Baby Bingo and how to entertain a toddler for 4 hours

Today, Tee and I had fun making our own Bingo game and had even more fun playing Bingo.

How to make Baby Bingo – lots of cardboard, colour pencils and scissors. Make 2 base cards or however many, depending on however many players want to play. Divide it into written numbers. For younger children, up to number 5 or 10, for older children up to 50. We did up to 20. She can count to 30 (missing 16-19) but Mummy was too lazy to make SO many Bingo cards so 20 was sufficient. Then make even more numbers on cardboard and cut out to match the Bingo base cards.

There are several ways to play the game but the objective of the game is to cover your base card completely and whoever covers it with individual cards first wins.

Bingo 1 – A Bingo Master will pick a card and call out the number. Players will quickly check their base card if they have the number or not. If they do, the first one who shouts BINGO gets to keep the card and cover his base card. Keep going till the first person completely covers his base card. For us, whenever Tee completely covered her base card, she would jump up and shout “Bingo, Bingo, Bingo!!!” to confirm her win and then I would shake her hand and congratulate her (so she learnt the word, congratulations) and then she takes a bow and we clap. 🙂

Bingo 2 – Put the little numbered cards into a plastic bag and each player takes turns to pick out a card. If they have the same number on their base card, they keep the number and cover their base card. If they don’t have the number, they have to put the card back and it’s the next player’s turn. Keep going till the first person finishes covering their base card. The first person to finish covering their base card completely gets to shout BINGO!

Bingo 3 – just play however you like and have fun! It teaches kids how to recognise numbers and match them as well. Plus they get to shout BINGO. Now, how can that NOT be fun!!!?

Enjoy!

She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.

Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.

She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.

A beautiful life without limits.

If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.

Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.

Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
Show your support and spread the love!
