Have fun with words and fill in your beehive with this twist on bingo from the Scripps National Spelling Bee, for players age seven and up.Do you have what it takes to win the spelling bee? Then get ready to compete in Scripps National Spelling Bee Bingo, a game that combines luck and skill for endless fun.Each card contains a word and asks players to correctly spell it, define it, name its origin or part of speech, find its correct synonym, and use it in a sentence. Spaces on the bingo boards match up to questions like “spell,” “define,” “synonym,” and more. If you get a question right, you cover up the corresponding space on your bingo board. Get five in a row, column, or diagonal and you’ve won the game.Once you've mastered standard bingo, you can change things up with the dozen variations included in the rule book. Up the competitiveness with Oh, I'm so sorry where instead of taking a token from the pool, you can choose to take it from another player instead. Play simultaneously with All for one and one for all, where every player attempts to answer every question. Or go for a cooperative game in Teamwork where you work together with other players to make a five in a row.The 300 questions are divided into easy words (like geometry and molecule) and hard words (like magniloquent and pulchritude) so each player can choose the level that works for them. Every word included in the game comes from the official Scripps word list.With ten beehive-shaped bingo boards, 80 hexagon tokens, 150 double-sided calling cards, and multiple fun variations, up to ten players can enjoy this fast-paced game as they try to spell, define, and use words in a sentence to fill up their board. The compact size makes Scripps National Spelling Bee Bingo easy to pack for a fun adventure and the perfect addition to any family game night.
