What do kids learn by playing bingo?
Kids learn to match objects. Perceiving the similarities and differences of an object helps preschoolers categorize things according to their color, shape, size or function.
They learn logic. Matching is a mind exercise. It helps a child use logic, which helps with academic learning.
They learn to use their words so to speak, which encourages verbal communication.
Kids learn to take turns and interact with others in a fun way.
Kids learn to focus and playing games lengthens their attention span as they are encouraged to finish the game.
How to Play Bingo
Number of Players: This Cars and Trucks Bingo Game can be played by 2-4 players.
Give out one Bingo card to each player.
Turn the Bingo calling cards upside down and mix them up.
The youngest player picks a Bingo calling card.
All players then check to see if the chosen calling card exactly matches an object on their own Bingo card.
Those with a match put a marker on the matching object. The game continues on with the 2nd youngest player, and so on.
