A family in Pasir Ris, Singapore, has gained both praise and criticism for their unconventional approach to family bonding: training with foam dart guns in their HDB block's lift lobby. While some neighbors express concerns about the noise and potential disturbance, many applaud the family's dedication to spending quality time together. The father, a former SAF regular, has turned this unique activity into a platform for community engagement, organizing events and even collaborating with the NCC.

A family in Pasir Ris has turned foam dart gun practice into a unique family bonding activity, drawing both admiration and criticism. Stomp contributor Jailani alerted Stomp to a video circulating on TikTok and Facebook, showing the family's technical training in the lift lobby of their HDB block.

Another said: This one is Encik Munir's team play. Ex-SAF regular. His kids are well-trained for NS or regular already.' The family's patriarch, former company sergeant major Mohamad Munir Rohani, 57, served in the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) for nearly 20 years before retiring in 2006. In 2021, he began these training sessions with his five children, using foam dart guns as a way to strengthen family ties. The catchphrase 'A family that plays together, stays together' is often featured on Munir's TikTok page, where he goes by the name Hosan — a nickname from his military days, combining 'Hosan' with 'Munir.' Despite initial backlash, the family's activities caught the attention of Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC MP Sharael Taha, who invited them to a community networking event in December 2022, praising their innovative approach to family bonding. Since then, the family has gone on to organize various community events, including a festival at Downtown East in October 2023. In 2023, they collaborated with the National Cadet Corps (NCC) to offer team-building programmes for students.
