How To Set Up Thanksgiving Bingo
Step 1: Download and print a copy of our Thanksgiving bingo printable including 15 unique bingo cards and 2 calling cards.
For best results, we recommend printing all our free printable bingo games in color and on high quality card stock letter size paper.
For more detailed download and print instructions see the next section of this blog post.
Step 2: These free printable bingo cards were created to be printed in 5 x 7 size. So, you’ll have to use scissors or a paper cutter to cut each bingo card out.
Cut out the second calling card into 25 small squares by cutting along the dotted lines.
Cut out as many bingo markers as you’ll need. If you are playing with a large group then plan to print a couple of pages of bingo markers.
Step 3: Decide who will be the bingo caller.
The bingo caller will place all 25 bingo pieces in a bag or bowl and give them a good toss to shake them up.
Step 4: Give each player their own bingo cards.
If you are playing with larger groups of people and you will not have enough cards, you can create small groups or print a second copy of our Thanksgiving bingo printable so each player gets their own card. If you do this, you will not be able to play blackout bingo since there will be duplicate cards in play. Keep that in mind if winners will get small prizes when they bingo.
Step 5: The bingo caller starts pulling a bingo piece from the bag/bowl.
Players mark the item on their card using a bingo marker. The first person to get a straight line up, down, across or diagonally BINGOS!
Bingo Game Alternatives
The best part of playing bingo is making the game even more challenging by playing alternate bingo games.
Here are some alternate bingo games you can use to extend the fun and play this great activity even longer!
- 4 corners: The lucky player to cover the four corners of card Bingos!
- X Pattern: The first person to find a row of 5 symbols in an X pattern through the free space wins.
- Blackout: Players continue until someone finds every symbol on their bingo card and covers it completely. This is also referred to as a blackout or full card. Since each of our different game boards is completely unique you can play blackout bingo with up to 15 different people.
- Postage stamp: The first person to get a 2×2 square in any of the corners Bingos!
- Arrow: The first player to create an arrow shape wins the game.
- BNO: The first player to cover lines B, N, O vertically Bingos!

I just signed up and I am having a horrible time trying to get the link to download the pdf of the thanksgiving bingo printable. I was able to get the Christmas bingo downloaded and saved. Please help!
Finally got an email with thanksgiving bingo but it was a zip file. I need a pdf version. Cannot open this on my iPad.
Hey Heather,
The Thanksgiving bingo is such an enormous file that it needs to be zipped. Is there any way you can unzip it on your tablet?
