Crayola Glow Station

The Glow Station is a flat, smooth surface made from glow-in-the-dark, light-sensitive material. It starts to glow when the lights go out and is your creations are made using the included 'light wand'. The light wand is shaped like a large pen and has a small light bulb at the tip. You can draw your own pictures or use the included stencils and texture sheets. I have heard that the drawn design will last anywhere from a minute to five, however, you can 'erase' any picture by simply exposing it to light.
