Thanks in advance!

I can't link it directly because I'm on my phone but search for "green laser pointer" on eBay and buy the first one that has a green battery.

There is also a constant on switch version.

It depend on what you mean by "daylight". If it is in direct sunlight you may need more power to see it than a 301 or 303 style laser. Otherwise, these are a very inexpensive choice.

I used my 303 type laser to test this in the morning with full force direct sunlight beating down with the sun just risen and I could see the dot all the way across my backyard some 30 meters away.

Try in at noon on the sidewalk when the sun is in a cloudless sky. You may find it is not so visible then. It really DEPENDS on what is meant by "daylight".
