Folks, this one glows! It's the Crayola Light Up Tracing Pad in pink, the perfect gift for kids six and up who love to draw. Welcome to Wishlist After Dark, I'm Penny! Marty Dazzle's already shining brighter than the pad, and Sunny, our happiest art fan, is here too. Hi everyone! Penny, I've been bouncing in my chair waiting for this one. Thanks, Penny! Okay, here's the magic. Kids lay a picture under the paper, the pad lights it up from below, and they trace their very own version.

And then they color it in! Marty, that means even a winged unicorn turns into something they drew all by themselves. Wait, a unicorn with wings? Sunny, I'm sold! And Crayola packs a whole kit in the box. Look at this list. One pad, twelve short colored pencils, ten tracing sheets, ten blank sheets and a graphite pencil. Picture tearing that open at a birthday party! But wait, there's more! It's not just pink, folks.

It also comes in blue and teal. Ooh, so siblings could each get their own color! Uh oh, Penny, you've got your fine print face on. I do. Here's the catch. Buyers say the pencils in the box are the short ones, so keep a few full size pencils handy. Short pencils? Penny, little hands love little pencils! Nice try, Marty. Also, the batteries aren't listed on the pages we checked, so look at the listing before you wrap it.

Good tip! And it's for ages six and up, so think school-age artists, not toddlers. Okay, scores time. Marty, you first. Eight point two! Any kid can trace a picture and make it their own. Seven point eight from me, because the whole kit comes right in the box! I'm at seven point two, for the short pencils and the battery question. That's an After Dark Score of seven point seven out of ten, just below the magna-tiles set on our toy board.

You heard her, folks, it's a buy for kids six and up who love to draw! The link's on our site and in the description. See you next time!
