Heya illuminated fellows!

I’m looking for a flashlight for a 3 year old kid. So it shouldn’t look to boring, something colorful is appreciated. But mainly I’m not sure how many lumen are okay or maybe there are some with a fixed diffusor or similar?

I’m not too sure about what kind of battery I’d prefer, I guess in this case it doesn’t matter much.

Any experiences? Thanks!

    Thank you all for your thoughts. I found this one by varta https://www.amazon.de/Varta-lippenstiftförmige-Taschenlampe-Handtaschenlicht-Schlüsselanhänger/dp/B00TSXLQ0S/

    Handle glows in the dark and it outputs 19 lumen according to varta. Sounds low, but I’m aware it still requires supervised use. Which is fine I think. Swallowing parts isn’t much of an issue, the kid isn’t big on that. I’ll see if I can find it in a store so I can try how hard the button is to press

    My 4yo nephews likes to play around with one of my zebralights. They can be programmed to only have specified brightness levels available and last for months on low lumen level (depending on battery and brightness level obviously) But they are a little expensive

      Little bit of an understatement there. It’s not a bad option, though, considering it would be indestructible.
