Bingo is not only fun, but it also provides a range of cognitive, social & physical benefits for children. Ages 6-11. Children under 8 must be accompanied by an adult. **
**Tickets are available at the Children's Services Desk 30 minutes before the start of the program.
Children develop critical thinking skills as they strategize which squares to mark on their bingo cards based on the called items. They also practice problem-solving when determining potential winning combinations.
Bingo encourages social interaction and communication skills as children interact with their peers.
Playing bingo requires children to listen attentively to the called items and scan their bingo cards quickly to identify matches. This helps improve their concentration and focus, valuable skills for academic success and everyday tasks.
Marking the squares on a bingo card with a marker or token helps children develop and refine their fine motor skills, which are essential for tasks like writing, drawing, and manipulating objects.
