Glowbear

You know how kids sometimes fall in love with the most ridiculous toys that you would never in a million years think that they would care about? Let me introduce you to Glowbear.

Glowbear is a little 5" tall plastic bear that glows. He is neat and portable. He runs on AAA batteries and can be carried from room to room when it's dark. He also has a built in timer, so after about an hour he will turn himself off, which is plenty of time for a little girl to fall asleep.

Maddy got him for her birthday in January and was charmed on sight. She loved that he glowed. She loved that she could turn him on and off easily and carry him around with her at night when she had to use the bathroom. And she just loved him.

Glowbear is now an active part of the family. Ash makes him grumble and walk and give her a kiss before bed. Then Glowbear sits on her pillow while she sleeps. Ash and I can always tell if she has woken up during the night because we will walk by and see her sleeping and Glowbear glowing away on her pillow. And when she has a bad dream and comes to sleep in our room, Glowbear comes too and I wake up to a gentle glowing light that wasn't there before.

We love him because Maddy loves him and he's worth all the batteries he goes through!
