Bug Bingo (Magma for Laurence King)

Product Information

Start playing by having one person pull out a small square card out of the pile and call it out or by showing the picture or saying the number on the card.

Another challenge is by making an X across your bingo card. To get a bingo, you must have two diagonal lines from corner-to-corner crossing in the center. Pair these with an insect hunt or nature walk to see the bugs in their natural habitats. Or simply use these to create an insect themed writing center. If you have more than 10 people, you can make groups of people with 10 or less people, or go for this set of 30 Insect bingo cards. Each of these cards comes with different bugs and insects. Did you know that minibeasts produce some of our everyday items, such as silk (from silkworms), food colouring and flavourings (from different types of bugs), and beeswax (from bees)?

Simply show or call out the different ladybird cards in turn and have your pupils cover up the number if they have it on their card. Great to help children's listening, recognition and number skills.Play Speed Bingo by continuously announcing numbers from the bowl rather than pausing and waiting for players to be ready for another round.

Or see our craft books for kids.

If you’re an adult and want to challenge your friends then make sure you ask for photographic evidence of anything spotted. The loser might have to pay for a meal out for example (when it’s safe to go out to restaurants again of course.) Or the first person to get all 4 corners can expect a bottle of wine to be dropped on the doorstep by the loser (if you’re just playing against one friend that is).The world is full of bugs and insects and kids of all ages find them fascinating! Best part about exploring them with kids? You can find them any time of year right outside of your door! You can print and cut out the themed paper markers included in each bingo kit. These small pieces may become choking hazards for small children.
