 Peace at last August 30, 2010

Wow I'm so pleased we purchased this clock I heard lots about it but never thought it would be as good as this, our son has asd and this is a fantasic visual aid for sleep, it only took a few nights to get it right and now he knows the story inside out and does not come out of his room until the sun comes up on his clock he then comes into us to tell us the sun is up. Would recommend to anyone having trouble with early risers.

Well all I can say is that it didn't work with our wee one and although she knows that she isn't supposed to get up until the sun comes up she never lasts the pace and refuses to go back to bed even when the sun hasn't risen on the clock yet
 Great idea! August 22, 2010

The Gro-clock is a fantastic idea. My son is just under 2 and it's not been completely successful with him as I think he might be just that little bit too young to totally crasp the concept, but it has certainly gone a long way to helping. He loves saying night-night to the sun and hello to the star at bedtime and he gets happily into bed once he sees the star. In the morning it's a little more tricky...he will often still come into our room whenever he wakes up, but I take him straight back and tell him to wait til the sun comes up, which he 'usually' does. Ithen hear him running along the hallway shouting 'sun up'. I still have it set quite early at 6:30, but I'm going to try to add a few minutes on each day to gradually move him to 7:00 if I can!
Some reviews mentioned the light being too bright but I haven't had a problem, there are quite a few levels of brightness (as well as the light being completely off) and I have it set on the lowest, which is easy to view, but certainly doesn't light up his room much at all. The only 2 things I have to say against it (which aren't really that big a deal) are that I think it would work better from about 2 and a half up, and also it would be helpful if it could run on batteries too so that I could move it around the room or even take it camping! Otherwise a great product.

Would definitely recommend. Our boy had spent the short summer nights confused about why he wasn't allowed up when the sun rose at about 5am. The clock has been great as he now understands and waits for the sun on the clock to come up before coming through to wake us up!
Also, the clock gives off a lot of light. This is great for our boy because he does not like the dark so the clock is a perfect night light. However, if your child needed a dark room to sleep this could be an issue.
In summary, for us the clock was effective and we now get an extra hour or two of sleep in the morning. Well worth the money!
even a 2 year old gets it! August 15, 2010

We bought this clock for our 2 year old son thinking he wouldn't yet understand but it would be a nice addition to his room for later.
We were very surprised that he understood the principle of the clock within a week. Now when he wakes up ans askes to get out of bed, we ask if the sun is awake yet and he answers truthfully. If the answer is no he knows he's too early and can't get out of bed yet. If he wakes up and the sun is out, he yells mummy the sun is awake and he is alowed to get up.
So even a 2 year old gets it. The clock is easy to operate and a great night light.
The only thing we didn't taken into account is the British plug (we live in The Netherlands), but we found aa adapter to solve that.
I can only say: great buy!!!!
