Santa's Reindeer!

Help Santa hitch up his team of reindeer!

Good ole' Santa has been busy building toys

and wrapping presents....

No time to hitch up his team of reindeer.

He needs your help to get the reindeer ready to go!

To play this game you will need:

A Wooden Ruler

(I got mine at the Dollar Store - 2 for $1.00!)

2 Dice

18 Clothes Pins

Spray Paint

(White, Black, Green, or Red)

Hot Glue Gun or Double Sided Tape

Mod Podge

Sponge Brush

and

The Printed PDF: Cut and Laminated

Here's the HOW TO:

Cut out the reindeer.

I left a little bit of a white edge around the whole reindeer.

Laminate the reindeer.

Attach the reindeer to the clothespins using hot glue

or double sided tape.

Spray paint the ruler and attach the ruler border

with Mod Podge and a sponge brush.

That's It! 

You're Ready to PLAY!

To Play the GAME . . .

Roll the dice.

If you get a 5, you get to clip your #5 reindeer to Santa's Sleigh...

or the painted ruler!

Take turns between players.

Each turn gets 1 roll.

The first one to get all of Santa's Reindeer

 hooked up to the sleigh. . .

WINS!

Here's the PDF:

Don't Eat.....!

You can fill in the blank on this game!

Don't Eat...

You choose a different one of Santa's reindeer

EVERYTIME!

To Play the Game You Will Need:

Candy
and
The "Don't Eat....!" Cards - Laminated

You Can Use:

M&M's

Skittles
Gum Drops

Whoppers

or

Chocolate Covered Raisins

(Reindeer Droppings)

Or any other pieced candy you can think of!

This is a great game for classroom parties.

To Play The Game:

Divide the class into groups or stay together as one group if

you are playing as a family.

Put a piece of candy on each of the squares on the card.

Have one peson leave the room.

The rest of the group will choose one of

Santa's Reindeer.

Once you've made your choice,

the person can come back into to the room.

He or she can eat the candy from the card until they get to the

Reindeer that was chosen!
As soon as they go to pick up that piece of candy

every will yell, "DON'T EAT _______!"

and their turn is over.

Let everyone in the group take a turn.

Each time they leave the room the rest of the group

will choose a different Reindeer!

Silent Night Bingo!

. . . BiNgO . . .

Is One Of Our FaVoRiTe Holiday Traditions!

We seriously love it!

Truth be told, it's probably the Dollar Store prizes that keep us

coming back for more!

For Christmas I created two different

versions of the game.

The Silent Night Bingo is perfect for

Family Home Evening and Family Parties.

The Jingo Bingo is perfect for School Parties.

Don't forget to yell, JINGO instead of Bingo

when you win or it doesn't count!

You will also be seeing a preschool version

of each!

Follow the...STAR

Follow the Star PDF

and

HO...HO...HO!

(This one is more like Tic Tac Toe, but the little one's won't know!)
It's perfect for short attention spans!

Ho Ho Ho PDF

You have to say, "HO...HO...HO"...when you
get 3 in a row!
You have to yell the title of each game for it to count!
I'm working on the PDF files as we speak!

It'll be just a minute.

Christmas Memory Game!

The Silent Night Memory Game

is a great way to talk to your "littles" about

the TRUE MEANING of Christmas.

I was able to use mine for a Primary Sharing Time.

When they got the match...

I had the child read the Story Card
that goes with that picture.

Here's what they look like:

Each of the Memory Game Cards

will have a front and a back.

The back side of all of the cards will have

this picture:

The other side will have two of each of the other pictures

shown below.

This is what the Story Cards look like:

I keep these and when a match is made,

I hand it to the one who got the match to read.

Instructions:

Cards can be printed with a front and back side

and laminated,

or they can be printed and attached to

chipboard using Mod Podge and
a sponge brush to attach them.

You can use a wet erase marker to write

numbers on the stars of the back pieces
when the game is played in Primary.
When you're done...just wipe them off
and start with a fresh set of numbers
every time you play.

Have A GREAT Day!

It's the MOST GRATEFUL TIME OF THE YEAR!

I love NOVEMBER!

Not only is it my birthday month,
(Woot...Woot!)

but it's the one time of the year we get to just...

BE THANKFUL!

Here's a fun way to display what you are thankful for as a family.

It's a Gratitude Banner!

Here's what you'll need to do:

Print...Laminate...Cut...

and Attach the banner pieces to a ribbon!

You can use hot glue, or colored staples to attach the

banner pieces to the ribbon.

Leave extra ribbon on each of the sides so you can

hang it up.

Each day have each of the members of your family write what

they are grateful for on one of the fall leaves which are

included in the Give Thanks Banner Packet!

The leaves can be clipped to the banner

using glitter covered clothes pins.
I used the medium sized clothes pins, but
the larger ones look cute too!

By the time Thanksgiving

comes around,

your banner

will be filled with blessings!

Here's the PDF:

Give Thanks Banner Packet PDF

To make clothespins you will need:

Glitter

Aqua Net Hair Spray

Modpodge

and

A Sponge Brush

Instuctions:

Sprinkle glitter while it's wet.

Allow to dry.

Spray with Aqua Net to keep glitter in place!
