Get into the festive spirit with these fun, educational activities

To help you and the family get into the festive spirit, The Consumer Council has designed a series of games, quizzes and activities for everyone to get involved with this Christmas.

You’ll be learning about scams, consumer rights and budgeting alongside our mascot, Peanut the Squirrel. Activities include Pictionary, Christmas-themed colouring sheets, spot the scam, and many more fun activities. Who said learning couldn’t be fun?

These activities will keep you and the family busy and entertained on the road to Christmas. They have been designed to have a learning element too, so you may learn something new yourself!

In addition, you may even win a prize! The Consumer Council is asking you to tag it in photos of you and your family playing these activities on Twitter at @ConsumerCouncil or on Facebook to be in with a chance to win a £25 Love2Shop voucher.

The Christmas-themed activities are available at: www.consumercouncil.org.uk/activities/christmas

But it doesn’t stop there, The Consumer Council also has a range of other educational activities focusing on consumer rights, avoiding scams and budgeting on its dedicated Activities webpage: www.consumercouncil.org.uk/activities
