What you need to Play the Game
–A Caller: the person who will pick the calling cards from the pile, hat or bowl and “call” the picture that will be covered next.
–At least 2 players.
In a pinch, the caller can also be a player but it is best if the caller is just the caller.
–1 Bingo card per player. That is the basic version.
If you want to make it challenging, you can also give players more than 1 card.
You can also play with teams if you have young players or a classroom and you don’t have enough different cards or are team building.
–Some sort of tokens or markers to keep track of what has been called.
If you are going the disposable route with your cards, just checking off the items with a pen, marker or dot marker is fine.
You can also laminate your cards to use them over and over and use a dry erase marker.
A very fun way to keep track of what has been called is to use tokens that have to do with the theme of the BINGO game being played.
Use candy corn for Halloween.
Use jelly beans for Easter.
The Dollar Tree—er, Dollar Twenty Five Cent Tree now—has all kinds of things that would be perfect, both edible and not edible.
You could also use cereal, coins, buttons, etc.
–The calling cards. These are on page 11 and 12 of your free printables. Just print out those pages and cut them out. You could laminate them if you want them to last longer.
–Something to put the calling cards in to pull them out of. A hat, bowl; something like that.
–This isn’t totally necessary but it may be helpful to give folks something to put their tokens in if you are using small somethings to put over the pictures as they are called. They will need about 25 of them so it will keep them from rolling around on the table or falling off.
How to play Bingo
Each player is given a Bingo card and a set of tokens. Assign someone to be the Bingo caller.
The winner is the first person to get 5 in a row in any direction. If you want to make it more challenging or take longer, make it so they need to get 5 in a row in TWO directions.
You could even play that whoever fills their card first wins. That would make the game last even longer.
Everyone covers the FREE SPACE in the middle of their card.
The Bingo caller pulls out one of the calling cards and calls it out to the players.
The players then cover that picture on their card.
The winner is the first to complete the winning line and shouts BINGO!
How to Print some but not all of the pages
There are 12 total pages here and you are welcome to all of them. If you don’t want to print them all, this is what you do:
When you hit the print button, you should get a pop-up page with options. It could also make you ask with a “3 dot” deal or a v to see more or even words that say “more options”.
One option will be whether you wish to print all of the pages or just some of them. You can type all or 1 or 1,3 or 3-5 or whatever pages you would like to print.
Ideas to print and preserve your printables:
Printing, writing on them and disposing is the quickest and easiest use of a printable of course, but there are other options if you choose.
Laminate them:
If you would like to print them once and use them year after year, you can laminate them and use dry erase markers to write on them. Then just file them away until next year. This is a great idea if you use them for a classroom year after year or for multiple classes hour after hour.

Buy Now →White Card Stock and Dry Erase Pockets:
A quicker and easier solution to a disposable printable if you don’t wish to laminate is printing on white card stock and slipping them into dry erase pockets. Children enjoy using colored markers and erasing when they are finished. They can do the same one over and over if they wish and even improve their speed. The pockets can be used for different cards and the cards filed away until ready to use again.
