You might need to use tools that require adult supervision, such as glue gun and scissors. If so, these can be replaced by textile glue and safety scissors. Make sure you ask your parents some help.

These St. Patrick’s Day bingo cards can be printed off for any number of children. The cards refresh on the screen with random numbers. 

Note: In our version of a bingo game you do not call off the letters. Print the numbers sheet below and only call the numbers. The same numbers sheet can be used with any of our bingo games.

What you’ll need:

• Computer
• Printer
• Printer paper or card stock (print off on light green paper if desired)
• Printable bingo cards (see below)
• Scissors
• Green-colored candies or other markers (see tips for ideas)
• Clear self-adhesive shelf paper (recommended: Con-Tact paper) or laminate (optional)
• Bowl
• Cardboard (optional)
• Glue, optional

How to make it:

1. Print a page of St. Patrick’s Day Lucky Bingo cards
   
   If you experience printing problems: Try to use the ‘shrink to fit’ print option to get them to print on the page. Or try changing the font size to something smaller by going to the “View” menu in your browser and increase or decrease the font size. If that fails to help, you can print the page in ‘landscape’ mode and get two complete cards per page instead of four.
2. Now refresh your browser. The page now displays new random numbers!
3. Print the page again.
4. Be sure to print off enough playing cards for each person to have one.
5. If desired, cover with clear self-adhesive paper or laminate to be able to reuse the cards again next year.
6. Print a page of bingo numbers. HINT: Print off on card stock or glue to cardboard to give the numbers stability.
7. Cut the numbers apart on the lines.
8. Place the numbers in a bowl.
9. Give each person a bingo card and a handful of markers (see tips below).
10. Reach into the bowl, call out a number and the people place a marker on the number if it appears on their card.
11. Play the game just like regular bingo. Play for 5 in a row across, down, diagonally, or even play blackout by covering all the numbers on the card

Tips:

1. Number markers can be holiday candy, punched circles from card stock, flat buttons, or any small item of which you have a multitude!
