A bow and arrow set was a type of toy designed for children to play pretend and emulate rangers,[1] as well as means by which to teach children proper etiquette regarding ranged weaponry. Despite being supposedly harmless fun, it was generally advised that adults supervise children playing with them.[2]

Description[]

Each set consisted of three bowstrings,[1] five arrows whose tips were padded tips[1][3] by affixed bean bags,[1] and a small bow.[1][3] These bows were crafted with a very resilient willow stem, had a 5 lb (2,300 g) pull,[2] and weighed around 2​ to ​3 pounds (0.91​ to ​1.4 kilograms).[1][3]
