Artful, Soothing and Educational
The winner of several industry awards, including the Editor's Choice blue ribbon from Baby Talk, each Twilight Turtle is individually hand painted for a unique, artful look that complements any nursery or children's room. Plush and soft, with a sturdy plastic shell, this nightlight is best placed on the floor in the center of the room, where it projects a starry night sky onto the ceiling and walls. For interactive fun, parents can also sit with their children and identify and describe the features of eight major constellations, including the Big Dipper and the Big Bear, with the help of the beautifully illustrated Star Guide. The Twilight Turtle also includes a warm-hearted story about how Twilight Turtle, separated from his father, uses the constellations to find his way home. User-Friendly Operation
Simply pressing the button on the turtle's shell ignites the stars and keeps them glowing for a full 45 minutes--just enough time for most children to drift into sleep. At this point, the Twilight Turtle automatically shuts off to preserve battery life. Another push of the button reactivates the projection. In addition, the easy selection of the three soothing color choices allows your child not only to learn to identify different colors, but also to truly experience them as well. Amber radiates warmth and peace; green creates a healing and renewing atmosphere; and blue helps calm the senses. The soft, illuminating glow the Twilight Turtle emits also serves as a nightlight that makes the darkness less frightening.
Makes a Great Gift
A great gift for children who are afraid of the dark, or even adults who have trouble falling asleep, the Twilight Turtle runs on three "AAA" batteries (included). It also comes with a certification of adoption, and measures a compact 14.0 x 5.0 inches (WxH), so it's easy to display and store.

Baby Products Reviews of Cloud b Twilight Constellation Night Light, Turtle
Customer Review: Education & Comfort Same Package!
Summary: 5 Stars
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. :)
