I'm calling this Earth Day picture bingo, but the cards have the caption "Love the Earth Bingo" so they can be played at any point during the year. They also fit well into units about the environment, recycling, and community helpers.

​Teaching young children about Earth Day

Each Day is more than 50 years old! It has been celebrated on April 22 since 1970.

Earth Day started as a way to bring awareness to air pollution, pesticides, and contaminated drinking water. Today people also use the day to teach care of the Earth and to emphasize activities such as recycling, composting, and gardening. 

The book I Am Earth is a fun way to teach preschool and kindergarten aged students about the planet Earth.

How to print and use a printable picture bingo game

There's no need to buy a bingo cage or worry about numbered balls when you play this easy picture bingo game!

This picture bingo is a variation on the classic game of bingo. Instead of numbers, each space has an Earth Day-related image.

This Earth Day bingo game is fun for small groups. It can be used in classroom centers, for classroom parties, at home with your whole family, or with homeschool groups. Your kiddos will have to pay careful attention to make sure they cover the correct image!

These bingo cards have a 4x4 grid due to the relatively small image pool. There are 16 images on each card and a total of 22 images in the image pool. There are 10 unique cards in the set.

I prefer to use 32lb HP bright white paper instead of plain paper because it produces more crisp, vibrant images.

Laminate the sheets or slide them into dry erase pockets so they can be reused. Dry erase pockets and heavy duty sheet protectors are more Earth-friendly because they are reusable.

To save paper, you can print the cards two up (two to a page) and cut the paper in half with a paper trimmer.

How to play picture bingo

There is a sheet of calling cards at the back of the PDF. Cut them out and place all of the tiles into a bowl or bag. Make sure to print the tile page instead of cutting an extra card apart. There are 22 total images, but only 16 on each page.

Have an adult draw cards one at a time and announce/show the image to the players. Some of the images are similar, so children will have to pay close attention to the image.

​Players mark off each image as it's called.

The first player to get four in a row wins. Because of the smaller number of unique cards in this set, multiple children could "win" on the same turn.

In my experience, kids frequently want to play until they all win or have the whole card covered, so don't worry too much about having more than one "winner."
