Christmas Puzzles and Games

Every puzzle here is generated when you load it, so the grid, the card numbers and the question order are different each time. That matters if you run the same game two years running, or if you need twenty bingo cards that are genuinely not duplicates. Answer keys print on a separate sheet.

Nothing repeats

The generators place words, numbers and questions randomly each time you open or regenerate a puzzle. A class can be given thirty different word searches with the same word list, and a party can have twenty bingo cards that share a theme without sharing a layout.

If you want the same puzzle twice, download the PDF the first time. Reloading the page produces a new one, which is the behaviour people want nine times out of ten but worth knowing about.

Answer keys and running a game

Every puzzle that needs an answer key has one, printed as its own page so you can keep it out of sight. Quizzes print in two forms, a question sheet for players and a marked copy for whoever is reading out.

For a group, print the players sheets in greyscale draft to save ink, and print the one copy of the answer key at normal quality so nothing is ambiguous when someone disputes an answer.

Questions

Are the Christmas puzzles free to print?
Yes. Every puzzle and game is free, with no account and no watermark. Print as many copies as you need for a family, a class or a work party.
Do the puzzles change each time?
Yes. Grids, card numbers and question order are randomised when the page loads, so you can produce thirty different word searches or twenty unique bingo cards from the same settings.
Do I get the answers?
Yes. Answer keys and solved grids print on their own separate sheet so you can keep them hidden from players, and quizzes print both a question sheet and a marked copy.
Can I change the words or questions?
Yes. Word lists, bingo items and quiz questions are all editable in the panel before you print, so you can swap in names, in-jokes or classroom vocabulary.
