enjoy baking and decorating Christmas cookies and cupcakes, or building festive gingerbread houses.
