Make learning letters fun with this free printable Alphabet Bingo game for kids! Perfect for preschoolers and younger kids, this game helps with recognizing letters in a different way!
Looking for a fun way to sneak a little learning in while playing with your young kids? My printable alphabet bingo is both fun and educational! Whether you’re working on letter recognition or just want something educational and screen-free to keep your littles busy, this printable bingo game is a great addition to your activity toolkit.
My kids loved this when they were preschool and early elementary age. It made practicing their ABCs feel like a game instead of a lesson—always a parenting win in my book. You can play it as a traditional bingo game or try one of the fun variations we’ve added below. Plus, it’s easy to prep with things you already have around the house!

How to Play Alphabet Bingo
- Print out a card for each player and hand out your chosen markers—these can be anything you have on hand, like coins, buttons, LEGO bricks, or cut-up pieces of paper.
- Choose a caller (that’s probably you, parents!) and draw letters one at a time from a bowl or bag.
- As each letter is called, kids look for it on their card and cover the matching square if they have it.
- The first player to get five letters in a row (across, down, or diagonally) shouts BINGO! and wins the game!
- You can also switch things up and play blackout style, where the winner is the first person to cover their entire card.
This is a great game for small groups, homeschool co-ops, or even just a quiet rainy day at home.
If you have a laminator (or some clear sheet protectors), this game becomes reusable! Have your kids use dry erase markers to mark off the letters as they play. When the game is over, you can just wipe them clean and use again. This is especially handy if you want to use alphabet bingo in the car or if your child has a hard time keeping physical markers on each letter.
Fun Variations + Learning Tips
Want a few ways to mix up playing alphabet bingo? I’ve got you covered:
- Letter Hunt Bingo: Instead of calling out letters, have your kiddo find them around the house or out on a walk. Spot the letter “S” on a cereal box? They can mark it off on their card!
- Road Trip Alphabet Bingo: Bring the game on the go! See letters on signs, license plates, or store names while driving and mark them off your card.
- Phonics Bingo: Instead of saying the letter name, say the letter sound. “Find the letter that says ‘sss’!”
