Childrens Clock

Am I imagining that I have seen somewhere a clock which children can tell whether it is time to get up?
I thought I remembered something like a bunny would be asleeep then when it woke up the children knew it was ok to get up?

Or am I going totally mad with the 5am starts?

This does exist, but I'm told it's unreliable. As in, kids pick it up, shake it, and it decides to wake up (as you would, I guess!).

We have one of those plug-in timers with a night-light attached to it. When the night-light comes on, DS1 is allowed up. Works pretty well.

Thanks NQC,
At least I know I wasn't going mad!
I may try the night light Idea though thanks

There's also this clock that comes recommended by Cod, no less!

If you fancy a go of the bunny clock let me know and you can use mine. xx

I have used the clock which Cod gave the link for - it's ace. really easy to use and can be changed for suummer time easily.

It has a colour coding so your can teach your children that if they are awake that's ok - but not Ok to come out and disturb the rest of the house - fantastic!

Bunny clock is rubbish, don't by one.

Someone on another thread suggested making one yourself, with a cheap clock from Ikea and some paint...
