Looking for an easy family outing this summer? Big Al’s is offering a seasonal Kids Play Free promotion featuring arcade games, bowling, and family-friendly entertainment — perfect for adding extra fun to your summer plans.

NOTE FROM PUBLISHER: We got this last year and it was amazing. Honestly, it’s as great as it sounds 💛 Some days are definitely busier than others, so keep that in mind, but even on busy days the weekday arcade credits made it totally worth it for our family. We’d often go just for the games, and it easily gave our then 2-year-old and 5-year-old a solid hour of entertainment. The credits are worth real tickets and eligible for trading in for prizes!

We also chose to add an adult pass (completely optional!) because my husband and I genuinely enjoy bowling too. Bonus: they often run daily specials that are major steals for families.

Location: Big Al’s, 27 Ranch Dr, Milpitas, CA 95035

Ages: Kids 15 and under are FREE

Cost: Kids Play Free for 2 games + Arcade Credits; Additional fees to account for are shoes (optional $20 shoe pass for the whole summer) and if adults want to bowl
