Description
This night light plush toy has a softly glowing belly that projects stars and shapes drifting across the walls and ceiling, with six light colours you change by pressing the belly and three star motion settings, in brown bear, pink bear or white unicorn. It takes three AAA batteries.
A child who is frightened of the dark does not want a lamp, they want company. That is the gap this fills: it is a soft toy first, so it goes in the bed and gets held, and the light comes from inside the thing they are already cuddling rather than from a device across the room. The moving stars give them something to watch while they settle, and because the control is a press on the belly, a four year old can operate it themselves without calling out.

Why a Plush Night Light Works Better
-
It is a toy first - it gets held and taken to bed, which a plastic lamp does not.
-
Press the belly to change colour - the child controls it themselves, which is most of the reassurance.
-
Moving stars, not a static glow - something to watch is what actually settles a busy head.
-
Travels - it goes to a sleepover, a grandparent's house or a holiday, and the familiar light comes with it.
-
Three designs - brown bear, pink bear or white unicorn, so it suits the child rather than the room.
How Do You Change the Light Colour?
Press the belly. Each press moves to the next of the six colours, which is deliberately the simplest possible control so a young child can use it without help. The three star motion settings change how the projection moves.
What Batteries Does It Need?
Three AAA batteries, and they are not included. Buy them at the same time, because a night light that arrives on a birthday and cannot be switched on is a difficult evening. The battery compartment on toys of this type is screw-secured, as it should be.
Does the Projection Move?
Yes. There are three star motion settings, so the stars and shapes drift across the walls and ceiling rather than sitting still. A slow setting suits settling down; the faster ones are for playing with before lights out.
Who Buys These
Parents of children who have become afraid of the dark, which arrives suddenly somewhere around two or three and is the single most common reason these are bought. Grandparents keeping a comfort item at their house. Anyone buying a present for a three to eight year old who wants something that gets used every night rather than once. They also go into hospital bags, where a familiar light in an unfamiliar room does real work.
Pair It With
If you want the projection without the plush, our astronaut galaxy projector throws a much larger nebula effect. Our Toys & Games range has the rest of the kids' range, and Gifts for Kids is the place to browse if this is a present.
