Abstract: A novelty umbrella for a child that includes a rod, a frame, and a cover. The rod has a pair of handles that extend radially outwardly from its proximal end and are shoe-like and a pair of hands that extend radially outwardly from its midpoint and are arm-like. The frame includes a plurality of ribs pivotally mounted to the rod. The cover includes a plurality of panels, each of which extends as a web between a pair of adjacent ribs, is made from a glow-in-the dark material for allowing the child to be more safely visible to traffic, and is provided with a transparent portion for allowing the child to see through the cover without having to lift it up.
