Product description
The item consists of a Glow Station tablet, light wand, 1 stencil sheet, 6 stencil tracer shapes and 1 light texture sheet. In a darkened room, children can create luminous freehand drawings or they can use the stencils to create shapes, textures or scenes by pressing the battery-operated light wand on the surface of the Glow Station tablet. The darker the room, the brighter the drawings and designs will glow. Holding the wand at different distances from the tablet surface will create different effects. The drawings “magically” disappear to allow repetitive use of the item. The “Glow Station On the Go” is designed for the frivolous amusement of children ages 6 and up and is not comparable to ordinary drawing equipment or intended for practical use. The sample is being retained by this office for reference purposes.
