Chapters
We can all admit, we love a game of bingo - even if it is for old people.
It’s fun, engaging and can get competitive; and that’s exactly why it's one of our favourite ice breaker games.
Furthermore, we adore people bingo (also known as the ‘autograph game’ or ‘did you know?’) because it is fun, easy to organise and even easier to teach.
Simply put, the objective of the game is for employee’s to wander around the room and get signatures of people who have the facts listed on the bingo sheet - but we’ll explain it in more detail in a second.
It might sound almost too simple, but being simple leaves nothing to be over complicated and allows employees to interact with each other without feeling any pressure. It's a great way to run an easy ice breaker game for the first day of your new team.
We got you covered and written step by step directions for you to follow for your next bingo game!
If you know your employees reasonably well, make a list of 25 interesting things that you know describes different aspects of them.
For example “lived in Sweden”, “Can speak two or more languages”, “plays the guitar” or “has a red porsche” (alright for some, hey!).
If you don’t know your employees at all, make a list of 25 general ice breaker questions. For instance, “has brown hair” or “works for the HR team”.
You can make your questions easy or difficult, depending on how long you want the game to last.
It is very easy to make your own people bingo cards.
You can either use a regular printer, or there are many places online where you can create customised people human bingo cards; which you can find further down the post.
We recommend playing this team building activity with no more than 30 people. If in larger groups larger, divide your employees into small teams of equal sizes.
Give each participant a bingo card, either homemade or found on the internet, and a pen
Explain that the group has 30 minutes to mingle with each other. During this time, they should be introducing themselves to one and other and finding people who match the traits on the bingo card.
Once they have found the person with the correct trait, they must put the person’s name in the corresponding box, or have the person sign the appropriate square
Just like a normal game of bingo, the clock continues to tick until the first person to fill five boxes across or down yells “Bingo”.
If you want the game to go on for a little longer, you could have multiple opportunities to win. For example, the first person to get a full horizontal line of words, the first to get a vertical line and then the first to get a full house.
To involve employees even more in the game, perhaps ask them at the beginning what they think a completed game should be.
To make the game more exciting and motivating, have a prize (or prizes, if playing the longer game) ready to give the winners.
In our opinion, a bottle of nice wine will do but you could always offer gift vouchers.
One way to reflect at the end is to ask participants to introduce themselves and share an interesting trait they learned about someone else.
You can also get your employees or school students to describe how they feel now that they know their peers a little bit better.
For a sample printable bingo card, you can download and modify this People-Bingo printable template.
You don't even need to put in an email address to download it, and their privacy policy says you can edit it as much as you like.
Alternatively, you can take QuizBreaker for a spin which is arguably even more fun than ice breaker bingo!
It is super easy, all you need to do is invite your friends or colleagues to play and be sure to have your bingo board and pen ready.
We got you covered! Check-out our favorite icebreaker questions.
Bingo is traced back to 1530 and started off as an Italian lottery called 'Lo Giuoco del Lotto D'Italia' and still played every Saturday in Italy. In the United States Bingo was called 'beano'.
