4” tall realistic looking lightbulb. It is plastic with a plug and lid which can be used to place figures inside or anything that might need to be contained in a lightbulb. A container which can also hold liquid and possibly be used as a child made calming container. Just add tiny toys “orbees,” glitter and water. The ideas are endless. 

Light bulbs are most associated with a clever idea, and there’s a scientific reason behind it. When the human brain is active, it produces electrical currents caused by chemical reactions. These reactions occur in the tiny nerve cells found in the brain called ‘neurons’. Neurons are responsible for processing and transmitting information through chemical and electrical signals which they pass from one to the other at a speed of 420 km per hour. Once the brain processes the information and we have an insight, our brain lights up, much like a light bulb.

The light bulb is a popular symbol of innovation. As a motif, it’s used to represent the origination of a brilliant idea, a sudden insight or flash of understanding of how to achieve something, usually in a new or different way. Light bulbs are a symbol of intelligence. Light, in general, is associated with intelligence, wisdom, awareness, and the known, meanings which transfer to the light bulb as well. By switching on a light bulb, the dark becomes light, representing ignorance being dissipated by knowledge. 

Light bulbs are commonly regarded as symbols of creativity and problem solving. They represent a Eureka moment, signifying a sudden burst of inspiration.
