Forest bingo

Waldbingo is a fun outdoor game to familiarize children with nature and awaken their interest in the environment. It sharpens observation skills, encourages outdoor exercise in the fresh air and expands knowledge about the animal and plant world. The game can be played in many different ways, depending on what kind of natural materials are available in the area. You can find various suggestions here.

The aim of forest bingo is to be the first or a group of children to fill the egg carton with the depicted things and objects from nature.

Material required:

• Egg carton
• Bingo templates with pictures of natural features and objects that can be found in the forest or in nature
• For children who can already read, small pieces of paper with a description are also suitable.
• Optional: Nature guides or identification books to help children recognize the features they are looking for

1. Preparation: Each child or group receives an egg carton with the forest bingo templates.
2. The children begin to explore nature and find the objects they are looking for. As soon as a child discovers an object they are looking for, they place it in the egg carton.
3. The first one to find everything shouts BINGO. Alternatively, the game can also end when all children have completely filled their egg cartons.
