Bird Bingo (Magma for Laurence King)

Product Information

This fun and interactive spring birds bingo game is perfect for spring activities, Easter activities, or to get involved with the Big Birdwatch events! They are good for developing fast reactions, memorizing pictures and words, and all the social aspects that can be learned while playing any board game (following rules, taking turns, winning and losing gracefully). There are some of these familiar backyard birds in this part of the game, but there are also kakapo, the flightless parrot owls of New Zealand, or grey crowned cranes, the dancers of Africa. In this blog, we’ll introduce you to the Merlin Bird ID app and walk you through how to make your own bird bingo game with common local birds.

We discovered a nest in a bush near our front porch with baby birds in it and my kids marveled at them taking flight for the first time. I primarily utilize Charlotte Mason's philosophies and I am excited to see some resources for some of our favorite books, which is why I joined.

As you will see, when looking through the game, there are three distinct types of cards—type 1 features both the picture of the bird and its name, type 2 features only the pictures, and type 3 features only the name. You can choose whichever combination of cards suits your needs and thus modify the level of game complexity. We’ve designed five printable game cards, each with nine different bird species which are commonly seen in gardens across the UK. We've also included a lines version, where the first player to complete a line gets bingo, or the first player to complete the 'u' shape gets bingo. With very young children you can point out different colors, shapes, and patterns found within each image.Any of them can be used either as bingo cards (by printing one per player) or as tokens (by cutting the card). Bird Bingo brings a fun and educational twist to the traditional game as players learn the names and colourings of both their favourite species and weird and wonderful exotic birds.
