Editorial Review
The Lightwriter Glow-in-the-Dark Activity Set is oodles of fun! Play a solar-system game; match dinosaur skeletons to their proper names; explore bioluminescent underwater critters; play tic-tac-toe; or just draw! More than a fancy art kit, this set includes the Light Pen, which energizes glow-in-the-dark sheets with a blast of light; a lightproof storage case and desk; seven stencils with diverse subject matter ranging from skeletons to solar systems; two phosphorescent sheets that will last for years; plus an activity guide with tons of information on how phospholuminescence works in both the natural and the scientific world. Lightwriter appeals to a wide range of ages and interests, from the artistically challenged to the sophisticatedly scientific. And it works great under the covers at bedtime! --Julie Ubben

Customer Reviews

Wouldn't buy it
Thought this product was cool based on the pictures and description, but when I got it it was pretty bad. My daughter lost interest very quick as you really couldn't see the designs unless you were in the complete dark but then you can't see what you are doing. Don't waste money on this one.

Fun, but wish it had more phosphorescent sheets
This is pretty cool, but I wish there was a little more to it.

Yes, it does need to be very dark - but then, the kids think it is cool to sit in the closet... that actually might be its biggest allure.

The kids ask to do it all the time, but there are only 2 phosphorescent sheets. So, it takes them all of 3 minutes per sheet to draw a picture, and then you need to wait for the glow to disappear before you can draw more... so, it is a short lived thing.

Fantastic fun for kids...and adults!
Our daughter received this as a Christmas gift and she absolutely loves it! She is 5 and loves the fact that she can write with a flashlight. The designs fade away after a few minutes allowing her to create more, and it helps her to work on her writing skills as well.

We are very pleased with this item, and have had fun with it ourselves too. We have been able to spend some great family evenings learning about glow-in-the-dark, how it works, and why God provided it for us.

Bravo, GeoSafari! Thank you for an outstanding educational toy that we are definitely going to purchase for others as gifts!!!
