Free Printable 40th Birthday Bingo Cards

Turning forty calls for a party that looks back as much as forward. Guests mark a square when they spot a moment or hear one of the lines people always say at a fortieth, and the first to fill a row shouts the birthday person's name instead of "bingo". The squares are affectionate, so nobody gets roasted about their age.

    How to play 40th birthday bingo

    1. Set the number of players, then press Print or save as PDF. Each player gets a different card.
    2. Call items in random order with the built-in caller, or use the printed call list.
    3. Players mark each called square. The first to complete a row, column or diagonal shouts "Bingo!"

    Tip: Swap two or three squares for songs, shows or fads from the years the guest of honor was in school, then put those songs on the playlist so the squares can actually be marked.

    Questions and answers

    Are the bingo cards really free?

    Yes. You can print up to 10 unique cards per game at no cost, as often as you like, without creating an account. The optional Unlimited Pass is for larger groups.

    How do I save the cards as a PDF?

    Press "Print or save as PDF". In the print window choose "Save as PDF" as the printer. On a phone, use the share or print option in the preview that opens.

    Is every card different?

    Yes. Each card is shuffled separately from your list, so players cannot all win at the same time. The more items your list has beyond the number of squares, the more the cards differ.

    Can I use my own words?

    Yes. Replace the list with your own words or phrases, one per line. A 5×5 card with a free space needs at least 24 items, a 4×4 card needs 16 and a 3×3 card needs 8.

    What paper should I use?

    Normal printer paper works. Card stock lasts longer if you plan to reuse the cards. The layout fits both US Letter and A4.
