William would always wake too early for us. He was good about it tho - if we told him it was still bedtime - he would go back to his room. Although we were getting exhausted at having to tell him this.

So we bought this. I thought it was pricey but was fed up with the early mornings.

Anyway - we have had it 5 mornings. The last 2 mornings - William has slept in until Mike starts showering! It is a great product! William loves watching the sun change to the star and more importantly - he must be waking early and then going back to sleep! It's great! We are all happier beause we are getting more sleep!

I know it is a very gimmicky product and not cheap either (although Boots often do 20% off of it!) but for my son - it really works!

Ahh glad it works hun, i think it looks great.
Def ideal for the lil ones that tend to get up very early. x

Just thought I would update this!

It still is a great product! However - it only took a few months for William to realise that the sun would rise at a certain time and so he began to watch it and wait for it the sun to rise rather than go back to sleep! However - it still keeps him in his room, in bed, quiet until the sun rises so it is much better than him getting up and playing at 5 when he wakes!

We got one of these Jenn and it's not really made any difference to Ben's getting up time I'm afraid! He likes to set it and if he wakes in the night and it's getting slightly light outside it's good for showing him it's not yet morning by counting how many stars are left but he gets up and out of bed before it turns yellow!! Oh well.....we tried. Will see if Joshua responds better to it when he is older!
