Free Printable Gratitude Bingo Cards
A November classroom favorite that also works at the family table. Some squares are actions, such as thanking the bus driver; the rest are prompts to answer aloud in morning meeting or in a journal, and a student marks each one once it is done. Every card has the same squares in a different arrangement, and the goal is five in a row by the end of the week.
How to play gratitude bingo
- Set the number of players, then press Print or save as PDF. Each player gets a different card.
- Call items in random order with the built-in caller, or use the printed call list.
- Players mark each called square. The first to complete a row, column or diagonal shouts "Bingo!"
Tip: Younger students can draw their answer in the square instead of writing it. Choose one prompt a day to discuss as a class, and leave the action squares, such as thanking a staff member, for students to finish on their own.

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.
