Getting ready to play
To prepare for your bingo game, you’ll need the five free printable bingo boards (5×5) included here, along with images to cut out for calling.
Simply print out the game, whether in color or black and white. I prefer using cardstock for durability, but any printer paper will do just fine.
For a polished look that you can use year after year, consider laminating the boards and calling cards. If you’re like me, you probably have a laminator on hand for all your projects!
Once you’ve printed and laminated (if you choose to), grab a paper trimmer to cut out the images for the calling cards. If you’re feeling crafty, scissors work too, just be sure to keep the bingo boards intact.
Finally, place the cut-out images into a hat or a festive cornucopia, ready for the fun to begin! Enjoy the game, and don’t forget to check out the turkey bingo cards for even more holiday fun!
Make sure to include the free turkey bingo cards for a little extra holiday cheer!
How to play
Once you’ve printed all the bingo boards and cut out the calling cards, you’re ready to dive into the game!
Start by giving each player a bingo card and something to use as dot markers, small candies, coins, or buttons work great.
Next, designate one person as the bingo caller. This person will announce the images that correspond to the squares on the bingo cards.
The caller randomly selects an image from the hat and announces it to the players. For example, they might say “Turkey” or “Pumpkin.”
Players then check their bingo cards to see if they have the announced image. If they do, they place a marker on that square. The goal is to complete a row, column, or diagonal of marked squares. Once a player has a complete line, they shout “Bingo!” to signal their win.
After someone calls out “Bingo,” everyone pauses to verify that the marked images on their card indeed form a valid line. If everything checks out, that player wins the round!
You can play multiple rounds, switching the caller each time so everyone gets a chance to win. To make it even more exciting, consider offering small prizes for the winners of each round, such as Thanksgiving-themed stickers or small treats.
