Foam dart guns are popular with both boys and girls of all ages. 

There is a huge selection to choose from, from tiny guns that fit in your pocket, to massive ones that look like they came from a comic book.   

Here are a few of our favorites when it comes to playing games with Nerf guns:

  • Elite Firestrike — This one has a “laser sight” to help with accuracy, making it perfect for precision shooting games.
  • Elite Jolt Blaster — Although it’s tiny enought to fit in a pocket, it packs quite a punch.  This one is perfect for knocking over cups and using in the target prize game. 
  • Mega Cyclone Shock Blaster — My son loves that this one holds 6 darts and doesn’t jam up on him like the smaller revolver-style ones do.
