Date: 1950s, 1960s

Bowling was truly a sport for the entire family. With both men and women frequently taking part in league bowling, bowling centers could set themselves apart by offering childcare services. Paramus Lanes in Paramus, New Jersey, was one establishment that offered these services. The AMF center hosted a playroom and nursery, providing babysitting so parents could enjoy their game with a bit more peace of mind.
