Frequently asked questions
Why are toy guns so appealing to kids anyway?
It’s usually less about the “gun” and more about the story. Kids are drawn to powerful narratives: being the hero, saving the day, defending their fort, or engaging in exciting adventures. A toy gun, whether it’s a water blaster or a make-believe stick, becomes a prop in their imaginative world. It represents agency, action, and the classic good-versus-evil dynamic they often see in stories and media. Think of it like a knight’s sword or a wizard’s wand – it’s a tool for heroic play.
