These flashcards introduce some nouns that are featured in other printable teaching materials I created for my Christmas season English classes. My Christmas kit includes a range of activities that an ESL teacher can engage students with to help them learn more about one of the biggest holidays in the English-speaking world. Flashcards can be a fun way to make the first steps in introducing the vocabulary that can further be consolidated with the help of my printable Christmas worksheets (crosswords, word search puzzles, picture to word matching) and games (dominoes and bingo).

ESL Christmas Bingo Game

I have designed printable 5-by-5 grid cards for the Christmas bingo game that ESL teachers can use to help students consolidate the vocabulary introduced with my Christmas flashcards. This is my second favorite game after dominoes that I often play with kids I teach English to. Bingo is definitely the number one game by how much fun and excitement it can bring to the classroom.

The Christmas bingo rules are similar to those of traditional bingo. But instead of numbers there are pictures corresponding to words that kids have already learned with the help of my Christmas flashcards, crossword and word search puzzles, word and picture matching worksheets and dominoes game. Just as traditional cards my Christmas bingo card has a free space in the center. The teacher acts as an announcer calling out random words from small word cards that published bellow in this post. Those cards contain 46 English nouns from the Christmas vocabulary. There are a few additional words for synonyms (e.g., Christmas ball - Christmas bauble, gift - present, decoration - ornaments) and British variations of the word “sweater” (pullover, jumper). The goal is to fill a horizontal, vertical or diagonal pattern of five grid spaces on the card. Kids can either use a marker or chips (also published below) to mark the spaces that match the word called out by the teacher. Players can agree to continue playing until someone covers all the pictures on a card (full house).

Printable Christmas Dominoes. Part 1.

In this post I’d like to share my printable Christmas dominoes. Playing games is one of the most effective methods of teaching English to kids. I love playing games with my young students. They helps me engage even shy and weak student into the language learning process. Games create a relaxing and fun atmosphere during the class. Moreover games are a natural way of cognition for little kids. That’s why they seem to better memorize words whenever we play my printable vocabulary games during our English classes.

One of my favorite games is dominoes. It’s a game with rather simple rules which develops such skills as recognizing the relevant vocabulary by meaning and spelling of words. I try to design dominoes for each major topic I teach to kids during the year.

No doubt, Christmas is one of the biggest holidays in the world, so ESL teachers should dedicate some lessons to Christmas traditions and the winter season. Therefore dominoes make a part of my Christmas kit that I use to introduce the holiday vocabulary to kids. The Christmas dominoes feature the same pictures I used to design my Christmas flashcards. So dominoes can be used along with flashcards as another visual stimulus conducive to memorizing Christmas-related words.

ESL teachers are welcome to make use of my Christmas dominoes too. Please, share your experience in the comment section below.

Christmas Fun Song for Kids (+ Flashcards)

Hurray! Christmas season has come! It is the most loved and exciting time of the year that requires an intensive preparation. All children must know what is needed to feel a special and unique atmosphere of Christmas. But if you are still not sure what one needs for a fun holiday, my Christmas Fun Song for kids will certainly help you out. Just listen carefully!


Here are the Christmas Fun Song lyrics


What Do You Need for Christmas Fun?

What do you need for Christmas fun,
Christmas fun, Christmas fun?
What do you need for Christmas fun
On this frosty Christmas day?

A pail of sand?
An Easter egg?
A motor boat
Or an ice-cream cone?

No! No! No! No! No!

A holly wreath,
A jolly reindeer,
Christmas cookies
A row of stockings,
Christmas tree,
Lots of gifts,
Outside we are caroling.

What do you need for Christmas fun,
Christmas fun, Christmas fun?
What do you need for Christmas fun
On this frosty Christmas day?

A watermelon?
A big umbrella?
A birthday cake?
A farmer rake?

No! No! No! No! No!

Santa’s sleigh,
Some merry elves,
Snowflakes,
Silver bells,
Snowman,
Candy canes,
Many friends to sing and play.
