Kids Bowl Free Family Pass Details
What is the Family Pass, and how does it work? We're getting this question way more than we have in past years, so we're going to share some more about it with a short video and a quick recap.- The family pass is optional, and you can add it to your Kids Bowl Free account, after you register your kids. – The family pass is NOT required in order for the kids you've registered to receive the free bowling offer. – It's an AMAZING deal! You can use the pass, every day that the program is available at your center. That means you can bowl the 2 FREE games along with your kids any day from the start of the program to the end. Many families find just bowling a time or two makes it a great value. – The family pass is to be used with your kids. How do you get the family pass? Step 1: Make sure that you've signed up your kids for this summer. If you've not visit KidsBowlFree.com and find a participating center near you.Step 2: You can upgrade during that process or you can add the family pass at any time from now through the end of the program by logging into your account on KidsBowlFree.com. Step 3: Go to your participating bowling center, during the available hours and dates. You'll show them the coupons on our app or by logging into our website on your phone. Still have questions?

Chelsea Lanes – Ages 2-15
Station 300 in Saline, kids need to be between ages 2-15.
Spins Bowl requires kids to be ages 2-12.
Whitmore Lanes – ages 2-15

Do Kids Really Bowl Free?

Yes and No. Kids receive two free games a day during designated hours. However, bowling shoes are required and rentals are not included. If you plan to take advantage of Kids Bowl Free a lot, you may want to consider purchasing bowling shoes. Last year, I quickly looked on Amazon, and was disappointed in the price – $40+/pair. Or, you could try looking locally at Play It Again Sports. Still, if you plan to bowl frequently and have multiple kids you can pass them down to, it may be worth it.

What If I Want to Bowl with My Kids or Have Older Kids?

Unfortunately, parents don’t bowl free with their kids. However, the Kids Bowl Free Family Pass program allows parents, older siblings, caregivers, and other adults to pay a flat fee to bowl with their kids all summer long.

Pricing for the Kids Bowl Free Family Pass is not available until you sign your kids up for the program. This makes it difficult to comparison shop the participating kids bowl free locations near Ann Arbor.

When Can We Bowl?

Hours vary by bowling alley and may be restricted at busy times.

Can I Bowl Free at Another Bowling Alleys?

Unfortunately, you can only register for a single bowling alley per account. Your Family Pass is also only valid at one bowling alley.
