How to Play Birthday Bingo
Playing bingo is easy and fun at any type of birthday-themed party.
Once you’ve printed your free bingo templates and call sheets prepare yourself to play.
The first thing you need to do is cut along the dotted line on one of your call sheets.
We don’t cut the second because we use it to help us keep track of what birthday-related items have been called as we progress through the game.
This method is also an easy way to verify each bingo as your guests play and win.
Place your cut-out call sheet items into a bowl or cup and give them a good shake. Select one person to be the caller. Switch up the caller after each round to give all players a change to play birthday bingo.
Once you’ve got your cards printed you need to give different bingo cards to each person playing and begin playing the game.
The first player to mark 5 items by making vertical, horizontal, or diagonal lines wins!
We suggest giving small prizes to winners since it’s a fun and exciting addition to any bingo game. For some prize ideas check out some of our top suggestions down below.
Bingo Game Alternatives
If you are interested in challenging guests with more complex Bingos there are configurations that you can request.
