Game Play
- Choose a caller. The callers says which BINGO version will be played. Example: "This game will be Top Row BINGO". The caller spreads the Calling Mat out, then shuffles the Calling Cards and stacks them face-down by the Calling Mat.
- Pass out one Playing Card and Chips to each player.
- Start playing! The caller:
- draws one Calling Card at a time,
- calls out the letter on the card and may show the card to the group, then
- covers the correct letter on the Calling Mat with the card
- Use a chip to cover the square on your Playing Card with the letter that matches the letter called.
- When someone covers all squares for the variation being played, he or she calls "BINGO", then says the covered letters for the caller to check against those covered on the Calling Mat.
- If the answers match, you have a winner! Reshuffle the Calling Cards and start a new game.
- If the answers don't match, keep playing until someone has BINGO.
TIP: Get to know the letters of the alphabet. Practise finding different letters in articles, magazines, and newspapers.
