Grab yourself a few black lights and black light reactive materials and you have yourself a GLOW Week in STEAM! You’d be surprised what in your room already glows under black lights. I did purchase a few things and have some more items in my Amazon cart for next year.
There’s no slide deck for this challenge. I only used a Classroomscreen page with a timer, clock, and an image I created in Canva. You can grab the image here. The Amazon list is here — it is NOT an affiliate link list. =)
Ideas of things that glow:
Transparent Neon LEGO
Neon Decorations and Tape
Fluorescent Highlighters, Crayons, Color Pencils, Markers, Paint
Slinkies
Neon Beads and Yarn
Purple Light Keychain LED Mini Flashlights
Glow in the Dark Magna tiles
Glow in the Dark Marbles
Glow in the Dark Marble Runs (Transparent Neon Parts/Pieces)
Magna tiles (Transparent Neon Parts/Pieces)
Neon Plastic Cups
Glow in the Dark Puzzles
Glow in the Dark Hot Glue Gun Sticks

Next year I plan to try a few new items:
Glow in the Dark Hot Wheels
Doodle Boards
