I'm still using these in my girls' rooms and lemme tell ya...they are the best blackout blinds I have ever used! You want to ensure your child's room is BLACK for sleep times as this helps their body produce melatonin aka the sleep hormone. This is a great long term, affordable option to do just that! They also keep out heat and cold- handy!
Get your Blackout EZ BlindsFinally something for the big kids! My two older girls (3 and 5) would call out "is it time to get up yet?!" every morning. Since they are too young to tell the time, a normal clock wouldn't do the trick. This handy little clocks turns green when it's GO TIME (time to put mom to work). I have it set to turn yellow 30 minutes before it's time to get up and they know they have to play quietly in their rooms until they get the green night light.

Get your Toddler ClockThe APP suggests we always place baby on their back for all sleep for the first year of life. Often times, babies will roll from tummy to back, then get stuck on their tummy. This is a great product to help keep baby on their back for sleep so they don't get stuck on their tummy.
Get your Merlin Magic SleepsuitSleep coach falls in love with sound machine!! I tried this machine in my own room and was hesitant to pass it up to my kids because I loved it THAT much! Using the SNOOZ app (compatible with IOS and Android) has the capability to do a nursery calibration to ensure the volume is not too loud. 5-star review from me!
Get your SNOOZNo need to worry about TOG ratings with this sleep sack! I also used this 4 season sleep sack from the time my girls outgrew their swaddles until I transitioned them to big girl beds (3 years old). It’s made out of merino wool so it regulates their body temps- keeping them warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
