About this resource
Spring Bingo is a picture bingo game for K–2 with 36 spring words, 30 boards, calling cards and a call sheet, so you can print it tonight and play it tomorrow. Every square is one clear picture with its word printed under it, so players match, say and read the word. Each board is 5 by 5 with a FREE center, in color and in black and white. It is a good fit for a spring party, a literacy center, speech and language groups, English learner groups and whole-class vocabulary review.
WHAT IS INCLUDED - 78 pages
- 36 calling cards, 9 to a page, edge to edge for straight cuts, each with its picture, number and word

The Words
ladybug, kite, rainbow, umbrella, butterfly, tulip, nest, bumble bee, frog, bunny, lamb, duck, hen, caterpillar, snail, ant, dragonfly, grasshopper, daisy, sunflower, flower, seed packet, garden hose, lawn mower, sun, sunglasses, rain cloud, tadpole, egg, basket, rain boots, grass, bird, bicycle, tractor, beehive.
How To Play
1. Give each player a board and tokens (or jelly beans, dry beans or counters). Players cover the FREE square first.
2. The caller turns a card, says the word and shows the picture. Players say it back.
3. Players cover the picture; the caller ticks the word on the call sheet.
4. A row, a column, a diagonal or the four corners wins, and the FREE square counts; the winner calls Bingo and reads the words. Play for a full board when there is time.
Three ways to level it: show the picture and say the word (starting); say the word only, then show the picture after a count of three (building); give a clue and let players name the picture before they cover it (ready for more).
About The Pictures
Kid-friendly clip art by Whimsy Clips. Every picture is one thing a young child can point to and name.

Who This Is For
