What kid wouldn’t love to play Halloween Bingo?
Whether you are a teacher, daycare provider, or a parent, holidays are a great time to incorporate learning.
Kids get excited to celebrate special holidays, so cash in on their excitement and sneak in some fun learning!
If you are new here you may not know that I used to work in a private daycare.
Creating learning lessons was one of the many jobs I did while I worked there.
As a parent, I have also incorporated learning activities during the holidays (and year-round) for my own children.
While my older two attended daycare, Bella didn’t since I work from home I didn’t want to spend money on daycare.
Over the 3 years prior to her going to school, I created tons of learning activities for her.
I am still creating them even though she is in school, partially for her to continue learning at home and to share with you too!
Sight Words Halloween Bingo
One way to help your little one learn to read is through learning sight words.
They are words that commonly appear when reading, so it is key to practice them at home!
Of course, many kids don’t want to sit down and just read cards, so incorporating it in a fun way, like this Halloween bingo, that doesn’t seem like learning is key.
You can download the package below, print, and then laminate for your home, class or child’s class too!

To Play:

What’s In The Package
I created this sight words Halloween bingo with classrooms and daycares in mind.
While there are 25 different cards for classroom use, you don’t have to print them all if you are just using this at home.
The package has 25 unique bingo cards.
It also comes with 60 sight word cards.
These are what you will pull and call out for the kids to match!
Last but not least it comes with a sheet of 25 pumpkins to use as the markers.
You will need to print off one sheet of pumpkins per bingo sheet.
If you don’t want to use the pumpkins you can always use plastic bingo markers.
