Fun at home! DIY bowling ideas

lighterutatane
A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

Bowling is a ball game loved by people of all ages.

However, it’s not always easy for young children or older adults to make their way to a bowling alley and enjoy it.

In particular, many seniors—who lived through the bowling boom—may be thinking they’d like to try it again.

This article introduces handmade bowling ideas that you can enjoy at home or in care facilities without going to a bowling alley.

Many of these ideas are fun both to make as a craft and to play with, so please enjoy the making process as well.

Bowling lane of blocks

If you want to go beyond just pins and balls and actually build a proper lane for bowling, why not try making a bowling lane with blocks? We recommend using LEGO bricks, a popular toy among children.

Combine different types of LEGO pieces to create a bowling lane in any shape you like.

With a bit of ingenuity, you can even build a high-tech bowling alley—like a mechanism that resets fallen pins to their original position, or one that returns the ball to your hands after you throw it! If you enjoy playing with blocks or are skilled at it, give it a try.
