Kids Bowl Free!

June 7, 2013 by OneMommy

 

free bowling for kids

“Mom, I’m bored.”

These are words moms dread hearing over and over during summer vacation.

When it’s too hot to run around at the park, and you don’t want to spend a bunch of money, what do you do?

Go bowling!

Thanks to a wonderful program called Kids Bowl Free, your kids can bowl 2 free games every day all summer long.  That’s a lot of bowling!

This summer I decided my 2 preschoolers were ready for the challenge, so I signed them up for the program.  Did I mention it was free?  (I love that!)

So I loaded them up in the car and we headed off to check it out.

It has been a while since I’ve bowled.  Things sure have changed!

The lady at the desk was super helpful.  Pretty soon our lane was outfitted with bumpers and 8 pound bowling balls.  Once we were decked out in our bowling shoes (just $2 to rent), we were set to give it a go.

Little Peanut went first.  She gave that ball a mighty shove… free summer fun for kids

Can you tell she was proud of knocking down the pins?

After rolling the balls down a few times, the kids decided to try the ramp.

Yes, I said ramp.  Who would have thought that they would have a ramp for preschoolers to roll the ball down?   I mean, how neat is that?  It makes bowling easy and fun for the whole family!

And you know what?

I found out my youngest is a bowling natural!  In his first game, the four-year old got 4 spares and the only strike between us! kids bowl free program

The whole place was full of moms with kids bowling — so great to see!

We will definitely be bowling a lot this summer… After all, I have to redeem myself!

See that?  He got 97 to my 93…  And that was with me keeping the bumpers on when I bowled!

 

Want to bowl with your kids?  If you plan to bowl more than a couple times, save money and get the family pass, which is good for up to 4 adults, for just $24.95.  Remember, kids are free all summer long as long as you sign them up!

 

And, if you are looking for more free (or almost free) summer activities, check out my Free Summer Fun post.

      This is our first year, and we had so much fun! I love having the chance to spread the word about such a neat program for kids.

    I hope you have tons of fun! Mine keep asking when we can go back again — this time we are bringing Daddy so he can see what it’s like to get your butt kicked by the 4 year-old! 🙂
