Teach Your Kids How to BowlBowling is an exciting sport that can be enjoyed by the whole family together. Whether your family is a newcomer to the sport or you have played on occasion, there are a number of ways for families to become active in bowling. No matter what experience you have with bowling, here you will learn the rules, how to play the game, tips and resources where you can learn more about the game and find a bowling alley close to your home to enjoy the game with your family. Bowling is played with 10 pins sitting at the end of a long lane; with the use of a bowling ball the objective is to knock all ten pins down in two tries. How the game is played: If the bowler does not knock all the pins down on the first try they are given another chance to knock them down. If they knock all the pins down on their second turn this is called a spare (you pick up all the pins you missed in the first turn). Once all the players have taken a turn the next frame is in play until all players take their turn throughout the ten frame game. At the end of the game, on the tenth frame, if you get a strike or a spare you get an extra shot at knocking some extra pins down. Preschool Allow your preschooler to throw the ball the way they feel most comfortable, this usually entails young children throwing it from under their legs with their feet spread apart slightly. Nevertheless, do show your child how to hold and throw the ball properly.
