Holiday Classroom Reward Kit: Behavior Incentives, Bingo & Games for Grades 2–5

A festive whole-class behavior management system for the holiday season!

Let’s talk about December for a second.

Your students are excited. They’re distracted. They’re counting down the days until winter break. Keeping them focused feels like herding cats wearing jingle bells.

Enter: Holiday Classroom Management Games! 🎁

This is a whole-class reward system that makes positive behavior fun and motivating during the most chaotic time of year.

What’s included:

🧩 Holiday Puzzles – Christmas trees, gingerbread houses, snowmen, and more! Students earn puzzle pieces as a class and work together to complete the picture.

⛄ Build-a-Character Boards – Add pieces to build a snowman, reindeer, or other holiday character

🎲 Holiday Bingo Boards – Cover spaces as your class earns rewards (aim for one line or full blackout!)

🎯 Holiday Board Games – Move a gingerbread figure along a festive path toward the finish line

How it works:

1. Choose your game – Pick a puzzle, bingo board, character builder, or board game to display
2. Set a class goal – Decide what reward your class is working toward (extra recess, hot cocoa party, movie day, etc.)
3. Earn pieces – Add one piece/space/move each time the class meets a behavior, academic, or participation goal
4. Celebrate together – When complete, enjoy your class reward and start a new one!

Bonus: The download includes a full page of class reward ideas (free, low-cost, and holiday-themed) so you don’t have to brainstorm on your own!
