Boo Bowling! A Ghostly Halloween Party Game that's Fun for the kids


 Here's a fun game for the kids at your Halloween party. It's a nice safe game.
 We first saw this game  in the Taste of Home magazine. It's a great idea!



Our dollar store paper towels had a bit of a design but I'm sure if you
 prefer a plain paper towel you can find them. You want a very thin roll. 
We tried to use our Costco paper towels and the roll was over an 1" thicker. 
(as it should be)  Use a clear piece of tape to secure the starting edge 
of the paper towel. (The starting edge on the paper towels I used was still 
secured to the roll so I didn't have to use tape) 
We bought the foam pumpkin at Michaels for $6.99. 
Already had the 1" electrical tape and the googly eyes.



Set up the 6 paper towel rolls in a triangle on a flat surface and
 let the kids take a turn throwing the pumpkin (as if it were a bowling ball) 
 and see how many "pins" they can knock down. This is a game that can 
be played over and over, as many times as they want and for as long as it is fun!



Use an exacto knife to cut the three circles. Just make sure they are
 large enough for everyone's fingers. You can either use black paint or 
black marker to color the sides of the circles. The foam is a dark yellow
 color and not very "Halloweenie" (is that a word?)


When we put the googly eyes on the bowling pins 
(attached with foam tabs) we made each one a little different,
 but it's up to you how you style your ghosts.  So now you have
 another fun game to add to your Halloween tradition and best
 of all it's easy on the wallet...... Enjoy!
