Help your Year 1 child recognise and describe 2D and 3D shapes through a fun bingo game.
Shape Bingo is a playful game that moves beyond simply naming shapes and encourages children to think about the properties that define them. As they match shape names or clues about sides, corners, faces and curved surfaces to their bingo boards, they'll practise recognising common 2D and 3D shapes and explaining how they know.
Simple to set up and easy to adapt, you'll receive a parent-friendly guide with clear instructions, practical learning tips and ideas to extend the play as your child's confidence grows. You'll also receive printable bingo boards and calling cards, with options to play using shape names or shape properties as your child's confidence grows.
