Banner Bingo.jpg
It has become a tradition to make travel bingo cards for each other to play on holiday. The idea is to mark things off as we see them, earning prizes for straight lines, diagonals, T-shapes, and full blackouts (never yet achieved). In fact, we have recently started our own business, Been-Go.com, where people can make their own fun travel bingo cards just like ours. The photos below are things that were on this summer's bingo cards. Click HERE to see other bingo cards ideas from the past.
