A summer bingo board played over weeks, with no caller

Each person owns a card and marks a square after doing the thing, with the date written in the corner. Over ten weeks, a full card is two or three squares a week, and one line takes four or five.

Fit the list to your summer

Finish editing before anyone marks a square, because a change redeals the cards. Select a line that cannot happen this year, no lake nearby, no county fair, and type over it: the town pool, the ice cream stand on the way home. For a rainy week, pick Read, make and rainy days in Ready-made list; its 21 squares deal 4 × 4 cards.

Questions and answers

How many cards can I print for a block party?

Up to 60, no two alike: set How many cards to one per person. This free summer bingo printable needs no sign-up, and most of the 102 activities cost nothing too. Type over the fair and mini golf if the budget says so.

Can we keep the game on a phone all summer?

You can, with a caution. Marks are saved in that browser, and your last set reopens with them on the next visit. New set of 4 cards clears them, and so does clearing the browser's data. Over ten weeks, paper is safer.

Which squares need an adult?

The water and fire ones. An adult watches any swim, children wear a life jacket in a lake, a river or the sea, and an adult tends the fire under Toast a marshmallow. The rest suits a household, from giant bubbles to a jigsaw.

How this list was compiled: Own work: an original list of summer activities written for this site, each one a thing to do and mark off over the weeks of a school break, not a thing to spot. It has no brand names (ice pops, flying disc, mini golf, shaved ice), no alcohol and nothing that needs special equipment beyond a tent or a fishing rod. Clue lines are our what-counts rules, except three facts checked on Wikipedia on 2026-09-19: the Perseid meteor shower peaks between 9 and 14 August each year (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perseids); fireflies are beetles that emit light mainly at twilight to attract mates (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefly); and in the Northern Hemisphere the summer solstice, the day that has the most daylight, falls on June 20 or 21 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summer_solstice). No date for a single year is given. Safety lines were checked on 2026-09-19: the US National Weather Service lightning tips (https://www.weather.gov/safety/lightning-tips: move to safe shelter when you hear thunder, stay off porches, wait at least 30 minutes after the last thunder), which is why the storm square is an indoor one; the CDC drowning prevention page (https://www.cdc.gov/drowning/prevention/index.html: children wear life jackets for all activities in and around natural water, and a responsible adult supervises closely whenever children are in or near water); and the CDC choking hazards page (https://www.cdc.gov/infant-toddler-nutrition/foods-and-drinks/choking-hazards.html: uncut grapes). The two how-to lines (ice pops, ice cream in a bag) describe common kitchen methods in our own words. Licence: own work
