Description
This box of 25 glow in the dark stick-on shapes brings a small, friendly alien invasion to a child's bedroom. The design gathers flying saucers with a row of portholes around the rim, round alien heads with big dark almond eyes and a little frown, and full-length aliens raising one hand in a cheery wave. Every piece is cut from flat plastic in a pale green-white that looks soft and milky by day. The shapes measure up to 7.5cm long and 4.5cm wide and are just 0.2cm thick, so they sit almost flat and read clearly from across the room without crowding a wall.
We like them on a bedroom wall or across a door, where they turn bedtime into a bit of a space mission. To get them glowing, leave the shapes under a light source for a while, whether a lamp or the daylight from a window; then, when the lights go out, the saucers and their crew glow in the dark. Arranging them is half the fun. Try a fleet of saucers sweeping across the top, heads scattered in between like stars, and the waving aliens lined up along the bottom as if they have just landed to say hello.
A sheet of 25 double-sided sticky foam pads comes in the box, so there is nothing extra to buy before the first alien lands. The shapes themselves are plastic (PE), and the pads are made from foam, adhesive and paper. For the best hold, press each pad onto a clean, dry, smooth surface and hold the shape in place for a moment. To keep them looking crisp, dust them now and then with a soft dry cloth. Lay the whole scene out on the floor first, then stick it up in one go; as a small gift, the box is an easy one to wrap.
