Illuminate the dome to see your drawings come to life! View larger. |
Award-winning Design Winner of the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio (OTP) Gold Seal Award, the Crayola Glow Dome isn't your ordinary glow-in-the-dark toy. Kids create their own glowing creations, by drawing directly on the Glow Dome and center panel with the neon markers. With six brightly colored markers and two starter scenes to trace from -- or just to get the creative juices going -- there are endless possibilities for designing the dome. When done and ready, kids can turn out the lights in the room, and control the lights, speed, and rotation of their creations on the base of the dome.
Kids can trace or draw freehand with the neon markers onto both the durable plastic dome and the inside glow panel for a multicolored and multi layered glow-in-the-dark experience.
They can also change their display with different light and speed settings on the side of the dome. With a push of the spin-action button, the built-in motor rotates the dome at three separate speeds: slow, medium, or fast. Move the slider on the light feature to illuminate either the inner panel, the outer dome, both -- or have the light flash back and forth between them. Kids will love experimenting with the controls and changing up the amazing effects on their works of art.
Easy as Draw, Glow, Spin!
For a toy with so much exciting possibility, it's incredible how easy it is to begin playing with the Crayola Glow Dome. Once installing batteries, the glow dome base is ready to go with the addition of the inner panel and outer dome, which slide right into place. The only part that can be difficult is holding a starter scene to the inside of the dome while tracing it on the outside. It's easier using the tracing sheets on the inside panel, which lays flat, and drawing freehand on the dome. Once the ideas are flowing, kids may no longer even need to trace to bring inspiring scenes to life.
Cleanup is also a cinch. The two drawing surfaces wipe clean with a little water and cloth or paper towel. When they're all done, kids can tuck the markers away in two compartments on the glow base, making sure they don't get lost.
