It seems like my kids do a unit on China every couple of years in school. Since I spent 4 months teaching school in China during college, it's fun to get out all of my Chinese souvenirs to show my girls when they start studying China. (I spent way to much money on things I'll never need, so at least I have a reason to get them out once in a while!) I was in China from September to December, so I missed the Chinese New Year celebration. I wish I had been able to see it.
If I were in elementary school, I would enjoy playing this Chinese New Year bingo game as part of my China unit. If I were still a teacher, I'd enjoy having something fun to do with my unit that I didn't have to make myself. It's a win win!
How to Play:
Since this game is obviously different than traditional Bingo, here’s how it works: Cut the two pages of calling cards into individual cards and put them into a bag or hat. To play, pull a card out of the hat and call out what is on the card (or just show the card). Players look for that picture on their card and cover it up with a marker or jelly bean. Continue pulling cards from the bag one at a time until someone gets five in a row. (You cannot play blackout because every card has every picture on it. This game is meant to be played for traditional five-in-a-row bingo only.)

In China, when the Christmas decorations come down they are quickly replaced by Chinese New Year decorations, which include lanterns, cherry blossoms, and lots of red. Chinese New Year ushers in a new year represented by 1 of the 12 animals that make up the Chinese Zodiac.
Chinese New Year is celebrated on a different day each year according to the Chinese lunar calendar, although it always falls in either January or February. In 2016, Chinese New Year begins on February 8, and we will be welcoming in the Year of the Monkey.
To celebrate this holiday, I’m offering a Chinese New Year Bingo game featuring the 12 animals of the Chinese Zodiac.

My Chinese New Year Bingo game printable features a total of 10 different playing cards. Here is a sneak peak at the first six:

You can play blackout Bingo, four corners Bingo, or line Bingo with these cards.
No matter how you play, my Chinese New Year Bingo game provides a great opportunity to learn the 12 animals of the Chinese Zodiac while having lots of fun!
