Anyone got a spare?

Hit up kids summer bowling for free.  After having such great success with the free skating we thought why not add bowling to the mix.  I got us registered and all set to bowl.  We of course set out as soon as I got it all put together.

We had a few choices of bowling alley's to choose from and decided to stay with what was local.  Once we found the place we quickly got the kids in their shoes and the balls picked out to start their first of two free games.

They did play with bumpers on and Meg started out trying to be good and bowl like an adult.  Andrew saw a ramp and decided that the balls were just too heavy and the ramp was the way to go.  He quickly began racking up the spares using the ramp technique.  This got Megan's competitive juices flowing.  She was not using any help and even with bumpers found herself with a few gutter balls.

After Meg lost the first game to Andrew she decided maybe the ramp was the way to go.  I had both kids now using the toddler ramp to play.  Good thing these games were free.  Andrew still ended up winning the second game and the mood was not good.  It was time to call it a day with bowling.  We have yet to go back as I'm not sure with just the 2 of them it's a good idea.  We need to find more kids to play a good game with and then maybe it will be more fun.  We'll have to see if we make it back out.
