Make your
next bingo game even more fun by giving away gag gifts to winners. Select your gag gifts based on players' tastes and the game ambiance--don't offend anyone in the group. Create homemade "inside joke" gag gifts or purchase funny items from the dollar store or a gag gift store such as Spencer's Gifts. Keep gifts within a reasonable price range since they are being given just for fun.
"Over the Hill" Bingo Birthday
If bingo is the game of choice during an "over the hill" party, give away "old fart" type gag gifts. Whenever someone shouts, "Bingo," hand them a pack of adult diapers, prune juice, hemorrhoid cream or a set of pretend false teeth. Another funny idea is to give away magnifying eyeglasses that you can purchase at most drug stores.
Make the game a little more interesting and create special over-the-hill bingo cards. Design the cards on black paper to resemble a tombstone and write your numbers using silver or white pen. Use Tums for bingo markers.
Silly Gag Gifts
Give hilarious gag gifts just to incite a giggle from the group. Select funny gifts that would make nearly anyone laugh, such as a Whoopee cushion, fake poop or toilet paper containing funny quotes.
Set the scene for gag gift bingo and place Whoopee cushions on unsuspecting players' seats, hire a local standup comedian to call your bingo game and have players sign their bingo card with disappearing ink. Be sure you have enough real ink pens on hand to pass out to players when they realize that they can't fill out their cards.
Gag Gifts for Kids' Bingo
Bingo is a popular game at birthday parties, and many teachers use bingo as a learning aid. Select age- and classroom-appropriate gag gifts--most kids find fake poop and Whoopee cushions to be hilarious.
Give away items such as a Magic 8 Ball or a water-squirting flower as a gag gift for your classroom bingo game. Disappearing ink pens are also popular with elementary aged kids, along with sour or foul tasting trick gum or candy.
Make your bingo game extra fun by giving kids humorous exercises to do during the game. Set rules beforehand so the kids know what to do. For example, if you call out the number 5, the kids would have to do five jumping jacks or hop on one foot as fast as they can, then mark their card.
