Step 1
5 boxes across and down
Create the template for the bingo card. Generally, bingo cards have five boxes across and five boxes down (B-I-N-G-O!). Leave room for signatures.
If you have a printer at hand, you can make the bingo card in Word. If not, you can draw the bingo card yourself. Make sure there's a bingo card for each player.

Step 2
Option 1: "Make it personal"
If you know the players, you can write 25 interesting traits on the bingo card, describing different aspects: e.g.: “plays the guitar”, “has run a marathon”, “has a twin brother”, “collects rare coins”, “has a piercing”,...

Step 3
Option 2: "Keep it casual"
If you don’t know the players, you can write general characteristics on the bingo card, e.g.: “needs coffee to wake up”, “loves the colour blue”, “has two cats", "loves singing in the shower", "has a sister",...
You can make these easy or difficult depending on how much time you want the game to take.
