Pick and Draw {BINGO}

This page may contain affiliate and/or advertiser links. Please review my disclosure policy. 

When we first got our Pick and Draw cards, my kids drew so much that I am certain that we used up a tree’s worth of paper with all of our fun cartoon character creations! {grins} It was great to see how the kids could come up with characters that looked so different, all while using the same basic facial features! {Check out my Pick and Draw review for more details about our experience with the game!} However, we made so many faces that I needed to come up with some way to conserve some of our paper! At first we just used a white board and dry erase marker. But, the kids didn’t really like having to “wipe away” their creations. So, I came up with the idea of drawing multiple faces per page using a 3×3 grid. Our grid soon turned into a gameboard!

I contacted Rich Davis (the Pick and Draw creator) about my idea and we worked together to come up with a new way to play Pick and Draw…

Pick and Draw BINGO!!!

Directions for Pick and Draw BINGO:

1. Using the Pick and Draw game, draw a different cartoon face in all 9 boxes on the Pick and Draw BINGO board.  Each card may be used only once.
2. Shuffle the deck and select the top card.  Find that facial feature on one of the 9 faces drawn and put a “counter” of some kind in that box (m&m’s make yummy counters and everyone gets something at the end!)
3. Continue turning over cards one by one. Winner is the first to put a counter in all 9 boxes and yell, “BINGO!” Only 1 counter per box.

The kids LOVE Pick and Draw BINGO and so do I! We have played it many times and it continues to be a favorite! {While it takes us about 20 minutes to get all of our faces drawn, it only takes about 5 minutes to actually play the BINGO part!}

Pick and Draw BINGO is a “sneaky” way of helping improve the kid’s visual observation skills! It can be played with as few as two people or as many as you would like! Not only is it fun for families to play together, but it could be used as a great ice breaker activity at work, a creative group art activity at school or a fun game for birthday parties!
