Just print and play with these Free Road Trip Bingo Printables! Find things all along your journey! 10 copies, master list and rules included.
Everyone loves Bingo and with these Free Road Trip Bingo Printables you will be set to enjoy plenty of games with friends and family!
Pages 1-10 are all different boards so up to 10 people can play.
Page 11 and 12 have all of the pictures on them with words to explain what each picture is just in case it isn’t clear. They are meant to print out and be taken along in case they are needed.
Most are very clear but ones like a luggage rack with something on it may not be. Road kill is another that isn’t really clear. I purposely made that one unclear, lol.
When we played this game way back when, I had typed up rules for several of the items. I will add them for you below under “Items on the List”. Use them if you like them and if you don’t, feel free to do it your way of course.
If you are in a different part of the country or a different country totally, some of these may not work this way at all. These worked for us and lest our competitive natures got the best of us, we had them written out.
When we played this as a family many years ago, it was handwritten. I didn’t have the internet tools I do now. We had a lot of fun with it and passed many hours in the car with this game.
I hope you love this game as much as we did!

What you need to Play the Game
–A Caller: Usually someone would pull cards from a hat or bowl and call out what is to be covered on each card. In the case of Road Trip Bingo, the “Caller” is what is outside the vehicle’s windows!
Look all around! Look at other vehicles, IN other vehicles, on other vehicles, along the sides of the road, to the sides, in front of you, behind you, close by and far out!
–At least 2 players.
–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 are on a bus with more people than cards.
–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.
In this case of Road Trip Bingo, I definitely recommend using a pen or marker instead of tokens. Tokens won’t work at all. An even better idea and fun, would be stickers to apply when an item is found.
(The only problem with stickers is that there is no way to verify that it was done correctly at the end of the game if that is needed. Maybe very small stickers to be put in the square so that the picture can still be seen would be an idea.)
You can also laminate your cards to use them over and over and use a dry erase marker.
How to play Bingo
Each player is given a Bingo card and something to mark the spaces when they find the items.
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.
Review the rules of the game before starting. Decide for example, whether someone can count more than 1 item in the same area.
A construction area may have a construction sign, a dump truck, a crane, and a port-a-pot all very close to each other. May someone cross off all 4 within that close area? Yes? No? It is your game. You decide. Just decide before you begin playing so everyone knows.
And while the construction example may not be allowed, that person may be allowed to get one of those items out of the right hand window and a school bus passing you in the left hand window because that is different. Just make it clear.
The winner is the first to complete the winning line or lines 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.

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.
