Moon Dreamers is a short lived Hasbro TV show and toy line from the 80s. The show aired along side My Little Pony and Friends for a time, each show being 15 minutes long together they filled up a 30 minutes time slot. [1]
Moon Dreamers toys and accessories are often mistaken as from the My Little Pony line. The dolls were the same scale and just about the same mold as Megan and Molly and as such their clothing was nicely interchangeable. Their hair and decals on their outfits would temporarily glow in the dark after being exposed to a bright light source.
Doll hair and decals glow in the dark
The hair pick accessories that came with the toys used the same mold as the pick that came with Petite Ponies, except they glow-in-the-dark and are pearly in color.

Little children know a wonderful secret: the universe is divided into three parts – Starry Up, Monstrous Middle and Down (the place we call Earth)! The Moondreamers live high above us in Starry Up. Besides making the stars shine and the moon glow, they send us happy dreams full of fun and adventure. In the center if Starry Up is Dream Central, home of the Moondreamers and the amazing Dream Machine. With the help of the Dream machine and imaginationcombination (the stuff dreams are made of), the Moondreamers fill magic crystals with special dreams and send them to sleepy children on Earth. A dream will come true when the contents of a dream crystal match a child’s secret wish.
But, between Earth and Starry Up is monstrous Middle, where Evil Scowlene lives. Deep in the Castle of Insomnia, Evil Scowlene grumbles and growls because she’s never slept a wink in her life. She wants to steal the amazing imaginatiomcombination and destroy Starry Up so that everyone will be as cranky as she is! She and her nasty helpers, the Sleep Creeps, replace dream crystals with nightmares to wake up sleeping children. But the Moondreamers’ little helpers – the Snoozers – come to the rescue by sliding to Earth on a moonbeam and soothing the children back to sleep, where happy dreams await!
