Christmas Resources


Christmas Games:

These following bunch of sites are all from TESiboard and they are FABULOUS!


Christmas Bell Ringing (sequencing)


Elf Finger Game (angles)




Rudolph Rescue (subtraction)








Factory Balls- Christmas Edition is a fun where you try to
 create the patterns and colors of the ball on the tree!

The Christmas Tree Puzzle is a fabulous online site for problem solving 
and critical thinking. The goal is to light up the Christmas tree by connecting
 all the wires to the light source.  It's lots of fun but it is definitely a challenge
 that requires lots of problem solving.

The Christmas Tree Maze is another fun tree puzzle. To complete this task, you must drag the bar of lights at the bottom of the tree along the maze of white wires until one of the end bulbs lights up the star at the top. Any move is legal, as long as all three bulbs stay in contact with the white wires at all times.

Santa's Sleigh is a fun and challenging game. The object is to put sleighs so that each Santa has one sleigh & each sleigh only belongs to one Santa. It's fun & much harder than it sounds! 


Christmas Memory is a game is a basic concentration game with a twist.
 If you aren't fast enough, the rows move and you are timed. 
It has levels that range from EASY to VERY HARD.

On the site Santa Claus's Trip, students view a map of the world, are shown the route that Santa will take to deliver toys, and then they have to touch the countries to recreate his route. When the correct country is touched students even magically travel to that country to see the gifts delivered. What a great way to review the world map and have fun all at the same time!

Holiday Practice is a fun game of multiplication practice.  For each multiplication question you answer correctly, your gingerbread house gets a new decoration.  There are three levels of multiplication to practice: 0-3, 0-6, or 0-9.  At the end of the game, if you've done well, you get to decorate your very own gingerbread house.  What a fun way to practice multiplication facts during the holiday season!

Christmas Lights: Math Fact Fun is a a fun fact game that allows students to put up Christmas lights after practicing math facts (addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division facts) for one minute. Students will want to work quickly because the more math problems you solve correctly, the more lights you will be given to decorate your house!

Christmas Lights: This game is the same as the Christmas Lights: Math Fun Facts game but without the math facts. A great and fun game for younger students who need to practice their mouse skills!  The lights in both games are animated and look beautiful with the overhead lights turned off.  Both of these games would be wonderful to use as a whole class on your Smart Board or individually with students at their own computers.



Virtual Tree Decorating: 
This Tree Decorating page from SantaClaus.net has lots of options and 
even garland that you can move around and stretch! 

This site  from Muse Arts is beautiful and you can even turn
 the lights off so it glows! 

This one is fun because it gives you many choices, allows you to 
stretch and rotate items, as well as the ability to print your finished tree! 

The National  Christmas Tree allows students to decorate a real looking 
tree with garland, ornaments, lights and toppers. 




Christmas Calendar Countdown:
This Around the World calendar features a question about how 
Christmas is celebrated in different countries each day. 

This fabulous one is based on the book "The Polar Express"

This calendar is purely for fun. Each day a new 
animation is added to the Christmas tree as you click on the number. 

This calendar has an activity for each day until Christmas. 

Christmas History:
The History Channel has a fabulous website full of information on Christmas.
