This probably doesn't rank particularly high on Dr. Spock's list of suggestions for quality family bonding time, but we're sure having fun.
It started with Uncle Eric and Aunt Sarah's Christmas present of two Nerf Dart guns for AJ. We had so much fun running around with them that we decided we needed two more. And then, knowing we were having a bunch of people over for New Year's, I made the mistake of sending Jeff to the store to buy extra darts.
We are now up to seven Nerf dart guns, and they are a blast (pun intended). The only rules are no shooting at someone's face, and no shooting if any candles are lit.
As an added bonus, a side game has also evolved from this newest family activity. It's called "find the missing darts." They seem to be showing up in the most unusual spots. Certain alliances also seem to be forming as the kids decide to which parent to give the darts they find. So far, for the most part, I think I've got 'em on my side.
