The Lumi-Niter Disc Kit includes a flying disc that can soar through the air, but it stands out with its bright colors and ability to glow in the dark. Each flying disc features a bright color--the Discs can be purchased in raspberry, yellow, green, orange, or white—that can make it more visible to the human eye. When the lights start to dim, visibility can brighten up using the 4 glow stick slots on every disk. Just crack the glowsticks to activate them and slip them into the slots to watch it streak across the night sky.
PlanToys has created a unique and space themed puzzle with their Stacking Rocket. In order to get the rocket ready for liftoff, children must build up the rocket using the large and colorful outer pieces as well as the small uncolored inner pieces—which are deisgned as different geometric shapes. Only with the inner and outer pieces properly arranged will the rocket be stable enough to place the astronaut and nose cone on for space travel. The puzzle is composed of 9 pieces total, and the toy is a certified sustainable wooden toy, using organic color and non-formaldehyde glue.
