Before we ended our introductory week to home school preschool, my daughter and I wanted to end it with a fun game that we read about from Letter of the Week.  I titled our game “Letter Bingo” but I wish I had titled it “Alphabet Bingo” like the title of my blog post!

What You Need:
Paper
Pen
Place markers (we used M&MS!!!)
Ruler (optional)

What You Do:

1. Make a 5×5 BINGO card.  If you want it to look nice, go ahead and use a ruler for straight lines and measurements.  Neither my daughter or I cared enough, so I just threw it together freehand.
2. Place letters randomly throughout the card, leaving the center as a “FREE” space.
3. Call out letters randomly and have child put a place marker on the letter that is called out.
4. When child has a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal line completed, they win!
5. If you are using a food item as a place marker, have fun eating when it’s over!

This is a really easy, fast, and fun alphabet game!  I chose to do it during little brother’s nap time, as I did not want him to eat a bunch of candy while we were trying to use them as place markers.  We do not give candy often, but I just wanted to end the week off with a bang!

Enjoy!
