What is Animal Bingo?

Animal Bingo is a fun educational game often used with children to teach animal recognition, vocabulary, and matching skills. The game board (like the one shown) has a 5x5 grid with different animals in each square. One central square is labeled "FREE SPACE," which is typically marked automatically at the start of the game.

How to Play:

1. Prepare the Game:
- Each player gets a bingo card (like the one shown).
- A caller draws animal cards or shows images/words of animals.
- Players mark off squares on their card when they hear or see an animal that matches one on their board.

2. Winning:
- The first player to get five marked squares in a row (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally) calls out “Bingo!”
- The "FREE SPACE" counts as a marked square.
