They both had the same single bullet shooting gun and a bucket of bullets at their feet.  The winner got a small prize and points for their team.

Short the cans. <\/strong>Soda cans sprayed silver, three per team.  First one to knock them all down or most knocked down in 60 seconds, whatever comes first.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Target 2. Shoot a moving target. <\/strong> I had a moving target on a tv screen and they shot suction nerf bullets.  press pause on the video as you here them fire and you can see where it lands.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Target 3. Shoot bullets into a small hole cut into a box. <\/strong>  For this game I gave them one shot only and then they passed it on to the next in lone and kept cylcing through everyone.  They wanted to keep playing this one for a while.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Target 4: shooting hanging targets <\/strong>, these were just disposable plates and small bells strung up with string, the bell hits were worth more than the plates.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-03-at-4.27.09-pm-550x462.png\" alt=\"nerf gun party games\" width=\"550\" height=\"462\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-90482\" data-wp-pid=\"90482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-03-at-4.27.09-pm-550x462.png 550w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-03-at-4.27.09-pm-300x252.png 300w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-03-at-4.27.09-pm-768x645.png 768w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-03-at-4.27.09-pm-357x300.png 357w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Screen-Shot-2019-04-03-at-4.27.09-pm.png 1980w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Nerf Dodge<\/strong><br \/>\nFor these next two games we gave all the kids protective goggles.  You will also need a nerf gun per kid, you can get them to bring their own or do what we did and buy a bulk lot from someone who is selling their nerfs cheap on ebay.<br \/>\nAll the kids were outside in a defined area and two adults were on the side shooting nerf bullets at them (a very enjoyable moment of the party).  If they got hit they ran to the edge, picked up a nerf gun and helped shoot at those who were left.  Last one standing wins a prize and points for the team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nerf Capture the flag<\/strong><br \/>\nI hired wardrobe moving boxes so they had some obstacles to hide behind.  Each team has to try and get the other teams flag, if they get shot on the way they have to run back and touch their base.  This was amazing fun, they strategised and worked together as a team and did not want to stop playing.<\/p>\n<p>Then it was time for party food and of course the cake.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/nerf-gun-cake-how-to-make-video-ann-reardon-550x324.jpg\" alt=\"nerf gun cake how to cook that\" width=\"550\" height=\"324\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-90468\" data-wp-pid=\"90468\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/nerf-gun-cake-how-to-make-video-ann-reardon-550x324.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/nerf-gun-cake-how-to-make-video-ann-reardon-300x177.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/nerf-gun-cake-how-to-make-video-ann-reardon-768x452.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/nerf-gun-cake-how-to-make-video-ann-reardon-400x236.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n  \"@context\": \"http:\/\/schema.org\/\", \n  \"@type\": \"Recipe\", \n  \"name\": \"Nerf Gun Cake Recipe\",\n  \"image\": \"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/public_html\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/nerf-gun-cake-ann-reardon-how-to-cook-that-550x309.jpg\",\n  \"description\": \"Nerf gun cake template and video tutorial by Ann Reardon How To Cook That\",\n  \"keywords\": \"nerf gun cake, birthday cake, boy cake ideas, nerf cake, 3d nerf gun cake, cake template, ann reardon, how to cook that\",\n  \"author\": {\n    \"@type\": \"Person\",\n    \"name\": \"Ann Reardon\"\n  },\n  \"datePublished\": \"2019-04-04\",\n    \"aggregateRating\": {\n    \"@type\": \"AggregateRating\",\n    \"ratingValue\": \"4.5\",\n    \"reviewCount\": \"24\"\n  },\n\"interactionStatistic\": {\n    \"@type\": \"InteractionCounter\",\n    \"interactionType\": \"http:\/\/schema.org\/CommentAction\",\n    \"userInteractionCount\": \"37071\"\n  },\n\"publisher\": {\n  \"@type\": \"Organization\",\n  \"name\": \"Reardon Media Pty Ltd\"\n  },\n  \"prepTime\": \"PT360M\",\n  \"cookTime\": \"PT25M\", \n  \"totalTime\": \"PT385M\", \n  \"recipeCategory\": \"dessert, party, morning tea, afternoon tea, snack\", \n  \"recipeCuisine\": \"Australian, American\", \n  \"recipeYield\": \"20\", \n  \"nutrition\": {\n    \"@type\": \"NutritionInformation\",\n    \"calories\": \"257 cal (1075.29 kilojoules)\"\n  },\n  \"recipeIngredient\": [\n    \"For 3 trays of vanilla sprinkle cake:\",\n    \"780g (27.51 ounces) (27.51 ounces (779.9 grams)) or 3 1\/2 cups margarine\",\n    \"630g (22.22 ounces) (22.22 ounces (629.93 grams)) or 5 cups icing sugar\",\n    \"18 large eggs\",\n    \"780g (27.51 ounces) (27.51 ounces (779.9 grams)) or 7 1\/2 cups almond meal\",\n    \"rind of 3 lemons\",\n    \"6 tsp baking powder\",\n    \"270g (9.52 ounces) (9.52 ounces (269.89 grams)) or 1 3\/4 cups plain or all purpose flour\",\n    \"2 teaspoons vanilla\",\n    \"1 cup sprinkles (optional)\"\n  ],\n  \"recipeInstructions\": [{\n    \"@type\": \"HowToStep\",\n    \"text\": \"Preheat the oven to 180C (356 degrees Fahrenheit) (356 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius)).\"\n  },{\n    \"@type\": \"HowToStep\",\n    \"text\": \"Beat together the icing sugar and the butter until light and fluffy.\"\n  },{\n    \"@type\": \"HowToStep\",\n    \"text\": \"Mix in the almond meal and then the eggs.
