When it gets too hot to play outside this summer (and at some point, it always does), go bowling! The Kids Bowl Free program gives kids free passes for bowling all summer long. And yes, it is legit! Not only can kids bowl FREE in Wichita this summer, but up to four adult family members can bowl with them all summer with an inexpensive Family Pass.
Sign up online at www.kidsbowlfree.com and every week you’ll get an email that includes a week’s worth of free games–2 free games per day — at one of several popular Wichita-area bowling alleys.
This year there are participating bowling alleys in Wichita, Derby, and Hutchinson. (There are other participating centers in Kansas, too.)
You can also sign up for the Family Pass, which includes up to 2 games per day for up to 4 adult family members.
Check the KidsBowlFree website for age limits and whether shoe rental is included at your chosen location. This is a great summer activity for kids and parents.

April 18, 2015 at 10:44 AMThis is a great idea but the only bowling alley on the west side of Wichita is limited to 11-4 Monday through Friday … I’m at work during those times so it doesn’t do me a dang bit of good. Any way you can get them to expand those times? Maybe add a Sunday or at least move it back to 6 or 7? Even on my short days I’m at work til 3. Would take me 30 minutes to pick up my daughter and get to the West Acres Bowling alley, then I’m paying my part and shoes for 30 minutes. Not even worth it. I don’t have the gas to go all the way out east.

April 19, 2015 at 10:53 AMGreat news! I went to the bowling alley this morning so I asked them about this. They said they have no plans to offer evening or weekend times because they have leagues bowling then, BUT – you only have to be there before 4 p.m. To redeem your Kids Bowl Free coupon; you don’t have to be finished by 4. I hope that helps!
I got two strikes this morning. 🙂 For me that’s good, LOL.
