I got a Supersplat when I was younger, and set up little targets in the garden. At about 7-10m it is more accurate than some air-pistols and I was really happy with it. My dad accidently shot me in the head once and it hurt, certainly more than an airsoft gun. I had a bruise for weeks. For your kids who want to put little splats of bio-degradable paint everywhere, it's an ideal Christmas present. the gun its self and the paintballs can be purchased in some Woolworths stores, I got mine in Debenhams a long time ago . But there easy to find online.
