Kindness Bingo Game
Objective: Foster empathy by encouraging acts of kindness and thoughtful behavior.
Materials:
• A simple Bingo card with squares labeled with kind acts (e.g., “Give a compliment,” “Help someone without being asked,” “Share your toy,” “Say thank you,” “Draw a picture for someone”)
• Markers or stickers
How to Play:
1. Create Your Bingo Card: Fill the grid with kind actions. Customize it with input from the child.
2. Kindness in Action: Throughout the day or week, the child completes the tasks and marks them off with stickers.
3. Bingo Time: When a row is complete (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal), celebrate with a fun reward—like a high-five, dance party, or small treat.
4. Reflection Round: After finishing, discuss:
– “How did it feel to be kind?”
– “Did you notice how others felt when you helped them?”
Rules:
• Acts must be genuine—no rushing just to win!
• Family members can join in, making it a group activity.
• Bonus points for “surprise kindness” (something not on the card).
Tips:
• Use real-life moments to inspire: “That was a Bingo-worthy act!”
• Create themed Bingo cards for holidays, school days, or family gatherings.
Emotional Growth:
Kids experience the joy of giving, recognize how their actions affect others, and build habits of empathy and kindness.
