Our Lifelights and Wildlights are wildly popular with kids and adults alike! But they're not just a fun toy; there are also many creative uses for these critter flashlights. We have some suggestions but use your imagination!
1. Are you a doctor's office a children's hospital, a paramedic, a pediatrician or an ENT? Do you need to examine scared or anxious children? Clip a T-rex carabiner flashlight around a lanyard and use it to examine the kiddo's ears, nose and throat. What kid doesn't like dinosaurs? And, who knows, they just might look forward to their next visit. (Or if you're really feeling wild, and want to make them laugh, you could always try one of our Dinosaur headlamps!
2 Lose something in your bag? It's okay, it happens to the best of us! Clip one of our Lifelights or Wildlights onto your key chain so you have instant light in a pinch. (Sorry but we can't help you if you lose your keys... yet!)
3. Sunrise hike? Or how about a sunset hike? Either way, you're going to be trekking through the dark. You can wear your grown-up headlamp, but make sure to give your kids some animal flashlights to provide light and courage!
4. Whether it's an impromptu blanket fort, camping in your backyard, or actual camping in the wilderness, you need a light source. Whip out one of our animal key chains and tell a ghost story! Or just a bedtime story. (Check out Real Simple for some great blanket fort ideas! By the way, our Dino headlamps have been featured in that fabulous magazine!)
5. Play some flashlight games. Games are fun for both kids and adults and will keep kids entertained for hours.
6. Give some animal flashlights to your kids if you lose power during a summer storm. It's a lot less scary in the dark when you have your beloved golden retriever (flashlight) with you. Bonus: this dog doesn't get scared of thunder!
7. Keep one on your bedside table and use it to guide you to the bathroom in the middle of the night. Much less intrusive than those pesky nightlights that stay on all the time.
8. Is your kid like your shadow, following you around when you're trying to repair your car or look at the plumbing under the sink? Put them to work and have them light the area up with a Lifelight or Wildlight. As Mary Poppins famously said, "In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. You find the fun, then, SNAP! The job's a game!"
9. Going on a trip to Cave of the Winds or any other cave tours in Colorado? If you're not, you should! And you should absolutely get your kids some allosaurus flashlights ... because what's cooler than dinosaurs AND caves?If you don't already have these, you can buy them through retailers like REI, EMS, or LL Bean. If you don't have a retailer near you, you can always purchase them directly through our website.
