Hanukkah Bingo: free printable cards

Printable Hanukkah bingo cards with menorahs, dreidels, latkes and the eight nights.

Hanukkah bingo is a simple game for family gatherings, religious school classrooms and community celebrations during the eight nights. The squares cover the menorah, foods, games and traditions of the holiday, so younger players learn the words while they play.

Play a round after lighting the candles, or use it at a party alongside a dreidel game. Gelt makes a natural prize.

Printing tips

• For a group of up to 30 you can print everything free. Choose 2 cards per page for a standard size, or 4 per page to save paper.
• Turn on the call sheet. It lists every square in a random order with a checkbox, so the caller never repeats one.
• Add a few more squares than the 24 a card needs. The more entries, the more the cards differ.
• Pick “Save as PDF” in the print dialog if you want to email the cards or print them later.
