\"seniorsSince every season is bingo season at a nursing home or assisted living facility, be sure that you have all the needed bingo equipment to help your bingo games run smoothly year round. Consider using these 5 accessories for your next bingo game:<\/p>\n

1. Large-Print Bingo Cards<\/strong><\/p>\n

Help your residents become more independent while playing bingo by providing them with large-print bingo cards<\/a><\/strong> that they can easily mark without assistance.<\/p>\n

2. Bingo Calling Board<\/strong><\/p>\n

Eliminate the need to stop in the middle of a bingo game to repeat what was called for your late-arriving players by using a bingo calling board<\/a><\/strong>. Simply attach the board to a wall, and use the static cling markers to cover the bingo numbers that have already been called.<\/p>\n

3. Bingo Calling Cards<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do you have residents who would like to play bingo when you or your staff are not around? Then train a few of your residents to use bingo calling cards<\/strong><\/a> to call the games, where they only have to shuffle the deck and flip a card to reveal the bingo number.<\/p>\n

4. Lucky Bingo Cups<\/strong><\/p>\n

Add a bit of fun to one of your weekly bingo games by hosting a drink night, like a Virgin Daiquiri Bingo Night or a Fruity Punch Bingo Night, where you serve the drinks in lucky bingo cups<\/strong><\/a>. Collect the cups at the end of the activity to wash and reuse for the following week where you feature a different drink.<\/p>\n

5. Large Bingo Chips<\/strong><\/p>\n

Provide residents with large bingo chips<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0to make it easy for residents to pick up and place on their bingo cards. Use the red chips so that residents clearly see what numbers they still need for a bingo.<\/p>\n
