Everyone loves B-I-N-G-O!  Now, there’s G-H-O-S-T!

What you will need:

  • Orange poster board or other heavy paper
  • Inexpensive Bingo game – around 5 or 6 dollars at a discount store
  • Black marker, scissors and a ruler
  • Candy Corn

Preparation:

  • Cut out as many Bingo cards as you will need from the orange paper.
  • Use the black marker and ruler to draw the grids and numbers on each card.  Use the store bought Bingo cards as a guide.
  • Instead of BINGO at the top, print GHOST
  • Draw a ghost or use a Halloween Sticker for the Free Space

How to play:

  • Call the game using the balls from the BINGO game that you bought, but substitute the GHOST letters for the BINGO letters.
  • The children use Candy Corn to mark their GHOST cards
  • When a child gets a BINGO (GHOST), they yell “Boo!”

Just like in regular BINGO, award prizes for 5 spaces in a row, across, down or diagonal.

Variations:

  • Award a prize for a GHOST-age Stamp – a piece of Candy Corn in all four spaces in one of the corners
  • Award a prize for Bury The Ghost – covering ALL the squares with a Candy Corn
