Christmas Pictionary online for your team
No printed cards and no whiteboard to share. Scribble picks the Christmas words, one person draws on their own screen, and everyone else types guesses in their browser while you talk on the call. It’s free.
Scribble is free to play, with the Christmas word set. Draw Battle and the other premium games are included with a TeamBridge pass ($299 for 7 days or $499 for 12 months).

Tips for Christmas drawing games at work
Start while people join
Drawing games work with a half-full call: people join mid-round and play the next turn.
Use teams for big calls
Draw Battle splits the call into two teams that draw the same word at the same time, with its own Christmas words.
Turn on the holiday theme
The lobby has a holiday theme for festive colors while you play.
Book it early
In 2026, the last Friday before Christmas is Friday, December 18. Put the call in the calendar at the start of December.
Questions
How do you play Christmas Pictionary online?
Open a Scribble lobby on TeamBridge, pick the Christmas word set and share the link. Players take turns drawing a Christmas word on their own screen while everyone else types guesses; the game scores the fastest right answers.
Is it free?
Yes. Scribble, with the Christmas words, is free to play, as are eight other games on TeamBridge. Players join from the link without an account.
Can we play it on Microsoft Teams or Zoom?
Yes. Paste the lobby link in the meeting chat; everyone draws and guesses in a browser tab next to the call, so nobody has to share a whiteboard.
How many Christmas words are there?
About 90, from snowman and candy cane to gingerbread house and winter wonderland. You can also pick Easy, Medium, Hard, Objects or People words for the next round.
Can people play on a phone?
Yes. Guessing and drawing both work on a phone, though a laptop or tablet is easier for drawing.
What do the premium drawing games cost?
Draw Battle and the other premium games come with a TeamBridge pass: $299 for 7 days or $499 for 12 months, for up to 200 players. Scribble stays free.
