    I liked that this has an alarm so my daughter used it when she was 8 and learning to get up in the morning for school Feb 24, 2024

  • Didn’t work for us. Feb 08, 2024

  • It likely works for some children, but it did not work for my kids. They kept unplugging it, and I'd have to reset everything all over. Oct 17, 2022

    This thing is the only way I could get my oldest to understand that he can't just get up whenever he wants. It is so helpful for kids to have a visual and this this is perfect! Dec 24, 2021

  • My daughter was waking multiple times a night asking "When is it time to wake up?" With this alarm clock she knows when the light is green she can get up. Mommy life saver! Dec 21, 2021

    After using this product for a while, it seems that the buttons are faulty. We have to adjust the time constantly, which means setting up the wake-ups multiple times/month. Nov 30, 2021

  • My 2.5 yr old started waking up at 5am for multiple weeks. This changed our life. She understood that if it wasn’t green and awake that she needed to play quietly or try to go back to sleep. Jun 09, 2021

  • This has been working for all of my kids since they were moved into big beds around 3 years old. My 8 year old still uses her. They all follow the rule of staying in bed until the clock is green. May 05, 2021

  • Used this to sleep train a nanny kid years ago. Works really well! Feb 04, 2021

  • Before using this my 2.5y.o. was waking up every hour (like her newborn brother).Now she only comes in our room 1-2 times/night if that and goes right back to bed (on her own) bc it isn't green yet. Sep 09, 2020

  • Works for my son- he knows to stay in bed til his light turns green :) Jul 07, 2020

  • This was a gift and I held off using it for months but my toddler loves it. And knows it’s time to get out of bed when it turns. May 14, 2020

  • My kids love this clock! It has been an awesome item! I love that my little one who cannot tell time can still have some direction and participation with knowing when to get up Apr 27, 2020

  • Bought this but realized the Hatch is better for our needs. Apr 23, 2020

  • I think the clock is great and easy to set and I LOVE the concept. Unfortunately it did not work for my daughter, but I that's more her fault. Feb 03, 2020

  • We started training with this early for my difficult sleeper. He occasionally doesn’t wait to the green light but overall it has revolutionized his sleep and therefore mine haha! Jan 06, 2020

  • One of my favorite kid products! So So great to help with transition to big kid bed. You set the time to let the kid know when it is ok to wake. Genius. Dec 28, 2019

  • This helped keep my daughter in her bed. Wish it was more durable. My daughter wanted to play with it and ended up breaking it. Sep 05, 2019

  • This has been a life saver for us! Make sure to make a big production about it. We do a sticker chart that earns our daughter treats. I only wish you could have some controll by an app. Apr 16, 2019

  • Perfect clock for little ones who struggle to stay in bed. The light is perfect for children who cannot tell time yet but know not to come out of their rooms until their light comes on! Must have! Mar 04, 2019

    • TIz D.

    • Royal Oak, Michigan

    Our newly independent 3 year old absolutely loves this clock and is SO good about staying quietly in bed until the light turns on. It's a little confusing to program, but it works like a charm! Jan 28, 2019

  • Helped my son understand time Jan 16, 2019

  • My 7 yr old still uses hers and I have a feeling we will be buying a third for our youngest. They can be set for quiet time and being a homeschooler that is a must with 3! Jan 03, 2019

  • My son was so excited to get this for Christmas! Still working on getting used it but have loved it so far! Jan 02, 2019

  • Super easy to use, fun design, and you can even set it for nap time. You have the option of an alarm or the light glowing when it's time to wake up, we use light. Everyone's getting better sleep here! Aug 21, 2018

    • L D.

    • Columbia , South Carolina

    This is so great once you transition to a bed! Feb 07, 2018

  • BEST purchase we have made in a long time! Our daughter (then 3, now 4) picked up immediately on when she was allowed to get up, and really loves the clock! The nap and nightlight functions are great! Jan 23, 2018

  • Love this clock! great for waking up Dec 05, 2017

  • My 2yo would wake up and expect to be entertained WAY too early. It took only 2 or 3 days to teach him mommy or daddy come when the light turns on and not before. No more early hollering! Oct 25, 2017

  • Worked like a charm for a few months. Now our 4 year old comes and asks why it's not green yet lol She's recognizing numbers now though so we're learning to switch to reading time/number Sep 14, 2017

  • game changer. i'm sure not for every kid, but for my 4 year old "rules kid", it's AMAZING. both for morning waking and naptimes. Jul 06, 2017

  • Works for the 3.5 year old! That's a winner. Jun 01, 2017

    • Laura M.

    • Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

    This worked for our son but only from about age 3.5-4.5 Before that he's too young and after that he's too smart. It functions well if the concept works for your child. May 05, 2017

    This is amazing! I would recommend it to parents of any toddler that is having difficulty sleeping through the night. It worked wonders in our house! Aug 16, 2016

  • My two year old waits for the green light to come out of his room now and it's a LIFESAVER. No more waking up the rest of the house at 5 am because he thinks it's time to get up. Apr 08, 2020

  • Brilliant! Wish I had found this sooner! Mar 05, 2020

  • I really did not think this would work but after the first time we tried it my two-year-old started staying in bed. We ended up upgrading to the one you can control with your phone but this was great. Feb 14, 2020

  • Great simple clock. We use the colors to signal when its time to wake up. Easy to program and easy to use and SUPER CUTE :) Aug 10, 2019

  • We have these in each of the kids' rooms. I like that it glows green when its time to get up and its quiet, but also can help the kids learn to tell time. Oct 20, 2018

    • Erin H.

    • Eagle Mountain, Utah

    It took awhile for my girls to get used to it but now they know not to get out of bed until it lights up-it’s has bought me a lot of time in the mornings! I love this and totally recommend it Oct 16, 2018

    • Jenn K.

    • Colorado Springs , Colorado

    Cute but was bright so it woke up child if he wasn't awake when it went off. Like the changeable faceplates. Wish setting it were easier. Jun 24, 2017

  • We just started using this clock. SO far so good. Little has learned how he loves the light and to turn it off by himself. Nov 29, 2016

  • Amazing for the 3 y/o! The 2 y/o doesn't quite get it yet, and since they share a room it's hit or miss. But when it was only the 3y/o it was amazing! Aug 23, 2016

  • This has been a LIFESAVER! My son used to get up multiple times too early but not anymore! Can't live without this. Jan 31, 2016
