The Crayola Glow Station lets kids create cool, glowing masterpieces using a glow-in-the-dark, poster-sized canvas and one Light Wand with crystal-tip attachment for magical coloring effects. Supplies include 2 stencil sheets, 13 stencil "light-resist" shapes, 2 light texture sheets and one dry erase broadline marker.

The award-winning Crayola Glow Station empowers kids to create incredible illustrations in a whole new way -- with light! The Glow Station is the place for kids to become glow-in-the-dark artists -- using a light wand and stencils to make luminous illustrations on the glow canvas. Drawing with the wand encourages kids to use the artistic and fine-motor skills they've started learning in school. Recommended for children ages six and up, this activity center is a fun way to create, alone or with a friend. Glow Station Ages: 6+ Requires: 3 "AAA" batteries (not included) What We Think Fun factor: Durability: Ease of assembly: Educational factor: Novelty factor: The Good: Glow-in-the-dark fun with loads of ways to play and create. The Challenging: Stencils not as stimulating as freehand drawing. In a Nutshell: Glowing canvas with light wand lets kids make amazing luminous creations. The Glow Station comes with plenty of stencils and texture sheets for your child to experiment with. View larger. Using the light wand, kids can create luminous, glow-in-the-dark drawings.View larger. Award-winning Design: Kids and Parents Agree A 2009 Winner of the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Best Toy Award, the Crayola Glow Station is a hit with kids and adults. Kids will love watching as their ideas literally come to light on the canvas. And parents will love how it works the imagination without creating a giant mess. It even helps cleans up after itself: Over time the light drawings magically disappear from the glow canvas, making room for more glow-in-the-dark works of art! The perfect poster size for creating and displaying drawings, the glow canvas hangs well from a wall or bedroom door. The darker the location, the better it is for glowing. Made from durable blue plastic, the top and bottom of the canvas provide spaces for everything, including stencil-sheet hooks and holders for the light wand, crystal tip, and stencil shapes. And when it's time to be put away, the canvas rolls up for easy storage. Start from Scratch or Take Some Pointers Packed with stencils and texture sheets, the Glow Station gives kids lots of places and ideas to start. Stencil sheets and shapes of animals and space objects let kids trace with the glowing light wand. With the light texture sheets, they can give these shapes -- and their own creations -- lifelike effects, like spider webs and exotic animal prints. Of course, it's also fun to use the light wand to make luminous freehand drawings. Or, with the crystal tip attachment, create sparkling stars. Ready, Set, Glow! The Crayola Glow Station stands out from ordinary glow-in-the-dark toys. Not only does it glow exceptionally well, but it encourages kids to play, use imagination, and create art in new ways. While the texture sheets give a cool dimension to stencil tracings, it's just as much fun -- and less cumbersome -- to draw freehand on the glow canvas. But with so many options, kids won't ever have to choose just one way to create with light. What's in the Box Glow station light canvas, light wand with crystal attachment, 2 stencil sheets, 13 stencil tracer shapes, and 2 light texture sheets.
