The Carry-Play can easily be turned into a light table simply by adding LED lights into the storage compartments.
If you want a clear, bright surface for tracing and writing activities, we highly recommend the white table lids, which can also be used as a dry-erase surface.

| For the best effect with even light distribution, we've found that wireless light bar or panels with a length of approximately 30-45cm (11-17") are the best. |
Amazon (AU)
(2 Pack) 54 LED Wireless Lights 32cm
(2 Pack) 120 LED Wireless Lights 30/40cm
Amazon (US)
(2 Pack) 54 LED Wireless Lights 12.5"
These lights come in a pack of 2 so they're the most economical option if you want to light up both sides of the table.
They come with two settings - Always On, and Motion Sensor - and also include 3 colour modes and 3 brightness levels.
Alternatives:
There are more affordable options at your local hardware store, but bear in mind that shorter or smaller lights will have less even light distribution and may create light "spots".
