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!

None of my little ones have thumbs, however I've seen others recommend the Convoy T3. Uses AA battery, comes in a lot of colors, inexpensive, and if you turn off mode memory and set it to group 9 it will start at 50% brightness and won't be able to get any brighter than that.
