Kids love bowling. Most of them are terrible at it, but every kid I know loves hurtling the heavy ball down the lane desperately hoping for the elusive strike. With the advent of gutter bumpers kids have much more fun bowling than we did as kids. And I won’t lie, this mom has been tempted on more than one occasion to have the gutter bumpers added for herself. Whether you are looking for traditional bowling, glow bowling or league bowling, there are a ton of bowling lanes in Metro Vancouver ready to help you out.
If we’ve missed your favourite bowling lane, please send us an email (vancouver@familyfuncanada.com) and we’ll update our list pronto.
