Tabletop Bowling

Pin down your active kids just long enough to create their own bowling game. They'll strike it rich as they build their imaginations and dexterity.

1. Shape white Crayola® Model Magic® into 10 bowling pins. Press the bottoms flat so the pins will stand up. To add realistic detail, trim with red Model Magic.

2. Form a ball out of any color Model Magic. For a marble-effect ball, slightly mix two different colors of modeling compound.

3. Make an indentation for a finger hole with a plastic drinking straw.

4. Dry overnight before bowling.

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.

Crayola Modeling Materials including Crayola Model Magic®, and Model Magic Fusion™, Crayola Air-Dry Clay, and Crayola Dough—

• Keep away from open flames. Do not use to make candleholders, hot plates, trivets, or other similar objects that will be used or placed near fire and other heat sources.
• Do not put in an oven, microwave, or kiln.
• Do not make into vessels/containers that will hold unpackaged food.
• The use of modeling material to make items that look like food is discouraged for children younger than age 5 to avoid their confusion with real food.
• Unless sealed with a water-resistant glaze, do not make projects exposed to or immersed in water, such as boats or outdoor bird feeders. They would disintegrate when exposed to moisture.
• Crayola Dough—contains gluten (wheat flour) as an ingredient.
• Crayola Air-Dry Clay, Crayola Model Magic and Model Magic Fusion are gluten-free. However, they are produced on the same machinery as Crayola Dough which does contain gluten. Although the machines are cleaned prior to the start of each production run, there is a slight possibility that trace amounts of gluten from Crayola Dough may be present in the other modeling compound products. For information regarding specific ingredients or allergic concerns, please call our Consumer Affairs department at 1-800-272-9652 weekdays between 9 AM and 4 PM Eastern Standard Time.

"Every child made a tabletop bowling set at my son's birthday party. It was the perfect way to wind down after bowling."
Toni A., mom of 8-year-old.

"Model Magic is so portable. The kids make new balls every time I come back, and they all want to keep score."
Karim T., teenage babysitter.

According to the National Bowling Hall of Fame & Museum, the reason most bowling shoes are so colorful (typically an unusual combination of three colors) is to make sure they are returned after use.
