 Are Orbeez Guns Safe for Kids?

 The Good News:

 Non-toxic gel balls – Made from water-absorbent polymer (safe if accidentally ingested).
 No hard projectiles – Much softer than airsoft BBs or paintballs.
 Bright colors – Most models look like toys, not real guns.

 What Parents Should Watch For:

• Eye protection is a MUST (always included in GelToyNation bundles).

• Supervise younger kids (recommended for ages 8+).

• Check local laws – Some areas restrict public use.
