Who would like this?: Kids of all ages

Children can be surprisingly hard to buy for at Christmas. Once you take into account what Santa Claus is planning to drop down the chimney, you may not find yourself with many options.

We think we've found the ideal gift for kids of all ages — the Boon Glo night light. It's perfect for younger children struggling to overcome their fear of the dark, or for older kids who want to extend "lights out" time.

We can all remember the comforting power of a night light. The Boon Glo takes this concept and adds some cool tech to make for some innovative illumination. While we can't promise getting them into bed will be any easier, we're sure all kids will be excited to turn on the Glo for an evening.

The three-pronged Glo has removable balls that work as portable night lights. With no electronics in the balls themselves, the phosphorescent spheres are safe to handle, don't get hot and are sturdy enough for little hands.

The color the balls emit can be changed using a sliding lever, so you can let little ones pick their favorite shade, or you can choose to keep the hues circulating through the spectrum.

Younger children will find the magical balls the perfect protection against closet monsters, while older kids can smuggle them under the covers for some illicit bedtime reading.

The best part is that after around 30 minutes, the light from the balls gradually fades, so the illumination won't keep them awake all night.
