Snaps

Snap pop fireworks are akin to firecrackers, minus the need to light a fuse. Pop its are small paper balls made of tissue paper, filled with a friction-sensitive composition of small rocks or gravel and the low-key explosive, silver fulminate, giving them the crackle they need to pop and snap for your enjoyment. All you need to do is pick up a snap pop or two, or a handful, and throw them to the ground or against another hard surface. Or you can place them on the ground and step on them when wearing proper footwear, and they let off a loud and familiar bang or pop sound.

As mentioned above, snap pop firecrackers are often also known as pop-its, devil bangers, snappers, throwdowns, poppers, whackpops, whip 'n pops, and by many other fun names. They have become beloved fireworks staples at birthday parties, Halloween, Fourth of July cookouts, weddings, and exuberant other outdoor events.

Snap pop fireworks contain about .8 milligrams of silver fulminate, the explosive needed to detonate each snap pop, so it is not dangerous unless used carelessly, like any firework device. However, most manufacturers place age-related warnings on their packaging, warning customers to not allow anyone under 12 years old to handle pop it firecrackers and that anyone under 18 uses them only under parental supervision.

Keep your snap pop firecrackers with their box, instructions, and any other packaging to reference everything as needed. All of our fireworks meet all the testing criteria set by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).

Snap pops aren't illegal, but they do require the same care of use you would take with any firework. Use them only in safe and open places, always directing them away from other people, animals, or flammable materials. Adult supervision required.
