Dread bedtime power struggles?
Is your child misbehaving at bedtime? Is bedtime a nightmare? Toddlers are known for stalling and requesting at bedtime. These behaviors immediately create power-struggle energy and can make bedtime complicated and long. I bet you are tired of coming up with consequences for bedtime battles?
Toddlers love to "feel in control", but they also thrive on routines and boundaries. One way to minimize power struggle and create an age-appropriate boundary is to introduce sleep-to-wake clocks, especially when working with kids 2 years and older.
These tot clocks are a great way to reinforce kids staying in their room until morning. The nights can seem endless if your child is constantly asking you if it's time to get up yet. With the features of these clocks, if kids can recognize colors, they can tell if it's time to get up! Avoid that power struggle and give your kids the control!
What do I think is the best ok-to-wake clock?
A magical all-in-one device that's part sound machine, night light, & time-to-rise features
This is an incredible combination for teaching your child lifelong healthy sleep habits because I always recommend white noise for nights and naps. This one product works from birth and up so no need to keep buying new products.
The Sleep-to-wake feature allows you to program sounds and colors to indicate whether it's sleep time or time to get up. You set the times, colors, sounds and duration. Totally custom!
The app makes it so easy to setup and make changes as your child grows.
This product can be used as a night light (with adjustable brightness). With a quick tap, it can help make middle of the night diaper changes a breeze in the early days and can help with the fear of the dark as they get older.
