Easter Bingo Games

Easter is the religious festival that commemorates the crucifixion, passion, and resurrection of the Christian savior, namely, the Lord Jesus Christ. Of course, Easter is today not only a religious holiday but a secular holiday too - and known for Easter bunnies, chocolate and Easter eggs.

In schools and community groups, as well as in family gatherings, it is common to organise a variety of activities around Easter, such as Easter egg hunts and the making of Easter bonnets. One additional activity that you may not have considered, but can be a lot of fun for people of all ages (and they can even play together) is a game of Easter bingo.

Easter bingo is played just like the standard game of bingo, except, instead of using standard bingo cards which are printed with numbers, you play using bingo cards printed with words or phrases related to Easter - words such as "bunny", "Easter egg" or "egg hunt". One of the best features of Easter bingo, is that since it is so similar to standard bingo, pretty much everybody will know how to play, or can learn the game very quickly. Winners in Easter bingo can be rewarded with chocolates (of course), but if the occasion suits, why not ask them to do a forfeit, like telling a joke, singing a song, etc., before rewarding them with their prize!

If you are wondering where you can Easter-themed bingo cards, don't worry. It is very easy to download free Easter bingo printables from the Internet, or alternatively you can download a bingo card creator computer program, which makes light work of printing customized bingo cards.
