For all our younger fans out there, or those with children, Spring Break is fast approaching.  And with that we here at The Party FAQ have a few suggestions on much needed items to help you make the most out of your fun:

First up are our Light Up Flip Flops, these things are awesome.  Wear them at night and every time you step you create a magical light show.  Or better yet if you’re an enterprising person buy a whole ton of them and sell them on the beach, and make a killing!

Next are our BRAND NEW Lighted glitter balls.  These things are HOT! shake the ball and you’ll see the glitter spin around.  Bounce the ball and you’ll get the glitter and BRIGHT LED’s illuminating not only the ball but off the glitter also.  This feeble description doesn’t do it justice, they are extremely neat and addicting.  So much so in fact that we’ll be creating a new youtube video on them.

Last but not least are our LED luminarias.  Create a lighted path to your beach home or hotel with these great items.  If you’re an arts and crafts family then you can decorate them as well!

All these items and more are available online at Windy City Novelties, Inc.

Halloween is coming sooner then anyone thought possible.  And with that comes all the decorations that are sure to help celebrate the season.  One of the coolest looking decorations is the luminaria, a type of illuminated paper bag that many people use to outline their front yard or walk way.  The only problem with these have been that in the past people have used candles to illuminate them and they’ve caught on fire…

Well no more!  Our luminaria packages all come with LED flicker candles, that way you get all the awesome look and feel of a real flame without any of the dangerous consequences.

What’s also a great treat is to have your children decorate the luminarias, it can even be a great cub scout / girl scout activity in that its simple, safe, and fun.

Safety and being prepared is a necessity of life.  Freak storms or other emergencies can appear out of no where.  Everyone has always been told to have matches, candles, and a flashlight in case of emergency.  But the problem with that is the fact that there could be a gas leak.  In a modern household you usually have a natural gas oven, a propane grill, and an automobile that all use highly flammable fuel.  Lighting a match could be a foolish thing to do if you haven’t investigated the area yet.  To first check if the area is safe use a Glow Stick.  They create no heat, have no flame, are waterproof (key if raining) and produce a lot of light.

Why not use flashlights or flares you ask? Simply put because both of these options emit either a spark or heat to generate their light, and since you don’t know if a gas line has been leaking or if its raining out this might not be the best of options.

Safety glow sticks are designed to be in storage for long periods of time while still retaining their ability to glow bright for hours. Easily used as signal lights, emergency lighting, or simply to keep the kids from getting too worried.

Please note that safety glow sticks are DIFFERENTLY FORMULATED from novelty glow sticks. They are made of higher quality chemicals to enhance not only the strength of the light but also storage ability and strength of the plastics.

And Safety sticks are also great for road control, especially with our Glow Cone accessory that easily attaches to standard orange safety cones.
