Are you looking for a personalized gift for your kid? If so – you have come to the right place. I was in the same position a month or so ago. I badly needed a present for my best friend’s son. I was invited to his birthday party and wanted to give him a gift that would leave him breathless.

I had a few ideas for a birthday gift but no one looked too exciting. I solicited ideas from friends who have kids already but nothing. At that point I decided to go online to look for a unique gift for the kid.

I typed in “personalized gift for kids” and oh, boy I was taken away by the vast number of customized presents. Now I had another problem – I couldn’t decide which one to buy.

However I knew I was on the right path, but when I saw something that turned out to be a custom bowling ball I knew I have found what I have been looking for.

I quickly went to the website that was selling them – OnTheBallBowling.com. I had to decide whether to customize a bowling ball or to go with one of the many designs already available – Spiderman, Barbie and Bowling attitude to name a few.

I chose to start from scratch and design a unique bowling ball. I chose the color, called my friend to email me a picture of his boy, uploaded and centered it and 15 minutes later I was done. Yes, customizing bowling ball is that easy.

I need to mention that I chose to customize a small bowling ball because of the age of the kid. He is not an avid bowler, but he definitely liked my present because it was something that he didn’t have. It is needless to say that all his peers were envy.

A few days later I called his father and he told me that the bowling was prominently displayed in the dining room. My bet is that every time they would have friends coming over they would tell the story of the ball and my name would come up.

You can also give that personalized gift for kids. All you have to do is go to www.OnTheBallBowling.com. It is free to design a ball or pin, but be warn – it can be addicting so make sure that you have enough time on your hands.
