Christmas BINGO Gift Exchange Game

During the holidays, my husband’s side of the family has a tradition of playing a game called Spoons, a fast paced game of grabbing spoons. This game gets a bit rough since there is always one less spoon to people and the person without a spoon loses. Now, this game can get a bit rough. In fact, blood has been drawn through accidental nail scratching while trying to grab a spoon. So usually, this game is only played by older teens and adults, while the younger kids do a craft activity. While Spoons is a fun game, this Christmas Bingo Gift Exchange Game is a safer alternative that everyone can play without fear of bodily harm 🙂

What pin inspired this game? My own! I’ve been slowly creating free Bingo printables for each holiday and based this printable on a past design of my New Year’s Bingo Printable from 2018, which I’ve updated for 2019! So if you need a Bingo game for 2019, grab this free printable too!

Supplies:

This game will require a printer, scissors or paper cutter, printer cardstock paper, and mini marshmallows (substitute with Bingo markers, glass flat back marbles, pennies, or any other space marker).

How to play:

• Each person playing will have to bring a wrapped gift. All gifts should be placed together in one area. You can set the spending limit per gift or just let everyone bring what they want. Examples of gifts: coffee cards, boxes of candy, toilet paper, paper towels, mugs, blanket, house slippers/socks, Amazon or store gift cards, hot cocoa gift set, etc…
• Print out the Bingo cards and call numbers. Cut the Bingo cards in half and cut out all the call numbers. Get the FREE Christmas BINGO Gift Exchange Game Printable >>>> HERE. *These printables are for personal use only. Please do not  sell these.*
• One person will be picking and calling out one number at a time – i.e. “B1”. When a person has the matching number, they should mark it off with their mini marshmallows. When someone gets a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal line, they should call out ‘Bingo’ to win – click HERE for other ways to play Bingo. Once the numbers are verified, that person can pick a prize and is done playing. The remaining players keep playing until everyone wins a prize!
