Christmas activities in English for children

By Great Little People
February 6, 2024

Like every year these dates come and we start thinking about Christmas. The streets are already decorated, the stores sell their best products and there are families who have even put lights on the windows. This Christmas will be somewhat atypical. That's why we want to leave you some Christmas activities in English for children together with original crafts so that you can do it with the little ones in the house. It is important that they do not stop having contact with the language on these holidays. It is an excellent opportunity to learn new vocabulary and practice concepts that we will see in our classes in these last weeks of the year.

Painting, crafts and other Christmas activities in English for children

A few years ago, all families sent Christmas greetings via postcard. In this time, that tradition has been lost, because now we have mobile phones, computers, internet... Luckily, kids still love to draw, paint and do activities in English for children! Especially when it comes to finger paints, glitter and glue or stickers, so let your imagination run wild as much as you want! We enclose a greeting from Great Little People. You can send it with your Christmas gifts, decorate your homes or carry out Christmas activities in English. Our friends Sydney, London and LA are dressed for this special occasion.

Christmas decoration: the pretext for any activity with children

We have to keep in mind that the most effective thing is to use the language in those everyday situations that we carry out every day. We suggest activities to do with them with it vocabulary in English that we used in our sessions this month. For example: put The Christmas tree, the balls and the ornaments. (To Put up the Christmas Tree and Decorations) Cook bell-shaped gingerbread cookies. (Jingle Bell) or in the form of snowflakes. (Snowflake). If one day we are lucky enough to see snow around this time, we can even go out to the park to create balls and snowmen. (Snowballs and snowmans).

Plus our best plan. That no child can resist. Writing the letter to Santa Claus (To write Santa's Letter) to bring us lots of presents and candies. (Presents and Candies) We want to leave you our own template for Santa Claus's letter. You can complete it by cutting out the toys from the catalogs, if they are very small, or writing the names of your requests. It's a fun time when you can discover if your daughters and sons have been good. (Good) or not. (Naughty) And to know what things make them most excited to receive on that magical day for them.

Games, carols, movies, readings and activities in English

Finally, as on many other occasions, there are always options to games in English for children Songs and carols! Movies or books in English for children that you will easily find in various resources.

At Great Little People, we really like a story called”Busy Christmas” and through which we can create games in English for children such as bingo, riddles of words with mimics that appear, imitate characters or even invent different and new endings for the narrative. In addition, we have a Online storytelling on YouTube where we also have many more songs.
