Gel Blasters...

It’s not a fidget spinner or Nintendo Switch….it’s not Razor Scooter and its not stuffed….they have discovered Gel blaster guns.

These Gel blaster guns fire small, gel balls as ammo. These balls are made of water-absorbent polymer materials. When soaked in water, they expand in size and become soft and squishy.

Here is the magic….you can buy 100,000 gel balls for $10. You put a small amount into a bowl, add water and pretty soon they are expanded into gel balls and ready for battle.

There are plenty of games to play with these gel blasters, but we’ve been playing capture the flag. Two people hide a flag in the front yard and two hide a flag in the back yard. The goal is to find the flag and get into the house.

If you get hit, you have to stop for 10 seconds.

Talk about intensity….even though the gel balls are not dangerous at all, the level of competition would make you wonder if it's life and death.

The point of these toys is to have fun….but to be honest, plenty of arguments have been started, tears have been shed and punches have been thrown…..not by me if you’re wondering 5020202020Recent
