Bike Into the Sunlight

Here’s a mesmerizing gift for solar power geeks and bike enthusiasts alike. The Solar Bicycle Rider Lamp is a striking object d’art that uses the sun to provide soft light and to bring life to the bicycle rider. The lamp has an adjustable solar panel that you can swivel to catch the sunlight (or any direct light source). Once the sun hits the panel, the little biker will start pedaling and with a 40W bulb inside, you’ll get some extra illumination in the room, too.

How’s that for showing off the power of the sun? Kids are bound to think this rider is amazing. Use it as a teaching moment–explain how solar power works, why it’s important and throw in a plug for biking over getting there by car while you’re at it.
