Summertime Bingo

Love these first few days of summer. The spring was exhausting, and finally, all sports and clubs and school year-end activities have also exhausted themselves. Now’s the time to collapse into a pile: sticky with sweat and sweet with ice cream. I always think of the beginning of July as a time for pastel colours.

Or maybe I’m just a little loopy: I’ve been on a mini writing retreat, and I just wrote 100 000 words over the past few days. Nanowrimo, eat your heart out; now I need a nap.

Whether you’re thinking: bring on the summer; or what the heck am I going to do this summer, I’ve got you covered with this summer cheat sheet: Summertime Bingo (Bingo d’été).

My kids love filling this out and we came up with a list of prizes for finishing different parts of the board. Our prize list goes something like this:

First line finished: A sticker
X finished: a slurpee or treat from the corner store
Outline finished: An ice cream
Board finished: A brand new book!

Feel free to follow our treats, or make up your own. Also, there’s no reason only kids can follow summertime bingo. Put in your own favourite rewards and get going: mine include new lip gloss and a massage, but also ice cream and a new book, because why should kids get all the fun? Click on the downloads below:
