My husband and I grew up in the late ’80s. We know very well how fun it is to play outside with friends. Back then, we played a lot of backyard games.
Super reliable and durable water balloon launcher: The improved new product uses a large diameter, strong elastic cord and double-wrapped Oxford cloth,To provide long-lasting horsepower output and long-term reliability!
In our home, we have a strict rule on gadgets: no more than an hour each day. We believe that they shouldn’t be missing out on real human interaction. So we highly encourage playing outdoors.
To encourage the kids to play outside with friends, we decided to surprise them with a backyard slingshot. They’re having lots of fun with it! Admittedly, my husband and I play with it, too. It’s a really good bonding activity for the whole family.
