How to play bingo
- Give each player a different card.
- The caller draws numbers or words at random and announces them.
- Players mark matching squares. The center free space counts as already marked.
- The first player to complete a row, column or diagonal shouts "Bingo!" and wins after the caller checks the card.
Fun variations
- Four corners: mark all four corner squares.
- Blackout: mark every square on the card.
- Letter shapes: make an X, T or L pattern.
- Picture frame: mark the whole outer border.
