Bowling is a game where you roll a big ball to knock down pins at the end of a lane. 

Bowling with a Bowling Ramp

• Place the bowling ramp so the top is near the player’s chair or standing position and the bottom points toward the pins.
  
  

• The player places the ball at the top of the ramp.
  
  

• If needed, a peer or adult can help line up the ramp toward the pins.
  
  

• The player pushes or releases the ball, and it rolls down the ramp toward the pins.
  
  

• This allows the player to bowl without needing to lift or throw the ball.

Pendulum Bowling

• A bowling ball (or lighter ball) is hung from a sturdy rope or cord so it can swing freely like a pendulum.
  
  

• The ball starts in front of the player.
  
  

• The player pulls the ball back gently (or a helper assists), then lets it go so it swings forward toward the pins.
  
  

• The swinging motion knocks over the pins without the ball leaving the rope.
  
  

• This is great for repeated turns without having to retrieve the ball each time.
