Crazy Bowling Game: This is a twist on a regular bowling game. The goal of the game is still to receive the largest amount of points; however, it is a bit trickier.
Setup:
1. Have a list that describes each move
2. Review the list yourself and be able to demonstrate how to do them
Playing:
First, you will review the rules with the participants. The same rules apply as in bowling but you may want to add a few more so children do not get hurt. An example would be to remain seating while a person is bowling.
An example of a crazy bowl would be to bowl standing on one leg. Another example would be to bowl backwards. You can make up as many crazy bowl approaches as you want. Just make sure they are doable and not going to injure anyone who tries it. The person to score the most points at the end of the game wins.
