Christmas Ad Libs: 4 Free Printables for a Silly Good Time

Dear Santa

Dear Santa, My name is Sally. I have been a very [adjective] girl this year. I always listen to Mom and Dad and do my chores, like [verb ending in -ing] the dog, cleaning the [noun], and keeping an eye on my [adjective] brother.

But of course, you already know all that. It’s just like that [adjective] song goes: You see me when I’m [verb ending in -ing] and you know when I’m [adjective]!

Now let’s get down to business. I know most kids are asking for the new [noun] videogame or their own electronic [noun], but personally, I like [adjective] toys. I want a doll that [verb ending in -s] and a book about [plural noun]. But what I’d really like is a battery powered [noun] that [verb ending in -s] when you [verb]. Can your [adjective] helpers the elves make something like that?

Also, please take pity on my little brother. I know he’s probably on the [adjective] list this year, and rightly so. It’s true that he [verb ending in -ed] the cat and left his [plural noun] all over the living room, but please don’t leave a lump of [noun] in his stocking! He’s a [adjective] kid at heart!

Sincerely,
Sally

Let’s Build a Snowman

One December morning during Christmas break, Bill and his little sister Jill woke up to [number] feet of snow outside. Feeling [adjective], they each put on their warmest [article of clothing] and went outside.

“Let’s have a [adjective] snowball fight with the kids next door!” said Bill [adverb].

“Naw, those kids are too [adjective],” said Jill. “We’re just going to end up breaking a [noun] and getting in trouble.”

“Hey, I know,” said Bill in a [adjective] voice. “Let’s build the most [adjective] snowman ever!”

Jill [adverb] agreed and they quickly gathered all the supplies they would need. For the snowman’s arms, Bill inserted two [plural noun]. For his eyes, Jill used some [plural noun] they found lying around the house. They dressed him up with an old [article of clothing] they found in their dad’s closet. And finally, for his [body part], they used a [vegetable].

[Number] hours later, they finally finished their creation and invited their mom to come and see.

“Wow,” said their mom, “that is the most [adjective] snowman I have ever seen. Next time maybe you could try making a snow [noun]!”

Santa’s Christmas Party

Most people don’t know that Santa and Mrs. Claus throw a big [adjective] holiday party every year. It happens on December 26, after all the [plural noun] have been given to the children and Santa finally has time to [verb]. The elves decorate the workshop with beautiful [plural noun], the reindeer are groomed until they look positively [adjective], and Santa welcomes [number] of his closest friends to the big event.

One of the highlights of the party is when the elves vote on the most [adjective] toy of the year. Past winners include Rock ’em Sock’ em [plural noun], Mr. [vegetable] Head, and [verb] Me Elmo. The most recent winners were the new Teenage [adjective] Ninja [animal] action figures.

Toward the end of the night, some holiday celebrities make an appearance, including Rudolph the Red-[body part]-ed Reindeer and Frosty the Snow [noun]. It’s all capped off with a speech by none other than [adjective] Saint Nick himself.

After everyone has had their fill of [food]nog and candy [plural noun], it’s time to go home. But for all those in attendance, Santa’s party is one more reason December is the most [adjective] time of the year.

Best White Elephant Ever

Last year’s White Elephant gift exchange was a blast! We had [number] participants, and the presents they brought ranged from hilarious to just plain [adjective].

If you don’t know what White Elephant is, perhaps you know it by a different name, like [adjective] Santa or [adjective] Swap. It’s a staple of the holiday season, like ugly [article of clothing] contests and Christmas [food] exchanges.

Dianne was the first to open a present, and it was an electric [noun], which was quite [adjective]. Everyone desperately wanted that gift, so it kept getting stolen! Later, Bob opened a novelty [noun] with a picture of [famous person] on it. Then, to top off the night, Betty got an oversized [noun] that [verb ending in -s] when you [verb] it. Everyone got quite a laugh out of that.

I had so much fun last year that I’m already looking for a [adjective] present to bring to the next gift exchange. I’m thinking of either a calendar with pictures of [adjective] [plural noun] or a [famous person] action figure that [verb ending in -s] on command. I guess it depends on which one fits the price limit, which is [number] dollars.
