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
Thanks for publishing this one! I had a great time getting it together. The experience was fairly easy so I will be trying my hand at other DIY templates as well. Your site is the best I have used in the last 36 years of my career as an Activity Director, Certified! I wish I had known about your site whenever it first started! So much content and idea sharing… no need to reinvent the wheel! 😊
I'm not sure if you're aware but there is a bingo generator on Golden Carers.
If you want to try it out, go to the quiz page and select 'create quiz' and choose type 'bingo'.
https://www.goldencarers.com/create-your-own-quiz/6079/
It will automtically generate the bingo pages and calling cards for you.
Here is one created by another member recently:
https://www.goldencarers.com/birdwatch-bingo/7674/
You can then print the bingo game or select the 'play' option to use the automatic bingo caller.
Any questions, let me know!
