Ideas for a Nerf Party at Home

A great idea for a girl's or boy's birthday party is a "Nerf war".

Lots of kids nowadays have an arsenal of Nerf.

You can invite your buddies to bring their Nerf guns to the party with them.

While most boys (and many girls) have a stockade full of Nerf guns, you might not have enough props to convert your backyard into a battleground. After all the kids need some things to hide behind.

So, as the weather warms up, you might consider adding a water battle.

For little kiddos, you could rent a set of 12 Water Royale.

Or for big kids, hire a set of 12 super Water Blasters.

Laser Tag versus NERF?

Laser Tag at home and NERF are quiet different games. Laser Tag uses infrared (safe light) to emit an invisible beam in order to tag your opposition. Whereas NERF guns use foam bullets. Both are fun games.

Party Pro Tip!

If your kiddo's buddies are bringing their NERF guns to your party. Have some masking tape and a pen handy, so on arrival, you can label each NERF rifle or pistol with their name. That way, there won't be any mix-ups when it's time to go home.

Transform Your Backyard Into a Nerf Warzone

A cool idea is to hire our camo nets.

Or you can transform your backyard into a Nerf battlefield using oversized cardboard boxes. (Try your local Bunnings store or local hardware shop to see if they have some spare cardboard boxes.)

Half the fun is painting them up before the party. Use green, brown, and black paint to keep with the camo/army theme.

These cardboard boxes become fantastic forts!

To really theme your home for your Nerf party, try renting some camo bunting.

What is a Good Age for a Nerf Birthday Party?

The ideal age for boys or girls at Nerf parties is 5 years old and up. Kids turning 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, or even 11 also love having a Nerf battle party.

A Nerf party can be hours of fun for children.

And they'll be guaranteed to sleep well that night!

If Not Nerf? Then What?

While a Nerf battle party is a lot of fun, there are some drawbacks. Running around searching for random Nerf bullets can be frustrating.

Take your battle to the next level: play laser tag!

If you would like some battle games but don't want the mess then consider laser tag.

No need to pick up all those Nerf bullets!

With laser tag games you can have the red team versus the blue team. You can rent a set of 8 laser taggers so you can play 4 vs 4.

Or even play a free-for-all.
