Christmas Movie Bingo

Can you believe it's already December? This year feels like it has gone so fast! But the best thing about December is Christmas, the cold December nights...and days are perfect for snuggling up inside and watching as many Christmas films as possible. Now every year since starting Just Another Film Blog (Which turns 4 this month!) I have created Christmas movie watchlists, last year I even created two! If you are looking for a movie watchlist check out those here: 2020 Christmas Watchlists (justanotherfilmblog.uk) But this year I wanted to do something a little different, so I would like to introduce you to...drum roll...Christmas movie BINGO! 

Basically, watch a Christmas movie and cross off the bingo items when they happen. Or if you want to make this into a bit of a party game, drink every time something on the bingo happens. Thats it! simple. I will be playing this every day in December on Instagram. So make sure you are following along. 

Merry Christmas and thank you for reading xx
