Hi Alina. Bingo is normally played with numbers, so that is what I�ll use for my example! Each person gets a bingo card; basically a sheet of paper with a list of numbers. Each sheet should have a different set of numbers. The person running the game calls out a number at a time, pausing to allow the players time to check if they have that number on their sheet/card. If they do, the player crosses the number off their list. The aim of the game is to be the first person to have crossed off all the numbers on their card. When that happens, they must yell out "Bingo!" The person running the game will then usually check their sheet, to make sure they haven�t crossed out a number that hasn�t been called. There are pages on Wikipedia about Bingo like these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bingo_(British_version) I didn�t even know there was a British and an American verson. I hope that helps! |

I will add that there are different variations you can get creative with. For example: for a shorter game, make it so a person only has to fill a single line to get a Bingo, or that they have to fill in the four corners, or just the outer frame of numbers.
OBTW: nice explanation Sevilla

Just one more thing, you can use other vocabulary than numbers. For instance food, animals, whatever you need to exercise. |

Hi Kohai and Hi Douglas, thank you for your kind words. I�ve been away for too long for two reasons, my husband and I, we both got cancer problems. He is doing fine, by now, but I am still fighting my breast cancer. In the meantime I retired and today Summer arrives and here, in the North of Portugal, where I live, it�s raining cats and dogs. I long for Summer days, having dinner outside, in the back yard, meeting the family and friends ... Covid away .... kisses and hugs to you all. <3 |
