Spot spring flowers, hear Naw-Rúz greetings and notice new-year wishes being exchanged in this optional bingo for the social part of a Bahá’í Naw-Rúz gathering.
How to run this activity
Offer this optional bingo only during a social activity approved by the event organiser, never during sacred ceremonies, prayer, meditation, fasting moments or active religious service. Check whether each suggested cue fits this actual gathering; allow alternatives and opt-outs without explanation.
Facilitator guidance
Confirm the programme, sacred and social boundaries, dietary requirements and accessibility needs with the organiser. Check all 24 cues against the actual gathering with organiser or community input, offering suitable alternatives and opt-outs without explanation. Choose one-line wins or smaller boards where needed.
Safety and inclusion
Keep this an optional, organiser-approved social activity; never score prayer, worship, sacred rites, religious learning performance, service duties or individual piety. Do not require introductions, touching, photos or disclosure of religious beliefs or fasting practices. Provide accessible alternatives and allow participants to pass. Check local community, language and dietary practices rather than relying on cultural stereotypes.
Cultural context
Bahá’í Naw-Rúz is a holy day marking the new year at the end of the fast. Do not assume that anyone has participated in fasting.
