Does anyone know who sells those styrofoam water shooter thingies?

Sorry, have no idea what they are called Chat Icon

I am not a big fan of water guns ( try to avoid all guns if possible while I can) ...There are these long styrofoam things that you pull back a plunger type of thing and they suck up the water and shoot it out and my DS loves them....Haven't seen them around in any stores
( checked TRU, Walgreens etc...) ...Anyone seen them at Walmart, Target, K-Mart type of stores maybe ? It seems like everyone is already phasing out their summer stuff and I feel like summer just began !

We tried avoiding "guns" as well. It's surprising how many "guns" DC can make out of Legos, paper, cardboard tubes, fingers, etc.... Chat Icon Chat Icon

I know, isnt it amazing ??? My DS isnt even 4 yet and somehow they just know how to make a gun out of just about anything Chat Icon It must just be in them, because its not even as if he watches anything ( purposely anyhow) that entails guns...I'm not a fan of swords right now either - LOL !

But while I can, I keep them out of the houseChat Icon

The swords are even worse! 3yo DD and 6yo DS love having "sword" fights with just about anything they can find.... at least their "guns" can't actually hurt anyone. Depending on what they decide is a good sword, they can cause some hurt!

Unfortunately, there's swordplay on Backyardigans, Lazy Town, and even some of the Noggin interludes. Pirates are a very popular subject....

Yes ! Thats very close to them !!

Except he was playing with them at my SIL's and there were like 20 of them , so I'm thinking she didnt pay $12.99 each - LOL...Thats the same exact concept though ! We are having a pool party and I wanted to get them for the kids....

I should just call her Chat Icon , didnt want to bother her !

Thank you so much...At least if I don't find them in bulk for the party I can get one for my DS Chat Icon ...he will be a very happy little man !

ETA; And kudos to you for actually finding them with my very poor description Chat Icon
