It's neat, but I don't know how much we'll actually use it. I prefer a regular nightlight, so it pretty much just sits on a shelf. It's cute, though. :) 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Customer Rating:  Summary: Twilight Turtle 2008-04-20 Comment: Excellent product. I bought this for my six month old- at this point I get more enjoyment out if it, but I know that she will once she is a bit older. I turn the turtle on, put on some music and create the most calming environment. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Customer Rating: Summary: Education & Comfort Same Package! 2008-04-19 Comment: My three-year old nephew has been fascinated with my Homestar Personal Planetarium, but it is an advanced product--not for tiny people or fingers to explore. It occurred to me that I needed to find him his very own, "touchable" planetarium that he could learn to care for and use, perhaps enhancing further interest in the night sky and astronomy. Therefore, I was delighted to find this product on Amazon, and after reading the various reviews, I decided that this was the right item to buy. And it was! :) The Twilight Turtle is a unique and happy product--doesn't the world need more of those? With its smooth star-studded shell, soft changeable lights, gentle, sleepy appearance, and its big activation buttons, it has appeal for young children (like my nephew) as well as adults. One of the things I consider when I buy something is the in-box / out of box experience. I found the Twilight Turtle's packaging to be of EXCELLENT, eye-catching quality, and the design makes one feel like he / she has truly purchased a special, lovable item---worthy of showing, keeping, sending, sharing, and gifting. In fact, the box itself is definitely worth keeping for future turtle storage or travel. When one first sees Twilight Turtle in the box, one sees him sitting on a bed of pond rocks under a peaceful starry night. (The toy's sweet expression is one of pleasant repose.) I was most impressed with the notation that the product had been individually hand painted, which offers an intriguing human touch not found in most items today. Immediately, I had a good feeling that the "Sleep Sheep & Friends: Soothing the Senses for Better Sleep" products were genuine, finely-crafted, multi-purpose toys that offer both comfort and learning. Removing Twilight from the box was easy--not frustrating as some toys are today with all their many plastic twist ties, and activating Twilight was even easier. :) He came with a clever story to tell, and he was prepared to shine his lights for eager eyes. He wasn't too heavy for a child to hold or too big to overwhelm; his size was just right. The guide booklet's information was fun to read, and it enhanced the creative and educational aspects of the toy. Easy-to-find and easy-to-use buttons make the turtle accessible to various ages and stages. All three light colors seemed pleasing to our eyes--with the amber one being the dimmest / most restful, the blue being in the middle of intensity, and the green / emerald being the brightest. Thus, the user can modify his / her starry night for various "moods" of slumber, which is a feature that we liked. Unlike the Homestar Planetarium, Twilight's stars do NOT move, and he has just eight constellations; however, these features were fine for our purposes---a simple, comforting product to encourage a little one to go to his own room for wonder, rest, and sleep. As a night light, Twilight is truly a stellar product--pun intended! :) Champion of the little sleeper, the turtle chases away total darkness, anxiety, stress, and fear; he instills peace, confidence, joy, and curiosity. Though it seems targeted to children, I can see how this same product might also aid adults who need comfort, mood-setting, and sleep-help. (Most especially, for sick, injured, or otherwise, stressed adults!) As an educational toy, the turtle can teach (if adults model important lessons) the following: 1. Respect for a nice, personal object / property--no throwing, hitting, or mistreating the turtle 2. Gentleness, ownership, and care-taking ( Certificate of Adoption is included with Turtle! ) 3. Vocabulary: Sensory details, Connections, & Colors--"Twilight" "Amber" "Blue" Green" "Constellation" "Shell" "Head" Legs" "Tail" "Belly," "Fuzzy," "Smooth," "Hard," "Soft," etc. 4. Counting: to Seven & Shapes ( Shell Segments ); Counting Stars; Grouping 5. Concepts: on / off; big / little; near / far; day / night; 45 minute timer, etc. 6. Imagination: Storytelling about Twilight's family and pond adventures; Storytelling related to the constellations; creative storytelling individualized for child 7. Beginning mythology and science: Who is Orion? Where do real turtles live? 8. Healthy sleep / bedroom habits Order Twilight Turtle, and he will transform your rooms and your heart. :) 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Customer Rating: Summary: Twilight Turtle is very cool! 2008-04-18 Comment: I bought this because I just loved the idea of stars on the ceiling and for $30 its a great way to achieve that. The turtle is adorable and once its DARK the lights really shine. Blue looks the brightest though. My only complaint is that I wish it had an adaptor or bigger batteries and it should have an AUTOMATIC TIMER. I would love to be able to just walk away and let it shut off on its own. Would recommend this product for 3+. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: Customer Rating: Summary: Best Baby Gift 2008-04-07 Comment: I gave this to my friend's little girl on her 2nd birthday and she is absolutely in love with it. The colors and the stars really spark her imagination and she refuses to go to sleep without it and even sings an unrecognizable little song to the turtle every night, its soooo cute. I'm going to give this gift over and over again to every child's' birthday party I go to, it's a HUGE hit. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
