I go one step further I put Red Food Coloring/Dye in the water and make it blood red, just love the pink mist it makes when the jug explodes!

Yep.
Reactive targets are best, a pop can full of water is better than an empty one.

I remember a long time ago someone saying take bars of soap as one way of showing the power of the rifle and making a child realise they need to use it safely.

If they're young kids, hard to beat blow-up balloons staked to the ground. A bit of a pain to set up, a bigger pain to CLEAN up...but boy do kids like it. Easy to hit, colorful, usually moving a little, nice "pop" sound, etc.

Little kids (in my experience) enjoy a bit of shooting then usually want to move on before long. Balloons? Pretty much will shoot those as long as you're prepared to blow them up, set them up. I used to wear out before the kids did!

We used to tape Necco candy wafers to a string and hang them up. Very challenging, especially if there is a bit of a breeze. Bonus is the candies are biodegradable just remember to take the strings with you when your done.

The guy I just bought my newest rifle from, makes these in his spare time...

They look like great little "flipping" targets, and the resettable hangers look nice too !

Rice crispies! Buy a bag or two or three, shoot, them, birds will eat the remains!

Jumping Jacks. Somewhat like JOHN_R1's first picture. I had a Hutterite buddy make some for me and sold a few at gunshows.

Got the metal ones you shoot they go up and hang then shoot the reset target and your back at it again but I got to say the most fun I have is drilling a holes through golf balls, run a line through then and hang them off a horizontal beam or whatever you come up with, shoot, hit them and they spin around the beam etc, lots of fun. Make it challenging back out the distance, shoot rested and free hand

Saltine crackers always work good and when those become too easy cheese nips and ritz are next.

Put over 300 rounds into mine playing the 'race' game last week with a buddy

We had about 30 2l pop bottles filled with colored water last year, and the kids enjoyed that. Better though is any kind of melons or cucumbers with the 40gr ballistic tips. Porcelain is not bad, but a real mess to clean up.

[bigbaddad]

We shoot cattails, inexpensive, reactive, renewable and no clean up...
