About Work From Home bingo

Work From Home Bingo captures the domestic side of a home-office day: “Pajama bottoms”, “Laundry break”, “Cat on the keyboard”, “Neighbor mows the lawn” and the satisfying “Log off on time”. It suits remote staff, freelancers and hybrid teams on their home days, and the squares can be played across a whole week without any meeting at all.

42 entries make up this Work From Home set. With 24 per card, any single one, Grocery delivery for example, appears on about 57% of the cards, so in a room of 30 players around 17 of them have it.

Play it like classic bingo: one person reads the 42 entries in the shuffled order of the caller sheet, everyone marks matching squares, and a full row, column or diagonal wins.

How to host Work From Home bingo

  1. Print the Work From Home cards

    Give each player one card; a free set prints up to 30, no two alike. Card 1 above starts with Print at home, Log off on time, Router restart, Kids home early and Two calls one room.

  2. Print the caller sheet

    All 42 entries appear on it in shuffled order, opening with Two calls one room, Stretch on the floor, Grocery delivery, Pajama bottoms and Laundry break; tick each one as you read it out.

  3. Give everyone the same week to play and compare cards on Friday, when squares like “Herbal tea” and “Afternoon walk” make easy conversation starters.

  4. Use a 3x3 grid for a single home day and a 5x5 grid for a full week, so rarer squares like “Router restart” have time to happen.

  5. Encourage healthy squares: managers can point out that “Stretch on the floor”, “Window view break” and “Log off on time” are habits worth repeating.

  6. Call until someone shouts bingo

    With 30 cards, expect the first line near call 12 (Sunlight glare in this set's order) and a blackout near call 38; check the winner's squares against your ticked list.
