In addition to 38 bowling lanes, there is a 2,500 square foot laser tag facility, game zone arcade, pool tables and a bar so Dad can watch the big game. The menu has been recently updated to include items ranging from chicken fingers to prime rib.

The Brunswick Zone XL is offering a special deal this summer. Kids can stop in to pick up a summer pass that is good for a free game of bowling every day this summer. When school is in session, bring the report cards in at the end of each quarter, and for every A, students will receive a free game of bowling.

When you’re tired of the kids drawing on the walls, take them to Handmade on Main in downtown Algonquin to let them release their inner creativity.

Handmade on Main is where you can paint your own pottery like coffee mugs, plates, picture frames and more. There are no studio or painting fees—just the cost of the pottery pieces—with items starting as low as just $7.

Been there, done that? The studio now offers jewelry painting that can be taken home the same day! Let the kids pick out a round-, cube- or heart-shaped necklace to paint.
