Philips and Disney Present Playtime In A New Light

StoryLight_3croppedBright, playful lighting is a visual detail that not only lends itself to creating a fun environment for kids but can also have a positive impact on their mood and overall well-being.

With this in mind, Philips and Disney have co-designed a line of innovative lighting products that little ones can use to stimulate imagination and creativity. The Philips and Disney Imaginative Lighting product line combines favorite Disney characters with advanced LED lighting concepts that are safe and easy for children to use, making playtime an even more magical experience!

Available in Princess and Cars designs, LivingColors Micro has a range of 64 vibrant colors that are easy to select–all it takes is the simple slide of a finger using the on-product control. It’s lightweight and compact and makes for the perfect playroom accessory. LivingColors Mini Mickey & Minnie features two of Disney’s most beloved characters along with 256 bright hues, any of which can be chosen by using the touch-sensitive color wheel. For both items, kids can pick a single tone to set the scene or put it on automatic color-changing mode and watch the room transform. The two products use soft, diffused light and are designed with safety in mind. The lamps stay cool to the touch even after hours of continuous use, while an adjusted lens helps to prevent any glare. They can be used to illuminate an entire room or to give an infusion of colorful light to a smaller space, like a tent or a pillow fort.

The adorable, Mickey Mouse-shaped Philips/Disney Friends of Hue StoryLight works together with a variety of classic Disney e-books available on the iPad, turning storytime into an unbelievable adventure. With the turn of each page, the StoryLight syncs and changes color to create a new ambiance. Kids can also use their fingertips to select any spot on the page, and the StoryLight will instantly pick up the corresponding color. With a spectrum of 16 million different colors, the StoryLight is available as a starter pack, which contains everything needed to begin, or a single pack, which is perfect for those who already have the starter pack or the Philips Hue and want to add another light. With an option for the story to be read aloud, it makes for a fantastic storytime companion.
