I was part of a kids bowling league as a kid. We named ourselves the Oddballs. It fit. Every Friday afternoon when school let out, our parents would drive us to the bowling alley. I loved my purple eight-pound ball and the cute case it came in. My friends and I were not great but we have great memories of the popcorn, hot dogs, spares, strikes, and the echoing sound the pins made while falling down for hours on end. Some of these afternoons were followed by late night sleepovers complete with cold pizza the following morning.
Now that I have kids of my own I am constantly looking for cool activities to do on hot summer days. Bowling is perfect. Once I found out that it was free at our local bowling alley (and venues across the country) we were hooked.
1. Find a participating Kids Bowl Free bowling alley in your area.
2. Sign your kids up completely FREE (pay only for shoe rental or bring your own bowling shoes)
3. Receive a weekly email with tickets for TWO FREE bowling games per week, per child 14 and under.
4. (Optional) Download the APP to enter your scores, access your FREE passes, and have a chance to win prizes including a bowling ball.
Our bowling alley is just a hop, skip, and a jump away so this is an easy way to sneak away from the normal routine and have some fun. We usually allot about an hour per game, and I usually join in on the fun. Discounted family passes are also available.
This promotion runs all summer long. Our local bowling alley goes until September 1 so we still have plenty of weeks worth of free passes to look forward to.
