Marshmallow Crossbow Review

When an email popped through to me about a Marshmallow gun I immediately started imagining myself dressed as rambo firing marshmallows at anyone and everyone.

It arrived in a slimline box and opening it it looked daunting, assembly is not my strong point. However all you have to is pop the long bits into the side of the gun to create the crossbow, then simply attach the string…it took no more than 30 seconds, even for me!!

To use the crossbow all you do is pop a marshmallow in, and then twist the red bit.  Then simply pull the knob on the back. Then it’s ready to shoot a marshmallow at whoever and whatever you like!
Here is a video demo!

I needed a willing target so I started shooting at my two children, I will point out they are 7 and 9, not toddlers. They were happy to be on the receiving end of a marshmallow firing at them, maybe I should feed them more….or maybe they just really love marshmallows? Either way they adore my new weapon and have been pestering me to shoot them more and more!
The fun for me didn’t just stop there, I decided to surprise my hubby when he got in from work. With a picture of a ninja in my mind now, I decided to hide behind the sofa. Unfortunately for me he had decided to get petrol on the way home so I was left pretending to be a ninja for 15 minutes longer than I anticipated. I can truly say that it was worth every second when he walked in that door, stuck his head round the door frame into the lounge to say hello….and BAM! a marshmallow fired  straight at him and hit him on the nose. I was in hysterics for a good hour afterwards, it still gives me the giggles now just thinking about it.

This is a brilliant toy, I am sure children would have plenty of fun with this, but adults will equally love it. It has created many hours of fun in our house, and I am sure there is many more hours of entertainment to come!
