Printable bingo card with colorful natural winter designs including a fox, snowflake, red berries, and a deer. Printable slanted on a wooden background with clear plastic bingo chips.

Instead of 25 squares like a traditional bingo game, each bingo card has only 9 squares. Making this a perfect activity for young children.

Great for group settings including homeschooling, nature camps, and classrooms.

Kids can work in pairs and play the game together. Picking out the calling cards is also a fun task for kids to manage.

Each bingo card has realistic images of winter scenes and animals for your kids to identify. As they play they can describe each of the images including the colors and shapes of the objects.

Winter Wildlife and Scenes

I wanted to highlight the wildlife and scenes associated with winter. Your kids can find a jumping fox, a hibernating bear, and even birds at a feeder on the bingo cards.

For winter scenes, your kids can point out an icy river, snowy hill, and foot prints in the snow!

Supplies

Printer Paper- I prefer to print onto card stock for a sturdier game
Printer with Color Ink
Bingo Markers- clear plastic chips, stones, cotton balls, or even paper punched snowflakes
Scissors- to cut out the calling cards
Bag or Bin- to store all the cards when not in use
Laminator (Optional)- I love using an at home laminator, but self laminating sheets are another great option

The great thing about this game is you can play it over and over again. Plus you can store it away and use it again next season!

BINGO Patterns

There are many different bingo patterns you can make while you play. Players can try to mark off all of the objects within a row or column. Or even vertically across the board.

Blackout where every object is marked off is a fun variation along with four corners. Or even the outside perimeter of the card.

Whatever option you decide, make sure all of the players know the winning pattern before starting the game.
