Just wanted to know if you laminated the 16 bingo cards and gave dry wipe marker to the players then you could wipe and use again . Please let me know what you people think..?
Yes I laminated my game and many others so that they can be used over and over again. I first mounted the individual pictures ( 16 per card) on card, out lined the pictures in a grid effect the laminated the whole card. I used the name of the bingo game eg. Royal Bingo, Film Star Bingo, Dog Bingo etc.. on the top of each card. I also bought some wax pencils that could be easily rubbed off at the end of the game. Hope this is helpful to you. The bingo games that I have made up so far are very much enjoyed. Thank you goldencarers.

Your Bingo activities are great Sara. Would you be willing to share the Bingo generator/template that you use? I would love to contribute to this site and have had a few requests / ideas from our residents. Much appreciated!

I actually don't use a generator, I do it manually using Microsoft publisher. I'll share my template here, the first 16 pages are the bingo cards and starting on page 17 is where I put all the images for the calling cards. If you have any other questions let me know!
Hi Joan Press download and print Depending on which program you have print all of the pages Page 17 and beyond are calling cards so you hand out 16 of the cardsand then page 17 and beyond you use like calling numbers for regular bingo If you need to you can print more than one copy of one through 16 depending on the size group you have Also you can use the pictures for other purposes if you want
I am loving the Golden Carers membership. I am finding great resources that I used on the first day of membership. The membership is of much value working as both an Activities Director, and also an Activities Consultant. I look forward to continuing to use the site and also the forum.
