Comments about Child's Archery Bow and Arrow Set:
We bought this for our then 3yr old son for Christmas. He learned very quickly how to shoot it, and is very accurate!
The suction cups don't stick to the paper target, but it does give him something to aim at. We HAVE been able to get them to stick to walls and more.
This toy has given us hours of enjoyment and he is now 5 and still loves it - playing with it daily! I had read some poor reviews, but disagree with them and think this is a wonderful product. We're so happy that we picked this one!

Comments about Child's Archery Bow and Arrow Set:
Inexpensive way to introduce young children to archery. My son is 2 3/4 years old and loves "his bow and arrows". A few of the arrows had nicks in the shafts which had been painted over. One of the rubber cups fell off right out of the package. The arrows will not snap onto the string, which makes it extremely hard for him to corectly hold the bow, pinch the arrow nock between his fingers and pull the string back while trying to focus on the target. A friend is going to put some string serving on to help with the arrows falling off. The paper target included is cute but for suction cup arrows, what's the point?
Delivery was prompt, placing my order on a Saturday evening and received everything I ordered by Wednesday afternoon. It appeared someone tried to open my package during shipment. Nothing was taken, but 3Rivers may want to look into using a different shipper.

Comments about Child's Archery Bow and Arrow Set:
I bought this set for my son on his 5th birthday. I had thought I would get the set for 4-7 year olds. However, I let my son look at the different sets online with me and he felt strongly that he wanted the suction cup set. I think he was right. For a child who has never even touched a bow and arrow, this is perfect. He feels totally comfortable with it and that is what I wanted. My only complaint would be that the suction cups will never stick to anything. They came all mis-shapen due to how they were packaged with each other. That is okay. After he outgrows this set we can move on to a junior set. Then we will pass this set on to my youngest, who already likes to toddle around the house holding one of the arrows :)

We got our son a set like this when he was very young. He had a blast! The suction-tipped arrows didn't hurt anything around the house so we let him shoot just about anything.
It was also an inexpensive way to introduce our son to archery. Hopefully we'll be doing the same for our grandchildren in a few years.
