  • Publication number: 20130084547
    Abstract: An illuminated child's activity toy in which a housing is provided on which opaque drawing sheets can be mounted. The housing includes an illumination system that can be used to back-light the surfaces of the housing. Using a scraping tool, a child can remove the opaque material from the drawing sheet to reveal the illuminated base and optionally, a design which has been pre-printed on the drawing sheet. The illuminated toy can be viewed using 3D glasses to enhance the visual appearance of the toy. Additionally, the toy can be used as a customized nightlight of the child's own design. A novel child's activity toy is provided.
