Hey there, bird nerds (or soon-to-be bird nerds)!
If you’ve got a kiddo who’s more into screen time than fresh air, I have just the thing to lure them outside (and, no, it’s not a Pokémon Go update). Meet Backyard Bird Bingo! This free printable game is perfect for turning a lazy afternoon into an adventure filled with chirps, tweets, and a lot of giggles.
Here’s the deal: kids grab a bingo card, head outside (or just to the window—because lazy mornings exist), and start spotting common backyard birds. Each card has a mix of birds they might see, like robins, blue jays, or sparrows. They mark their sightings, and bam—Bingo! It’s like nature gave us its very own treasure hunt.
The best part? You don’t need to be an ornithologist (fancy word for bird nerd). The cards include colorful images to help kids recognize each feathered friend. And if you’re secretly Googling “what’s the difference between a crow and a raven,” don’t worry—I’ve been there.
Ready to create some fun, screen-free memories? Download the free Bird Bingo PDF, grab some binoculars (optional but makes you look super serious), and see how many birds you and your kid can find together. Spoiler alert: the real win is the time spent together.
