I’m all about spreading some Christmas cheer and why not start in your own neighborhood? If you’re looking to get into the holiday spirit, this FREE Printable You’ve Been Jingled game is the perfect way to start. It’s a PDF download that comes with everything you need. Add some Christmas treats and the game just gets sweeter!
Imagine hearing a knock on your front door or hear the doorbell ring while you’re doing something. You stop to answer the front door and you find a nice sweet holiday surprise. That’s something even a Grinch will enjoy! But that’s not the end… you can spread the Christmas cheer by passing it along to somebody else.
You’ll love receiving the gift, but passing the gift along to someone else is just as much fun. Make your own holiday treats or buy a few pieces of candy from the store to keep things simple. This game is all about passing around the the holiday spirit.
Then, your family can pass along the treats and printable PDF on someone else’s door step. They’ll open the door and have the same joyful surprise reaction you did! Then, of course, they pass along the cheer too. It keeps going throughout the holiday season.

How To Play You’ve Been Jingled Game
Anything can be included in a Jingle treat bag! This is the perfect opportunity to get creative. I love to include some homemade baked goods, but little crafts or candies work well too. Start with a little plate or basket to put your treats in and print out the game.
You’ll put the note and door hanger in the basket together. This tells the neighbor that they’ve been jingled and how to play, to pass along the joy to another neighbor. The idea is to keep the chain going until Christmas Day.
But do remember that there’s no pressure for them to do the same, especially if they’re not capable of doing this act due to budget constraints. No need to worry, the act of giving a little gift is just as much fun!
