Santa brought the family a Wii this year for Christmas so “real” bowling was a bit of a challenge for Pumpkin. Being a big 5 year old she certainly did not want to be seen using a baby ramp!! Therefore, making the game a bit more difficult. At times, I just prayed the ball would make it down the lane (probably what my Mom used to do!).
We only played one game, but I was happy both girls were able to complete it in its entirety; scoring in the 80’s not bad!! Pumpkin pouted the entire way home because she did not get any spares or strikes!! She is used to scoring in the 100-200’s on the Wii with strikes being a regular in her game. Hmmm…thank you technology…

Luckily, we were able to move forward and of coarse use this as a teaching lesson!! The girls tried their hardest, accomplished a goal (playing an entire game), it doesn’t matter who “wins”, and just be proud of yourself (Mommy and Daddy were proud too!).
How fun!!! We love bowling (although we don’t do it too much). And I have never seen the ramp either. I know we have those bumpers, but that’s about it. And yes, technology can be a little deceiving!! I’m a “pro” on the Wii!! LOL
