Thought you couldn’t catch shadows!? Well now you can with this Shadow Magic Light Blaster and Glow screen.

Then all that’s left to do is get creative and draw on your captured shadow with the built-in pen light. This is high-tech shadow fun. Great for family use at home or in the classroom for something different to help your students learn about the principles of light and shadows.

What you get

Shadow Magic by Uncle Milton. Requires 2 x AA batteries (not included).

Features:

  • 58 x 71cm Shadow Catcher Glow Screen;
  • Dual-mode light blaster strobe (manual/auto flash) with built-in pen light;
  • Door clip screen hanger.

How does it work?

Just like real shadows, when an object blocks the blast of light emitted from the strobe a shadow forms on the glow screen behind. But instead of disappearing when the light is gone the special phosphorescent screen is able to capture the shadow and hold it temporarily. This allows you to really enjoy your shadow and add some creative touches like lines, words and pictures using the light pen. Let your imagination run wild and create some really whacky fun shadows using all sorts of things, or create shadow scenes and stories. After a few minutes or so, and after you have finished enjoying your original piece of shadow art, the image fades ready for a new creation. You can always make a permanent copy of really special pieces by taking a photo! Shadow Magic has been getting fantastic reviews around the world and is a really unique, inventive, fun and educational product.
