Desiree Worrall-BelangerJun 27 2024

The United States recently celebrated National Bingo Day.To celebrate, I’m here with a fun bookish bingo card.. How many of these have you accomplished so far this month?

The history of Bingo

Ever wonder about the history of Bingo? Here's a bit from Wikipedia:"A game of chance named lotto was being played in Italy by about 1530. In the 18th century, a home version (called Tombola) was created in Naples with the addition of cards, tokens, and the calling out of numbers. In the nineteenth century, a game like this was widely played in Germany to teach children spelling, animal names, and multiplication tables."Feel free to share this on your social media and tag us @fable on Instagram :) You can also share your results on the Fable For You feed.
