LOVEU Bingo

Why

Bingo is a game of chance, just like love. Make and play this colorful good-luck game with friends (but don’t play with their hearts).


Steps

1. Cut several game cards from white construction paper or recycled cardboard with Crayola Scissors. Mark six rows on each card using Crayola Twistables® and a ruler. Then mark five columns to form a grid of squares.

2. Write LOVEU in capital letters across the top row, one letter at the top of each column. Draw Valentine messages and symbols in each of the 25 empty squares. Write a list of all the symbols and messages you used for the Bingo caller.

3. Form small hearts or other Bingo tokens with Crayola Model Magic®. Make sure the tokens fit inside the card squares! Make enough for every player to cover their card completely. Air-dry the tokens over night.

4. To play Bingo: Agree on rules of play. Caller announces a letter from L-O-V-E-U and a symbol or message (for example: O-Kiss or U-Candy or L-Miss You).

Safety Guidelines

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.

Crayola Modeling Materials including Crayola Model Magic®, and Model Magic Fusion™, Crayola Air-Dry Clay, and Crayola Dough—

  • Keep away from open flames. Do not use to make candleholders, hot plates, trivets, or other similar objects that will be used or placed near fire and other heat sources.
  • Do not put in an oven, microwave, or kiln.
  • Do not make into vessels/containers that will hold unpackaged food.
  • The use of modeling material to make items that look like food is discouraged for children younger than age 5 to avoid their confusion with real food.
  • Unless sealed with a water-resistant glaze, do not make projects exposed to or immersed in water, such as boats or outdoor bird feeders. They would disintegrate when exposed to moisture.
  • Crayola Dough—contains gluten (wheat flour) as an ingredient.
  • Crayola Air-Dry Clay, Crayola Model Magic and Model Magic Fusion are gluten-free. However, they are produced on the same machinery as Crayola Dough which does contain gluten. Although the machines are cleaned prior to the start of each production run, there is a slight possibility that trace amounts of gluten from Crayola Dough may be present in the other modeling compound products. For information regarding specific ingredients or allergic concerns, please call our Consumer Affairs department at 1-800-272-9652 weekdays between 9 AM and 4 PM Eastern Standard Time.

Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
