We used to take our kids to Bowling America in Short Pump almost once a month. While our kids are too little to actually bowl, they have these bowling ramps that make bowling really fun! The kids loved it though my son did complain about having to put on the bowling shoes. The other thing they looked forward to was the french fries.
We think the fries there are excellent!
Anyways, it is interesting but we go the Wii video game earlier this year and somehow got addicted to playing the Wii Sports bowling game. This game is so fun and no worries about kids picking up heavy balls or worries about whether the ball is going to make it to the pins.
I just realized that ever since we got the Wii, we have not been to the Short Pump bowling alley. Not even once. It has been almost 10 months. It has been nice on the budget given that the playing of 2 games for a family of our, rental of shoes plus the inevitable food and drinks can add up to $50 a visit.
My daughter (who has developed rather advanced negotiator skills at such a young age) has been trying to convince us that we should take the $50 savings each month and buy a new Wii game every month. So far, she has not succeeded.
