When you have run out of ideas for fun themed birthday parties at home, move the party to the bowling alley. Enjoy the idea of not having to host and clean up in your home and give the kids a great party that will "bowl" them over. Follow the steps below to throw a birthday party at a bowling alley. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Check with the local bowling alley to find out what their birthday party policy entails. There may be a separate room for cake and ice cream and gifts. You may be asked to pay a fee per child or a flat fee per hour.
2. Invite your children's friends and to make it easy on your family, have everyone meet at the bowling alley. If parents are not staying for the party, make arrangements for their children to be picked up at a pre-arranged time.
3. Make games out of each frame of bowling. You might have the children hop, use their opposite hand or bowl backwards.
4. Ask the proprietor of the bowling alley for some old bowling pins that they are getting rid of. Use gold and silver spray paint and some glitter to make prizes for games.
5. Give out bowling pin prizes for "Highest Score," "Lowest Score" and "First Strike" for example. You could also buy a gift card to the bowling alley where you are having the party and give that as a grand prize for most strikes or most wins.
