How do you keep the kids busy while you're preparing Thanksgiving dinner? You'd probably never choose bingo because the kids need you to call the game. This game is different! Since the boards come with picture calling cards, even the youngest member of your family (sorry--no babies) can be in charge of the game. All she or he has to do is pick a card and hold it up for the rest of the players to see. It's easy, and there's no parent supervision needed.
How to Play
Since this game is obviously different than traditional Bingo, here's how it works: Cut the two pages of calling cards into individual cards and put them into a bag or hat. To play, pull a card out of the hat, and call out what is on the card (or just show the card). Players look for that picture on their card and cover it up. Continue pulling cards from the bag one at a time until someone gets five in a row. (You cannot play blackout because every card has every picture on it. This game is meant to be played for traditional five-in-a-row bingo only.)
