ESL Christmas Vocabulary, Reading, Grammar and Games

How many words do you know about Christmas? 

It's important to know some Christmas  vocabulary if you want to understand  some of the symbols and traditions of Christmas. 

Understanding some of the most common vocabulary will also help you enjoy the Christmas carols you listen to and sing along to during the holidays.

Here are a few vocabulary flashcards, quizzes, games and activities to help you learn and remember some of the important Christmas words you should know. 

This first item is actually a reading, but it is an interesting one that I hope you will enjoy. 

  • Mistletoe, the kiss of Christmas"It's a vintage year for the legendary mistletoe berries..
    In Britain’s mistletoe-growing regions, a branch would be brought inside at Christmas to protect the house. Any woman walking underneath
    could not refuse to be kissed, or she would remain an old maid. After a kiss, she would pick a berry from the branch."
