DIY Bingo

If you’re looking to play bingo with friends and family from home, then you really don’t need much to make it work. There are a number of essential items, but you can make it fun and fair in a number of different ways.

Of course, first things first you need some bingo cards and pencils or dabbers for all your players. You’ll find plenty of examples of bingo cards online, while you can create your own, with you simply needing to create a series of grids. For 90-ball bingo you need a 3×9 grid, with five boxes containing numbers on each row. For the 75-ball variant, you’d need a card that’s 5×5.

You then need a device for drawing the numbers. You can essentially be as inventive as you like with this, all that’s required is that the draw is made fairly. It could be balls out of a bingo machine or bag, while you can even write the numbers on pieces of paper and draw them out of a hat or box.

The opportunities are fairly endless with this, the only other thing you need is a dedicated bingo caller and a prize.

DIY Bingo Checklist:

  • Set of Pens
  • Bingo Cards
  • Balls/balls replacements
  • Drawing mechanism
