Method
  • Begin by filling six plastic bottles with water.  We used empty bottles from our recycling, but you could just as easily use water bottles from the store.
  • Add 2-3 activated glow-sticks to each bottle, using a different color of glow-stick for each bottle.
  • Tightly secure the lids.  Then, play can begin!

Night Bowling for Kids

Give kids a soccer ball or similar, and they will have a blast tossing it down the "lane" to see how many glowing pins they can knock down.

The glowing ball that we have can be purchased on Amazon here.  You could also add glow-sticks to the inside of a hamster ball and use that.
