(More customer reviews)Que Pasa? Lotteria, that's what...
This is a Mexican Bingo game. The caller has a deck of cards that he or she uses to call the spaces. The players each have their own picture card and when they hear the name of a space on their card they cover it with a bean. The caller first says the name and then flashes the card so that people who are unfamiliar with the Spanish words can glance at the picture. The caller tries to go fairly quickly to keep the game lively, and there is no repeating. The first player to get a bingo (lotteria) yells, LOTTERIA!!! After someone has gotten a lotteria you can have everyone keep their beans on their cards and the next bingo will be the first person to get all four corners. After that winner, you can go on to a blackout.
We played this game after a Mexican dinner that I hosted and we had so much fun with it. We played it by making everyone ante a dime to the pot for each game that we played. The winner of each lotteria got the dimes in the pot. At the end of the game everyone counted their winnings (dimes) and were awarded first, second, and third place prizes (items that I picked up at our local Mexican grocery store).
It is a great game for learning Spanish words and would be a MUY FANTASTICO game for an elementary classroom teacher to use with her students as a fun way to review some of the Spanish words they are learning.
One of the ways it is played in Mexico is that instead of the caller just calling the Spanish words, he or she makes up a rhyme for that word and the players have to guess what the word is. The caller will show the card briefly after a small wait and then quickly go on to the next card.
Add a touch of flare to your next Fiesta party!
