Citizenship Bingo

Directions

 Before the meeting

1. Download and print Citizenship Bingo cards, one for each Cub Scout.

During the meeting

1. As each Cub Scout arrives at the den meeting, give them a bingo card and a marker, pencil, or pen.
2. Instruct Cub Scouts to move around the meeting space and interact with each other to find another Cub Scouts who matches the description on a bingo square. 
3. When they find someone who fits the description, the Cub Scouts signs or initials the corresponding square on the bingo card.
4. The goal is to complete a row, column, or diagonal of signed squares to get a bingo. Once a Cub Scout completes a bingo, they present their card to the den leader.

Tips:

• Encourage participants to engage in conversations beyond just getting a signature, so they have a chance to learn more about each other.
• Have some extra markers, pencils, or pens on hand in case someone loses theirs.
• Keep the atmosphere light and fun to create a comfortable environment for everyone to interact.

Remember, the main goal of this activity is to help den members break the ice and learn more about being a good citizen in an enjoyable way. It can be a fantastic way to start building a sense of community and friendship within the den.
