BOWLING SET
I made this bowling set out of Liquid Coffeemate plastic bottles. You just rinse the bottle out thoroughly with soap and water, remove the label, let the bottle dry, then screw the cap back on and it’s a “bowling pin.” These bottles are lightweight so they can be used in the house with a small rubber ball. I bought one at K-Mart which is soft enough to be grasped and rolled on a hard floor surface. I have made a set with smaller Coffeemate bottles for a younger child (3 yrs.old). It takes a while if you want to make a set of ten, but that’s part of the fun. The kids get excited everytime they get another bowling pin and they can still play with the set even if it only has three or four pins. A quart-size plastic milk bottle could also be used, or any bottle that is broader at the bottom than at the neck.
