What you'll need:
- Pumpkins
- Bowling pins
- A ball (a soccer ball or basketball works well)
- A flat surface to set up the pins
- A prize for the winner (optional)
How to play:
1. Set up the pins in a triangle formation, with the point of the triangle facing the bowler.
2. The bowler stands at the other end of the flat surface and rolls the ball towards the pins.
3. The bowler scores one point for each pin they knock down.
4. The first player to reach the agreed-upon score (usually 10 or 20) wins the game.
5. If there is a tie, the players can roll again until one player wins.
Tips:
- Use small pumpkins. Small pumpkins are easier to roll and knock over than large pumpkins.
- Get creative with your prizes. You can use candy, toys, or even gift cards as prizes for the winner.
- Make it a team game. Have two teams of players compete against each other. The first team to reach the agreed-upon score wins the game.
- Add some obstacles. Place a few obstacles on the flat surface between the bowler and the pins, such as hay bales or cardboard boxes. This will make the game more challenging.
- Have fun! Pumpkin bowling is a great way to spend time with family and friends. Enjoy the game and the company of your loved ones.
