Thanksgiving Invention Bingo Printable, 30 Unique Cards, Vintage Kitchen Patent Drawings, Family Game PDF

The icebox, the sad iron, the bread box and the clothes wringer: someone patented every one of them. Now they're on your bingo cards!

THANKSGIVING INVENTION BINGO is a printable bingo game made from 35 real U.S. patent drawings from 1858 to 1924: kitchen tools, laundry helpers and household gadgets.
