www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Youth Icebreakers - Easter Bingo Can you cover all the squares in your Easter Bingo Board? www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com
www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Materials1. Bingo cards for each participant. Make Bingo cards using a grid of squares (5X5) and placing Easter related items in each square. Make each card different in the choice of items on it and the placement of the items. (Bingo cards are typically unique for each individual. There are also usually more items than spaces on the bingo grid so that not every card has all the items.) www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com
www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com 2. Coins or markers to cover squares. Jelly beans work well. You can also simply allow them to mark on the cards.3. Bingo items in bag to pull out. Write them on small pieces of paper or ping pong balls. www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com
www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Game Play1. Pass out the bingo cards.2. Give each child a supply of jelly beans for markers on the board. Ask them not to eat them until the game is over.3. Draw one slip of paper at a time from the hat or box. Read the item aloud.4. Ask participants to look for the item on their paper. If they find it, they should place a jelly bean over it. (Make sure each participant covers the free space.) www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com
www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com 5. Play until someone gets five markers in a row either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. The first person to do so must yell out “He is Risen” and wins. Check the grid to make sure the placement of the markers agrees with those that have been called out.6. Repeat the game a few times or keep on playing the first game until each child has covered five squares in a row.7. Let everyone eat the candy after the game is over. www.CreativeEasterIdeas.com
