Safe Laser Tag for Kids and the Family
By Becky Knouff on
Laser tag has been around since 1979, but has gown in both popularity and in the better development of safer laser devices.
There are still those that worry about letting their children play this game because of safety and moral issues.Every parent should always be careful what they allow their children to play, and the equipment should always be safe.
My children liked to play with lasers and still do, but they did not use the actual lasers used in professional play.They always played using the safer equipment using infrared light beams instead of actual lasers.These only simulate the beam of a laser.People who worry about children playing laser tag, will feel safer with these wrist devices.
As a parent, I did not like those which were shaped like guns.Even in play, I told my children not to point play guns at people.This is why they always played with those which were not shaped as guns.The idea of guns were just not something I morally agreed with anyway.
The wrist devices in this review are not shaped as guns; they do not require vests or protective gear; they are safe; and they are reasonably priced.
Parents should still tell their children not to point them into anyone's eyes.Other then that, they are fun and safe. This is a game the whole family can enjoy without worry at any age above 6 years old.
Using some common sense when purchasing or engaging in an form of recreation is always wise.
I recommend these wrist held laser spy devices for laser tag games.They are safe and you will have loads of fun playing it.

This does sound interesting. I like that there are no "guns." I'm also glad you mentioned about supervision and not pointing the lasers in other's eyes. Those lasers can be harmful. My teen got pointed in the eye by a laser and has been experiencing phantom dots in her vision since.
Sounds like a much better product for kids than guns. We were a gun-friendly household when I was growing up... lots of hunting and all. But I was never allowed to point even play guns at another person. I remember spending a hour in my room when some very special company was visiting because their son and I shot each other with rubber-band guns cut from the backs of Cheerios boxes. With this game you can just call it tag!
I love the fact that they don't look like guns! I was just telling my husband the other day that I don't want our kids to have toy guns or things that look like such. Sounds like a fun toy!
I agree with you on the gun issue, these sound like a good alternative.
Children who were not taught how to handle guns or were around them when they were a kid are more likely to be really curious about them or even play with them when they are older. Most accidents involved with kids playing with guns are of kids who were never taught about gun safety when they were kids, so when they are older they are more curious
