Glow-in-the-dark Star Mobile

My son gets really excited about seeing the stars at night. But since we're in a relatively urban area with lots of light pollution we don't get to see to many of them at night. About 2 or 3 from his room, that is. So I decided that what he could use is a starry mobile that glows in the dark to hang in his room. So even on overcast nights there will still be a few stars to look at.

I have always love d stars and to try capture their beauty in my home and in the rooms of my Grandchildren. Is there a different color other than green, I was thinking blue ?

The greenish yellow color is the color of the glow-in-the-dark paint. Can't really get away from that.
