Sweater Weather Wellness
A fall-themed staff wellbeing bingo card with cozy self-care activities.
Alissa Christensen
A fall-themed bingo card filled with cozy self-care activities, from watching a favorite movie to writing down what you're grateful for. Staff mark off activities as they complete them, and a bingo earns a chance to win a prize.
Why try it
Give staff a fun, approachable way to prioritize their wellbeing as the seasons change. A bingo format turns self-care into small, manageable moments instead of one more thing to add to a busy week. With a mix of activities to choose from everyone can find a few ideas that fit naturally into their routine. The shared bingo card also creates easy opportunities for connection, conversation, and celebrating small wins together.

Additional tips for running this resource.
Leader Tip #1
Post a reminder
Send a quick mid-month check-in to celebrate progress and keep the bingo fun going. A friendly reminder can help staff stay engaged and excited to complete their cards.
Leader Tip #2
Keep the prize simple
A coffee gift card, a treat, or an extra few minutes at lunch works well and keeps the activity low-cost.
Leader Tip #3
Leave room to swap
Remind staff that the blank squares are there for them to personalize. They can add activities that feel meaningful, fun, or helpful for their own wellbeing.
