About Find Someone Who bingo
Find Someone Who Bingo, also called human bingo, fills each square with a short prompt such as “Has lived on a farm”, “Knows sign language”, “Can juggle” or “Was born abroad”. Players walk the room, find a person who matches, and collect their signature in that square. It suits first meetings, classrooms, workshops and mixed-age family gatherings.
This Find Someone Who list is 41 prompts long and a 5x5 card with a free center takes 24, which leaves 17 off each card. That is why one entry (“Plays an instrument”, say) appears on about 18 of 30 cards: card 1, for instance, has no “Has a pet dog” or “Was born abroad”.
There is no caller: players walk around, find a person who fits a square (“Can do a cartwheel”, say) and write that person's name in it, one square per person. The first player with a complete line of 5 squares (4 on a line through the free center) wins.

How to play Find Someone Who bingo
-
Hand out cards and pens
Give each player one card; a free set prints up to 30, no two alike. Card 1 above starts with “Visited 3 continents”, “Is an only child”, “Has run a race”, “Has acted in a play” and “Plays an instrument”.
-
Walk the room and collect names
Players find a person who fits a square, such as “Can do a cartwheel” or “Has acted in a play”, and write that name in it. Allow one square per person, so a line means talking to 4 or 5 different people.
-
Allow each person to sign a card only once, so players must meet several people instead of collecting every square from one friend who “Plays an instrument”.
-
Ask winners to introduce the people on their row, for example the colleague who “Has climbed a mountain”, so the whole room learns something new.
-
For virtual groups, read each prompt aloud and let people unmute or raise a hand when “Has a pet dog” or “Bakes bread” fits them.
-
Check the names
The first player with a complete line reads out the names in it; check that no name appears twice. A full card means meeting 24 different people, “Visited 3 continents” to “Has slept in a tent” on card 1.
