Space Bingo Cards

How to play space bingo

1. Give each player a card and something to mark squares with.
2. The caller reads words from the caller's list in any order, ticking each one off.
3. Players mark a word when it's called. The middle square is free.
4. The first to complete a row, column or diagonal shouts "Bingo!" and the caller checks the card.

Before you call a word, give a clue or a fact about it and let players guess. It turns a game of luck into a quick review.

Good to know

• The International Space Station circles Earth roughly every 90 minutes, so astronauts aboard see about 16 sunrises a day.
• Olympus Mons on Mars is the tallest known volcano in the solar system, nearly three times the height of Mount Everest.
