Step-By-Step:
Start by downloading the Preptober PDF by clicking on the "Print" button above.
Open the PDF and print it.
For random calling, you can print another copy of the call list, cut, fold and then pick them randomly at play time.
Cut the bingo cards at the cut marks if there are greater than 1 bingo cards per page.
Give one card to each player. For marking, you can use crayons. Crayons cost the least.
Select one person to be the caller. If you are playing in a small group, the caller can as well play along with their own Bingo card.
The caller opens the game by randomly picking an item from the call list and saying it to all players.
The players scan their cards to see if they have the called word. If they do, they cross off that word.
The first player to finish a horizontal, vertical, or a diagonal line of crossed items yells "Bingo!" and wins the game.
The caller checks that the items marked form a proper line as per the Bingo card and call list.
You can play for multiple patterns or a full card blackout for a longer game.
