Abstract
A glow-in-the-dark toy kit includes a light emitting device configured to be controlled by a first player. The light emitting device is configured to emit a wavelength of light around 405 nanometers from a light emitting diode powered by a power source. A light receiving device is associated with the light emitting device and configured to be worn by a second player. The light receiving device includes a phosphorescence layer reactive to the 405 nanometer wavelength of light. The devices are used in a dark environment allowing the 405 nanometer wavelength of light to react with the phosphorescence layer and display an imaginary or real impact when the first player uses the light emitting device to illuminate the light receiving device worn by the second player.
