I entertained myself by reading my prior post on the various weapons my boys have grown up with at Boys, toys, Nerf wars. I'm including the photos here for convenience, but you should go back
and read the original post with the scintillating commentary!
5 years later, my boys have continued to play with Nerf guns, even though video games has a strong, strong pull for them, but I thought I would update the list of toys in our household in case you find yourself with a boy and was wondering what they get up to.
This is what mine get up to, the older pictures and progression are below.
The new stuff!! Presenting the Rhino Fire! Check out the video here of what this baby can do! I didn't take pictures but we also have the Hail Fire!
Parents of teenage boys, take heart, my teenage son has found something that can occupy his time that is NOT video games!
I introduce you to Magic: The Gathering! And I thought the rules for Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh! were complicated, then this comes along. I've given up understanding the rules. My son can play this for HOURS with his friends. A card game. I repeat for HOURS. Granted, this may just be a nerd pastime, but I am not arguing with that!

The lowly cardboard inner tube of the gift-wrap roll. Good for some healthy bashing action. |
