Can anyone recommend an alarm clock?

[mumgoingcrazy]

DD2 (6.5 ASD & dyspraxia) can manage to tell the time if it's o'clock and half past however seems to have no concept of when to get up. I've tried to draw a picture of a clock saying 7 o'clock and putting it next to her clock so she gets up when her clock matches the picture one. She gets it but seems to forget.

I'm after a clock to go next to her bed, digital and analogue that will say or do something when it's time to get up.

She has a gro clock but she just presses the buttons until the sunshine appears and thinks it's then ok to get up.

If anyone could recommend one it'd be much appreciated.

we have a phillips clock by my sons bed, its digital - the one that the light comes on gradually in the lead up to the alarm going off. He also has dyspraxia and a analogue clock is still mostly a mystery.....can read a digital though. But the light coming on was a good training thing....he wasn't allowed out of bed until the light was on.

Is this the sort of thing you are looking for? We've had one for 3 years now and it is still going strong.

we have an alarm clock from maplin, it talks when u press the button it tells you the time and temp, it cost about £6, dd has it set to talk every hour.

Thankyou all for your suggestions,

Jaxx, that looks brilliant and I like that it's analogue and digital. I also like the Phillips one where the light gradually comes on before the alarm goes off, dd2 is a bit noise sensitive so this could be good.

Decisions decisions, thankyou x

Vibrating alarm clocks might be an option if the noise is an issue - I've heard good things about this one
