Birthday Bingo Printable with Two Picture Cards and Calling Tiles
If everyone receives the same bingo board, everyone can finish the same line at once. This small party set gives two players, or two teams, different picture layouts and a matching pool of calling tiles. An adult can show each picture as it is called, so reading every label is not necessary.
Download Card A, Card B, and the calling sheet below. Each board has nine spaces and no free square; the calling sheet includes all twelve pictures used across the set. Click any preview to open the full size image, or use its download button to open the image in a new tab and save it.
Print a different board for each player
Use Card A for one player and Card B for the other. For a birthday classroom celebration, divide the group into two teams and give each team one board to discuss together. This download contains two unique birthday game cards, so printing extra copies does not create additional unique layouts.

Cut out the calling pictures
The calling sheet has twelve tiles in a grid of three columns and four rows. An adult should cut along the tile borders, fold the tiles with the pictures inside, and mix them in a bowl. Keep this bowl beside the caller, separate from the boards, so no one selects a picture because it would complete their line.

Play until someone completes three spaces
Draw one tile, say its label, and show the picture to both players before setting it aside face up. A player marks that picture only if it appears on their board. Use a pencil or crayon to make a small mark in the cell, especially when loose counters would be unsuitable for the children taking part.
Three marked spaces in one straight line win: across, down, or diagonally. Ask the player to name or point to the three pictures, then compare them with the tiles already called. If both players complete a line on the same call, celebrate a shared win; different boards reduce identical outcomes but cannot eliminate ties. Mix all twelve tiles again before starting another round.
Check the pictures before the first round
The calling pool contains Cake, Balloon, Gift, Party hat, Candle, Cupcake, Star, Ice cream, Bow, Cookie, Party horn, and Confetti. The cake is a whole birthday cake, while the cupcake is an individual cake in a wrapper. Point out the separate candle and the ribbon bow before playing so children know which picture each word means.
For a practice round, call Cake, Balloon, and Gift. Card A should have its top row marked, while Card B should not yet have a winning line. There is no separate puzzle answer key because the winner depends on the shuffled calling order; the calling sheet is your check for every claimed match.
Keep the print large enough to see
Print in portrait orientation and choose the setting that fits the entire image inside the page without cropping. The artwork has a vertical 2:3 shape, so standard Letter or A4 paper will show spare margins. Test one page first and check that every picture label and outer cell border is visible.
Color helps distinguish the drawings, but the labels and different silhouettes also support grayscale printing. Keep the boards close to full page size for young players rather than squeezing several onto one sheet. For a short birthday party entertainment break, one caller and two clear boards are enough; save the remaining printable party games for another part of the celebration.
