Mum turns her hallway into a glow-in-the-dark bowling alley using water bottles and Amazon bargains
AS LOCKDOWN continues, people have been pulling out all the stops to get creative and prevent boredom.
And one creative mum has been praised for making an incredible glow-in-the-dark bowling alley in her hallway for her kids, using water bottles.
Rachael Harrison took to Facebook to share her impressive home activity, which she said has provided “hours of fun” for her family.
On the group, she wrote: “Made a bowling alley for our hall way.
“Got the uv black light from Amazon for about £16. This came as a pack of two but there are loads on there, some cheaper.
“UV tapes also Amazon £6 for 7/8 tapes. There are also loads of different ones available.
- Neon tape, £6.99 from Amazon -
"Cheap water bottles with different levels of water in each one.
“We played with different points for certain colours.
"Small tennis or foam ball as the bowling ball.”
Her post has clearly impressed other parents, who raved about the bowling alley idea.
One said: “This is brilliant.”
Another added: “What a bloody good idea this is!!!! Genius!”
