Proper clock for a toddler

3 replies

My son is just into his toddler bed (5 days).

Have so far had wake up calls of 5, 5.15, 5.45, 5.15, 3.20!!! I work evenings and have had a 2 day migraine (possibly bad timing, possibly stress and sleep deprivation I don't know but I would like a swift end.)

I have seen the night-light clock with moons and stars that is supposed to help with staying in bed, but is there anything similar with numbers? DS loves counting and the clock, I feel he would think one without numbers would already make him feel babyish or at least lose it's magic pretty quickly.

If it has a little light that would be even better, every time I hear him running through to our room I have a fit thinking he is going to trip and brain himself in the dark (although clearly he has a better morning head than me as he hasn't yet).

Otherwise just hand me another cup of tea, please. -yawn-

we used a digital clock so it was easy to see the numbers. Both mine have one if the go glow night lights that can be a torch as well.

We trend a normal clock but DD just waited until there was a 7 anywhere in the time and can running through, 2.07 anyone?

We ended up getting a kidsleep clock for her and she is now learning to tell the time but she knows she has to wait until the bunny is awake before she comes out.

We have a wall clock from sainsbury designed for teaching to tell the time - so very clear numbers and coloured differently for past and to the hour. Also hands are different colours.
