Each player receives a bingo card with different recyclable items, such as paper, plastic bottles, aluminum cans, and glass jars. Picture cards are also included that can be shown to children during the game. As they spot these items, they mark them on their card. The first player to complete a full card wins. A matching game can also be used where children have to match the picture card on their bingo card.
