Free Printable Activity Sheet – Fourth of July Bingo for Family Fun

June 26, 2019 by Sarah White Leave a Comment

If you’re looking for activities to do with your kids for the Fourth of July, check out this free printable Fourth of July bingo game from One Creative Mommy.

If you’re on the hunt for fun and easy Fourth of July activities for kids, you’ll love this free printable Fourth of July Bingo game from One Creative Mommy. It’s a simple way to keep kids entertained while the grown-ups are prepping the BBQ, setting up lawn chairs, or waiting for the fireworks to start.

The bingo boards are full of festive, summery images—think flip flops, sparklers, ice cream cones, flags, firecrackers, and stars. My favorite little detail? The clever “Land of the Free” free space in the middle. It’s such a patriotic touch that makes this printable feel extra special.

You can play it the traditional way with markers or buttons, but if you want to make it more holiday-themed, let the kids use red, white, and blue candies (like M&Ms or Skittles). Instant snacks and game pieces in one—just keep an eye on the little ones who might eat their “markers” before they win a round!

This game works perfectly for:

Backyard BBQs and family picnics
Classroom end-of-year parties
Neighborhood block parties
Or just a quiet rainy-day activity leading up to the Fourth

The best part? It’s free to download and print. No fancy supplies required—just a printer and a little holiday spirit.

Head over to One Creative Mommy’s blog to grab your free download and print as many boards as you need.

Easy Pen and Paper Games for Road Trips and Beyond

When my daughter was younger I would spend a lot of time trying to come up with activities she could do in the car on long road trips and things to entertain her when we were waiting at restaurants and things that didn’t involve screens.

But it turns out there are a lot of great activities you can do with just a piece of paper and a pen.

What Do We Do All Day has a great collection of pen and paper games, including some that can be done with just one person, though they’re all more fun if you have at least two.

There are some classics on here like hangman and dots and boxes, but there are also quite a few I hadn’t heard of before.

I don’t want to spoil the whole list for you because you should definitely click over there and look around, but I will share about the one that you see pictured above.

This game is called Bridges, and you start by making the big random shape and the dividing it into a bunch of sections (the post says 30-50 sections is ideal but I think this one is smaller than that).

Each player gets their own color marker and you take turns drawing bridges from one space to another, crossing a third. Once there’s a bridge, no other bridges can start, end or cross in those spaces. Keep going until no more bridges can be built, and the person who makes the last bridge wins.

Check out the post over at What We Do All Day for more great ideas for no or almost-no prep games you can play with your kids or that kids can play together. I’d love to know if you have a favorite paper and pen game, whether it’s on this list or a different one.
