- Bible Bingo can be a fantastic resource for your Children's Ministry. Children love to play games and this is a great way to provide a fun atmosphere for learning key bible truths. Most games have four different game boards so you can print enough for each child in your class. Print on cardstock and laminate for best results.

This Community Helpers Bingo game will help your students practice identifying the names of community helpers. I also have a set of Community Helpers Cards you can use with your Community Helpers theme.
I had made a bingo set and card set with illustrated clipart before I realized I could find all the community helpers in photographs, so I ended up making both. Choose whichever you prefer.
Community Helpers Bingo Game
The Community Helpers bingo game is played the way all standard bingo games are played. Each player gets a bingo mat. To cover the pictures while playing the game, you could use plastic bingo chips, flat floral marbles, or Unifix cubes.
The photo version of the bingo game has enough cards for 4 players, and the illustrated version has enough cards for 8 players. What I do when I have more than 4 kids (or 8) in a group is simply print extra cards. It doesn't matter if two children have the same card and fill their cards at the same time. We really don't play to win or lose with bingo games in my class. Pre-K children don't handle competition very well, so we all play until everyone fills their card.

GETTING READY TO PLAY BEGINNING SOUNDS BINGO
Full Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links.
Materials Needed: beginning bingo sheets (free printable below) and counters (candies, buttons, crackers, etc.)
Just print out the bingo sheets. I've included 8 FREE printable bingo boards (see below) that are in color. Each board is different in the set. You could laminate the boards if you want to use them for years to come.
Give each child a handful of counters. We used mini erasers. You could also use counting cubes, candy or buttons.
PLAYING BEGINNING SOUNDS BINGO
Have the kids cover up their free spot in the middle of the board.
Call out a sound. Each child should place a marker on a picture that begins with the sound called. Get five in a row or column and call, 'BINGO' to win.
For example, if you call the sound /t/, the child would cover up the picture of the tent.
A list of words is provided.
