Driveway or Sidewalk Bowling

Use easy to knock over items such as plastic water bottles filled with dirt or some rock at the bottm to create outdoor bowling fun. Have your child use a small sports ball that can be rolled int a formation of "bowling pins". Whoever bowls gets to be the one to set up the pins next. It's helpful to use chalk or some other type of marker to indicate where the pins should stand. Your child will love keeping score of how many pins get knocked over.
