My ten year old is getting into bowling making me a super happy daddy. She still walks up to the line before swinging and still uses bumpers. Anyone have successful tips that worked with their kids. She still tries right down the middle. Her hand starts behind the ball but usually ends up on top. She has thrown a 6 pound up to a 10. Heavier seems to work better most of the time. She can bowl 4 games at a time. I always encourage and never push her a certain way. Any pointers?

I would say start with the fundamentals. Proper stance and setup and then work on proper timing and balance at the foul line. Also this may get a little expensive since her hands will probably change a lot from year to year but her own ball properly drilled for her hand so she doesn't get into the habit of squeezing to hold a house ball.
