How to play picture bingo
Playing picture bingo is fun and easy: Print as many bingo cards as you need. Make sure to print the call cards at the back, too. I always use presentation paper. It’s a heavyweight paper with a special coating for crisp, vibrant images. Laminate your bingo cards and call cards. This is optional, but highly recommended. When I use my colored ink, I want my printables to last! Cut out the call cards. I use this paper trimmer. I’ve had it since 2015 and it’s still doing strong! Find something to use as markers for your cards. If you’ve laminated them, players can cross off called images with a dry erase marker or crayon. I like to cut and use squares of cardstock because they’re no-mess, not a choking hazard, and reusable. Place the call cards in a bowl and draw them one at a time. Show the image around. Players mark off the image if they have an exact match on their card. The first player to get five in a row in a straight line or on the diagonal yells “bingo!” to win. Don’t be surprised if your kids want to trade cards and play again. And again. That’s why I recommend laminating them! You can also place the cards in dry erase pockets if you don’t have a laminator. I always use laminate my bingo cards or use dry erase pockets. It’s the only way they’ll last more than a day or two with my toddler!

Playing board games (as opposed to electronic games) with your children has a variety of benefits, including: Download your four free printable fall bingo boards
Opportunities for learning and structure, taking turns, and following directions Improved language skills Sharpened focus Increased visual discrimination skills Teaching the value of cooperation and teamwork
Games can also help your child develop their emotional intelligence and self-regulation skills. If things don’t work out exactly as they’d hoped, they have the opportunity to learn about resiliance and develop their coping skills.
