How to Play The Grinch Movie Bingo

Bingo Instructions

Print a bingo card for each player or team.
Provide your guests with clipboards, pens, and the bingo card to complete, and instruct them to cross off the boxes.
Print one board, cut each square, and place them in a cup or bag for drawing. Place the tile to the side each time an item is called, so you may compare it to the winner's card.

The game's host (caller) makes a random drawing.

Each player crosses off an item as it is announced.

When a player notices that the selected things are aligned in a row (vertical, horizontal, or diagonal) on their card, they shout “Bingo!” to notify the other players of a winning card.

The game host (or an assistant aiding the host) is then prompted to check the card for confirmation of the win.

Players compete to be the first to come up with a winning arrangement for the prizes.

The players clear their boards (or start with a new bingo card) once a winner is declared, and the game host begins a fresh round of play.
