I was making some really cool decorations for our annual dance recital and was trying to come up with a way to make things glow in the dark. I had heard of some companies that sell neon glow sticks that I thought we could hang from some of the props. The girls were coming up with different ways to use them also.

One of the groups taped the neon glow sticks to their shoes and then as they danced in the dark and it was easy to keep up with their feet. They had also found glowing bracelets at a local dollar store that they had made into earrings and also wore.

I was proud of all of the groups for coming up with so many unique ways to use the neon glow sticks. The most creative group would have to be the one which used the sticks to throw back and forth during their dance. It took them a lot more coordination to be able to remember their dance steps and catch a flying object at the same time.

The deal we got on the neon glow sticks was so great that I think that I will have them to incorporate for many years to come. I also went to the dollar store and purchased all of the glowing bracelets that they had so I would have them in stock too.
