St Patricks Day Bingo Cards
Most people are familiar with the game of bingo. It is played with bingo cards containg a five by five grid of squares, with each square containing a word or number. Each player is given a bingo card, and marks off the squares from their card when the corresponding number is announced by the bingo caller. In most games, the winner is the first player to achieve a line of five items across the card (regardless of whether that line is horizontal, vertical or diagonal) and call “bingo”. For a longer game, other target patterns than a single line can be required, for example two lines of five, a postage stamp shape of three by three squares, all squares marked off, etc.
Today versions of bingo, played exactly like the “standard” game, but using cards printed with words or phrases instead of numbers, are become increasingly popular. No doubt this is in part because with the helper of a computer and bingo card maker software, it’s dead easy to produce these cards! However, the main reason why these versions of bingo have become popular is that they can be used in schools and education, as well as in community events and gatherings celebrating both religious and secular holidays.
St. Patrick’s Day (usually March 17th, although the date may move if it falls within Holy Week), which is annual event of honor of one of Ireland’s patron saints but has subsequently become a celebration of all things Irish, is an ideal occasion for playing bingo. In St. Patrick’s Day bingo, the game is of course played using bingo cards printed with words or phrases relating to Ireland or Irish culture. It’s a lot of fun to play, inexpensive, and suitable for people of all ages to play together - may be you should give it a try?
