Can you place each of the Christmas words into this free printable Christmas Fill-In Word Puzzle?

Christmas Fill-In Word Puzzle.

As a child, I always loved the logic of completing a fill-in puzzle. I think the reason I enjoy puzzles like this so much is because it relies on pure logical thinking and reasoning instead of having to solve cryptic crossword clues.

This puzzle is just one of many free printable fill-in puzzles (also known as criss cross puzzles) that I have created for my own classroom and am sharing with you!

Looking for more Christmas activities and puzzles for your classroom? Here’s just a few examples of the other holiday activities I have created.

Instructions

Place each of the Christmas-related words in the grid exactly one time each. One letter must be placed in each box.

Using This Puzzle in the Classroom

I have started using these fill-in puzzles as one of the options for my students who are early finishers to choose from.

I usually pair a printable puzzle like this with a pentomino puzzle and a number puzzle with movable pieces. If you are looking for more Christmas puzzles, I suggest checking out my Christmas Tree Addition Puzzles, Holiday Triples Puzzle, or Christmas Tree Edge Matching Puzzle.

I hang the puzzles each week on my dry erase board inside one of my Charles Leonard magnetic pockets.

Puzzle Solutions

Puzzle solutions are available on a password-protected solution page. I do not openly post the puzzle answer keys because one of my goals as a resource creator is to craft learning experiences for students that are non-google-able. I want teachers to be able to use these puzzles in their classrooms without the solutions being found easily on the Internet.

Please email me at sarah@mathequalslove.net for the password to the answer key database featuring all of my printable puzzles and math worksheets. I frequently have students emailing me for the answer key, so please specify in your email what school you teach at and what subjects you teach. If you do not provide these details, I will not be able to send you the password.

Not a teacher? Go ahead and send me an email as well. Just let me know what you are using the puzzles for. I am continually in awe of how many people are using these puzzles with scouting groups, with senior adults battling dementia, or as fun activities in their workplace. Just give me enough details so I know you are not a student looking for answers to the puzzle that was assigned as their homework!
