The Glo Pals Light-Up Character is a water-activated sensory bath toy that glows when placed in water. Each character comes with two removable Glo Pals Light-Up Cubes that fit into the character, creating a bright coloured glow for visually engaging bath and water play.
Simply insert a Light-Up Cube into the character and place it in water to watch it illuminate. The cube switches on automatically when it comes into contact with water and turns off again when removed and dried, making it easy for children to explore light, colour and simple cause and effect.
The character can also be used for imaginative play away from the water, while the removable cubes can be used independently in water play, sensory trays or other suitable supervised activities. Each Glo Pal has its own personality and distinctive glow colour, allowing children to choose a favourite character or collect several for colourful water play.
Glo Pals Light-Up Characters may be particularly appealing to autistic children, children with sensory processing differences and other children who actively enjoy visual sensory input.
The water-activated light provides an immediate and predictable visual response that may encourage engagement with bath time or water-based sensory activities. The removable cubes also allow the activity to be adapted according to the child’s interests, from simple illuminated water play to imaginative games involving the characters.
Individual sensory preferences vary, so the intensity and duration of light-up play can be adjusted according to the child.

Remove the Light-Up Cubes from water after use, shake off excess water and allow them to dry thoroughly to help preserve battery life.
