For random drawing, you can print another copy of the call list, cut, fold and then pull them randomly at play time.
Cut the bingo cards at the cut lines if there are more than 1 bingo cards per page.
Give one card to each player. For marking, you can use pens. Crayons are the cheapest.
Select one person to be the caller. If you are playing in a small group, the caller may also play along with their own Bingo card.
The caller initiates the game by randomly picking an item from the call list and saying it to everyone.
The players check their cards to see if they have the called word. If they do, they mark that word.
The first player to complete a horizontal, vertical, or a diagonal line of crossed items announces "Bingo!" and wins the game.
The caller confirms that the items crossed off form a proper line as per the Bingo card and call list.
You can play for multiple patterns or a full card blackout for an extended game.
