Theo went bowling for the first time and he loved it so much. We found an empty old alley not too far from our place and it was a simple, indoor pleasure for a chilly Monday afternoon. Theo kept saying, “I’m excited!” and “We’re going bowling!”.
All the kitschy things that make bowling fun seemed to keep him tickled… my silly shoes, all the video games, snack machines, picking out our ball, the machine that brings the ball back to you, the pins, the lights, everything. We played one game, ate chocolate covered pretzels from the vending machine and tried a few video games.
My favorite was, “Why is my ball going so slow?” and “You’re a great bowler, Mama!”. Haha.
Afterwards we visited our favorite burger joint in Park Slope and had a lovely, overpriced organic lunch. Thanks, Papa!
