Easiest is to just go buy a small bingo game, I have seen them for $2 at the dollar store, and most big stores would have them in the toy section (but may cost more for better/more durable ones…)
There are places online to print the cards, but you still need a way to draw the numbers.

How to make
first you need to get paper (pretty obvious) and fold it however many times you need or you can just draw lines with a ruler. Next what works really well is to have a small board or sheets of paper telling what to put on boards (like numbers, shapes, etc), put BINGO on the top and draw a line seperating them from the rest and the guest and you could fill your own boards or you could just have a couple of friends come over and help you make each board different. Hint is to put less squares and more “items”. Then you could just make flashcards each having the a different item. Decorate one card and one flashcard but don’t put any numbers/shapes/etc on them, copy them in a color “printer” when your satisfied. Stickers work really well because they are all the same (if your going to do stickers then i suggest you get a basket so guest can do or you can do all) or you/guests can draw them in. Remember to buy or make things to keep track of which things you called. This final step is only available when you are doing the whole thing, laminate the boards/cards so it look nice.
How to play:
Playing this game is easy. All you need to do is get someone/yourself to draw the cards you made earlier. If you don’t want to make cards then you can just buy a bingo machine and if you don’t want to make the boards you can buy those as well. The things used to keep track don’t have to be fancy (unless you want it to be) they sell those too.
You/someone calls the number/thing/shape/etc and the first person to get four in a row win, when they reach the goal the people yell bingo. Now the orginal way only uses numbers. You call B for the first line and then whatever number on the flashcard.
Different variations:
Four corners: get the four corners
Robin’s nest: get the outer boundary of the board
Blackout: cover the whole board
I hope this helps have fun!
