Glow Sticks Big Hit for 4th Of July Fireworks
 

At 4th of July fairs, there are vendors selling glow in the dark toys and during the fireworks show. These glow necklaces are a big hit for 4th of July.  The colorful lights of glow necklaces are like fireworks going on in your hands.  Kids spin them in circles and put on a light show.   To properly start a glow necklace, one needs to bend different and shake.  A connector is usually pre-attached to one end of the necklace.   Looking at glow bracelets under the lamp, you can easily catch sight of a very slim tube contained in the plastic tube.  The inner tube is even thinner and is easily broken.  You can break it by bending glow bracelets.   Glow necklaces are exactly the same only they are a bit longer.
