United States Bingo Game Introduction
This United States Bingo game is a great twist on traditional bingo. It uses the bingo concept to also teach kids about the geography and commerce of the United States.
The instructions for playing the game are written right on the inside of the box so you have no chance of losing them. Although, most people probably already know how to play bingo.

What does the United States Bingo Game come with?
This game included:
–United States Bingo tiles
-drawstring bag to hold tiles
-6 United States Bingo cards
Having fun playing this game…
There is one person that is the “caller” who pulls the tiles out of the bag. If you are playing with less than 6 people, you can give each player more than one card or you can start out with one card each.
Here is Jack taking a tile out of the bag. Since he is a pre-reader, it was great that there were a lot of great pictures on the tiles and cards for him to match up.
Here are some pics of the cards with a few tiles on them. One of the things that may be confusing with this game is that there are duplicate tiles for different states. The tiles have to do with the commerce and industry of each state. If agriculture and/or livestock is in multiple states, a pre-reader may put the wrong state tile down. This is just something to watch out for but it does not make the game any less fun.
These are all 6 cards and all the game comes with. We had a great time playing this and I think if we played it a few times, Jack would begin to really learn a lot about the geography and commerce of the United States without even realizing it!
Here is a video of us getting ready to play the game:
This United States Bingo game reminded us of our United States puzzle. I think doing this puzzle is a great way to extend the learning and fun we had with the bingo game! There are a lot of great United States puzzles out there. If you interested in your own, you can’t go wrong with Melissa & Doug, check them out on Amazon.
