We have to hand it to Growing A Jeweled Rose – this was a very original idea. And guess what, it’s a lot of fun for kids and adults alike! While it’s a little messier than some of the other projects in this article, it’s so much fun that we couldn’t help but recommend it. Not for the faint hearted, but certainly worth a go.

Another twist on the glowing lantern, this variation produces a very cool pattern within the lantern. Personally, it’s my favorite project in this list. What’s particularly cool about this one is that it’s deceptively simple. All you need are a few glow sticks, a jar, and you’re good to go.

Not only do glow in the dark rocks look cool, they genuinely do help to mark out a path in your garden. We love the organic shapes which feel more natural than traditional garden lights. Glowing rocks also make for some very fun night time treasure hunt games!

While you are at it, you can also tell the captivating story of the Bologna Philosopher’s Stone and how phosphorescence (glow in the dark) was first discovered in a rock in 1604.

Another clever idea from KiwiCo, these firefly jars are easy to make and look great. Even as an adult it’s hard to not become hypnotized by the funky patterns at night. Much easier than catchy actual fireflies – why not give it a try?

Glow In the Dark Masks

Masks are great fun for any kids, but adding glow in the dark paint really takes it to another level. I’ll actually admit that my kid really startled me when he tapped me on the shoulder wearing one while we were watching TV. What’s more – there’s plenty of flexibility to take this idea in any direction so it works great with girls and boys.
