My 2 daughters (ages 9, 11) had fun playing with this. They said it was fun to shoot, but they wished the arrow went further. They also wished that it came with more than 1 arrow. The title "Lights & Sounds" is misleading because there was nothing that lit up. I looked on the box and couldn't find anything that mentioned "Lights". This does make a variety of sounds, which my daughters thought were funny. Also, the batteries are included, which is always nice.
