    FYI Make sure the boys understand its marshmallow ammo only! Had to replace a window cuz one of my boys used a Frozen chocolate malt ball.

    'You can't eat the ammo!!' 🤣🤣🤣 Priceless!! I love Jess's reaction each time a marshmallow came flying out of the gun!! Like a kid on Christmas!! My Grandkids would LOVE this! I really love the idea of putting all of the parts and the bag of 'ammo' in a gift box and letting them each assemble their own guns. They could all get really creative and use colored magic markers to decorate them! Im a fairly recent subscriber and I absolutely LOVE your channel!!

  • @builtontherockhomestead9390
    @builtontherockhomestead9390 6 лет назад +1

    Great idea. I don't have children, so this series isn't for me, but growing up I got so many presents it was crazy. Plus my birthday is Dec 25. I was raised in a non-Christian home. Christmas morning there were a ton of presents. Then in the evening a bunch of birthday presents. Looking back I'm wondering how my single parent mom afforded it, though I had presents from relatives too. But the day was more about the loot then anything else. I became a Christian in college, but today I still struggle with feelings between Dec 25 is my birthday and Dec 25 is a day to celebrate the birth of my savior. I really think my struggles date back to a childhood where Dec 25 really was just about the loot and my birthday because we were not religious.

    • @r.k.9087
      @r.k.9087 5 лет назад

      Hey It's a Good Life , do it! After I made them for my grandchildren, I made one for myself. Hubby didn’t think it was nearly as funny as I did when I used it to launch a marshmallow attack on him. These shooters are AWESOME!!

    • @TexasBeliever57

    What a great video, such a great homemade gift - heck I'm a 62 year old grandma and I want one!!!! I think these would work for most kids, I know my grand-daughters as well as the grand-sons would have a blast with these. Not to mention their parents (and me)

    Oh my word, you know, I'd love to say that my boys WOULD have loved this when they were little, but at 29, and 24 I know that even now they'd have so much fun with these that the kids wouldn't get a look in lol I shall be showing this to my youngest son later though, because he can make these for his brother's girls! Thank you for showing us this xx

  • @melsterifficmama1808
    @melsterifficmama1808 6 лет назад +7

    You could use mini pompoms from the craft store for reusable ammo! I'll bet you can get them at Walmart, Michael's, etc. My husband's a plumber. I'm going to make him make these for the grandkids!

  • @scotthargraves576
    @scotthargraves576 6 лет назад

    I made several of a variant of these a few years ago when my son was in cub scouts. They were a huge hit with the boys in the den as well as my daughter, who always was present and an honorary scout. The following summer the kids were amusing themselves shooting mini-marshmallow at the chickens. The chickens certainly didn't mind all the free treats. Thanks for the memory!

  • @juliecox2666

    I found this on you tube. What a great gift. Can’t wait till Christmas. I have 7 grandchildren this doesn’t have to be charged. And NO batteries.. that’s a plus in my book. Thanks I’m giving. They actually have to get away from the computer.I’m giving them apart with a visual picture with instructions . I Love it

    Miah, would you consider vloging "how-to" videos with Jess for building structures around the homestead for single mom's and city raised men that don't know their way around power tools and their maintenance?

  • @ourselfreliantlife
    @ourselfreliantlife 6 лет назад +8

    I like it. Simple, inexpensive, and like you said the kids could put it together themselves. Can't wait to see more of these ideas.👍

  • @r.k.9087
    @r.k.9087 5 лет назад

    I can’t thank you enough for sharing this!! I made my grandchildren, 2 girls and a boy, ages 15, 12, and 7, these shooters for Christmas. I gave them unassembled along with a bag of marshmallows. What a HIT. We had a blast putting them together and playing with them. I do have a little suggestion, though. I had to teach them to draw in their breath before putting the gun to their mouths. This wisdom came after I very nearly inhaled a marshmallow! I would love to see more videos like this. By the way, I am making your caramel popcorn with the kiddos this week. They are excited and can’t wait to taste it!

  • @donnachurch1242

    My son's are in there 40's now but we would have ballon and marshmallow fights all the time.You know it's time to stop playing these games when your oldest son throws like a pitcher on a ball park. I had a mark on my face for a few days. Lol It was great fun on rainy days. picking them up for days became a game also. Have fun with those guns. Love in Jesus. God bless you all.

  • @sabrinasearsy1538
    @sabrinasearsy1538 6 лет назад

    So awesome! I am truly in love with pvc creations. I use pvc all the time to make frames for cover or trellises in my garden. I’ve also made a nodding noddy to skein my fresh spun yarns. They are inexpensive and convenient tools because they holdup well and conveniently come apart to store or travel. And the cutting tool is well worth extra money! I’m thinking marshmallow guns may be under the tree here...and our littles are grown so all for the “grown-ups.” 😉 You’re never to old to play!

    This is going to be a great series! After we open all of the presents Christmas morning, I usually have a present I hold back for everyone and it is something to have war with. There have been Nerf guns, those little ball popper animals, etc. This year I am making "snowballs" out of yarn pom poms. It is always so much fun and one of the most remembered things that we do. Can't wait to see what other goodies you all come up with.
