Egg Bingo is made with egg cartons and table tennis balls. I borrowed the idea from a kids website and modified it. It worked so well that our clients commented how clever the idea was!

Thank You, Claudia...I play this game with residents in our Memory Care community and they love it. I have them draw the numbered ball out of the bag and call the number out. They think it's pretty cool they're calling Bingo.

Thanks,
Janice

We added a new feature to our Egg Bingo game and it's a lot of fun! I bought 18 small fish nets in the $2 shop (the ones for fish tanks, see the picture) and each resident or client try to catch his or her own ping pong ball when is call. We bounce the ball in the center of the table towards the client. They help each other, they clap when somebody gets the ball, they tease each other and interact a lot . It's a lot of fun!

Brilliant game . Its a very popular weekly activity with residents picking out the next coloured
ping pong ball ( yet another skill ) and loads of laughter especially when they pick out their
own number. Winning a prize theve chosen makes their day !

Hi Rocio, we added a photo at the top a few months ago - can you see this? It shows the egg cartons with numbers at the bottom and corresponding numbered ping pong balls.

I LOVE this activity. Thanks for posting. Could even promote the use of tongs to add another layer of skill for those interested!

We have been playing Egg carton Bingo weekly, for at least the last 6 months in our Memory support area. It is always a great hit. Residents are engaged and lots of laughs ensue. It is also a wonderful "go to game".
Golden Carers is a superb resource.

Cute idea for multi-generational "Bingo"! I'm def. going to try this, but instead of buying table tennis balls I will use my easter eggs....we already have tons of them. Thanks for the idea.
