Car Bingo Game
In the car, it might be a great idea to grab some little magnets and have the kiddies do the game on something magnetic (like a small cookie sheet) and use the magnets to mark so that it doesn’t slide. Or if you don’t mind printing plenty of copies, just let them mark the things they see in crayon or a pen. The Purple Cow Animal Bingo Game - Car Games, Airplane Games and Quiet Games. 4.0 out of 5 stars 275. Get it as soon as Thu, Feb 25. The escond way of playing car trip bingo is to simply try to find every single bingo item on the page. The first person to find everything on there page wins. My personal favorite way to play car trip bingo is to make it a two level game. So with each bingo page you can play method 1 followed by method 2 so it's 2 games.
Tired of those long road trips with nothing to do, keep your kids engaged with Car Bingo. This is a great way for the family to enjoy their trips. It takes the original board game of bingo.

For many years, Indiana’s SHIP/MIPPA outreach staff have held Medicare bingo games to educate Medicare beneficiaries on the basics of Medicare and subsidies that help pay for it. Prior to COVID-19, games were held in community gathering spots such as town halls, local restaurants, libraries. With the advent of COVID-19 and the associated physical distancing requirements, the outreach staff and a volunteer counselor recognized that if outreach and education events were to continue, they needed to get creative. Thus, Parking Lot Medicare Bingo was born.
Event preparation
The second parking lot bingo event (the first was done by a SHIP volunteer counselor at her Senior Center site upon request of the seniors) was held in the parking lot of a SHIP/MIPPA enrollment center. Since clients are no longer being seen at the center except for food pantry pick-ups, the parking lot had plenty of spots available for an event.
Participants parked in designated spots as directed by SHIP staff. Participants had the option to remain in their cars or sit on lawn chairs outside of their vehicle. Staff borrowed a karaoke machine to act as a sound system, which was plugged in inside the building using a very long extension cord.
Getting the word out
As with any event, the staff needed to promote and plan. Information on Parking Lot Bingo was published in the agency’s monthly newsletter and posted on the online SHIP events calendar. In addition, the site promoted the event on their Facebook page, and the event was advertised and “talked up” during a weekly Tuesday morning radio show hosted by the site’s Executive Director. There was no rain date, nor did the SHIP know if anyone would show up to play. They didn’t request reservations but had supplies for a crowd.

What happened during the event
The weather was perfect and nine participants showed up for the inaugural Parking Lot Bingo, which was not bad considering there was no free food!
Staff complied with the safety measures required by the Center, e.g., using masks, hand sanitizer and wipes, performing temperature checks, and practicing social distancing.
Staff directed the cars to face in the same direction and gather close enough together to ensure everyone could hear the numbers and information called out and allow the staff to stay stationary by the Karaoke machine. Medicare bingo under normal circumstances allows staff to walk around the room and ask questions, then hand out small promo products to those who participate. With Parking Lot Bingo, goodies were intermittently handed out to everyone. Participants yelled out answers to questions and honked their car horns when they “BINGOed”.

For this Parking Lot Bingo, everyone was a winner. The SHIP staff also decided, at the last minute, to play a hybrid version instead of Medicare bingo, where they interspersed Medicare facts with bingo numbers and, of course, offered to help people with benefits applications after the game.
Looking ahead
It was clear that participants enjoyed the activity, and many commented on how great it was to get out and do something fun. The group was excited to hear about future Bingo in the Park or Lawn Chair Bingo or possibly an ice cream social once social distancing requirements are relaxed.
