Bingo for any occasion
Bingo works for birthday parties, care homes, classrooms, baby showers and fundraisers. All you need is a set of different cards and something to call. Number bingo uses the familiar 75-ball American layout; word bingo turns the game into vocabulary practice or a themed party game.
Options
Card type. 75-ball numbers, or your own words (at least 24).
Cards per page. One large card for easy reading, two or four to save paper.
Free centre. The traditional free square in the middle, or a full card.
Card set number. Change it for new cards; keep it to reprint the same set.
Ideas for word bingo
- Spelling words, with the teacher reading definitions instead of the words.
- Baby shower bingo with gift items.
- Holiday bingo with things to spot on a car journey.
- Language lessons: call the word in one language, cross it off in the other.
Printing tips
Print at 100% / Actual size on card if you want reusable cards, and use counters or dry-wipe pens.

Frequently asked questions
How are the 75-ball cards laid out?
Each card has five columns: B holds numbers from 1 to 15, I from 16 to 30, N from 31 to 45, G from 46 to 60 and O from 61 to 75, with five different numbers in each column. The centre square is free unless you turn that off.
Are all the cards different?
Yes. Every card is drawn at random from the card set number, so a page of four has four different cards and each page in a multi-page PDF is different again.
How does word bingo work?
Choose Words from my list and type at least 24 words (25 without a free square). Each card shows 24 of them in a random order. Call the words out from your list.
How many cards can I print?
Up to four per page and up to 50 pages, so 200 cards in one PDF.
Can I reprint the same cards?
Yes. The same card set number always produces the same cards, so write the number down if you want to reprint them.
What do I call the numbers from?
Write 1 to 75 on slips of paper, or call numbers using any random number generator, crossing them off a list as you go.
