How to make glow in the dark bowling
Materials:
- 6 empty water bottles
- 6 glow sticks
- funnel
- Ball
- Water

2. Activate all glow sticks and place them in the filled water bottles. Secure cap back on.
How to Play Glow in the dark Bowling
- Place the water bottles in a pyramid (3 in the back, 2 in the middle, and 1 in front).
- Make a line on the ground to mark 10 to 20 feet from the glow-in-the-dark bowling pins. This distance depends on the skill level and ages of players.
- Using a ball, roll the ball toward the pins and try to knock as many down as possible.
- Each player will get 2 turns to throw the ball unless the player knocks down all the glow-in-the dark bowling pins on the first try. Which that is called a “strike”.
- Each game has 10 rounds or frames.
- Each bowling pin represents 1 point. Add all the pins that were knocked down during the first and second try during the player’s turn.
- Finish all 10 frames and add up all the player’s points to see who got the highest score.
Tips for Playing Glow in the dark Bowling at Home
- Make sure the playing surface is level and any rocks or sticks are cleared away.
- Play around with the size and weight of ball. For younger players under 6 years old, try using larger balls for easy accuracy. Small balls for older kids.
- This game will teach younger kids the value of sportsmanship, taking turns and counting along with addition.
