By now I'm sure you all know of my frustration with Kenzie's sleeping habits. I need to get her into her own bed for the entire night before Bean #2 comes because (according to my brother) she will resent me if she gets kicked out the moment he arrives. My Tot Clock is a fun sleep-aid, alarm clock, nightlight and timer all-in one!
The setup is pretty simple in that you just need to set your current time on both the analog and digital clocks, set bedtime/naptime with your sound options (I did the lullabies), set wake time, set encouragement time, and set discipline time. I didn't set the last two and just started off with the sleeping training. My Tot Clock uses 4 AA batteries (not included) or the included AC plug. I decided to go with the batteries because Kenzie wanted to carry around her clock. Let's just say I won't be keeping up with the batteries due to expense.
Kenzie likes the music and the story voice is very soothing. I also like that the face of the clock changes colors according to the "time" to allow Kenzie to associate bedtime, naptime, wake time. The standard included facebook features a nightime motif with stars and the moon. One can purchase additional decorative faceplates to fit their child's personality. There are also several different Tot Clock Treasures i.e. stories and lullabies that one can purchase to give variety to the standard routine. My Tot Clock comes standard with "Welcome to Children's Dreamland".
My Tot Clock is placed at the foot of Kenzie's bed so she can hear and see the clock but it's not directly in her face. The other day was actually successful in the bedtime routine but she woke up around 12:30 p.m. and back to my arms..sigh. I am going to keep trying somewhat diligently to get her into a routine where she sleeps soundly in her bed and I get to get a semi good night's rest!

ReplyDeleteI love that the display changes colors for each setting! Playtime is whatever color, bedtime another, etc. It would make it much easier to associate the time with the activity - especially for my 3 yr old who doesn't know all his numbers/times yet! =)
