Ways to play
Two lines
Players need two complete lines instead of one, which stretches a round without making it a full blackout.
Reverse bingo
Everyone starts in the game, and players drop out when one of their squares is called. The last player standing wins.
Picture frame
Players must complete the full outer border of the card.
Speed round
Use 3x3 cards and call quickly. Rounds last about a minute and keep energy high.

Printing and setup
Print two cards per page on white or colored cardstock. Holiday games often have mixed ages, so print a few 3x3 cards for little ones and 5x5 cards for everyone else. Put the calling list in a festive bowl as slips of paper, or use our free bingo caller on a phone.
