Gel ball residue, dust, and moisture are the three enemies of a gel blaster.

Foam dart blasters teach aim, strategy, and teamwork, and they get kids outside in a way screens can't match.

7-8mm - a slightly larger, heavier ball with a firmer hit and a touch more range.

Gel balls are 90% water and dissolve after impact, so they won't leave bruises the way hard foam darts sometimes do.
