Description
This bright and colourful alarm clock has an LED night light that glows gently all night and automatically turns off during the day. Or, if preferred, you can turn the night light off. The clock has a crescendo alarm, which starts with a gentle beep and gets progressively more urgent until it’s turned off. Pressing the Snooze button disables the alarm for 5 minutes and the clock face glows brighter for a few seconds. Best of all, the silent sweep movement means there is no annoying ticking!
What our testers said
“I will set the alarm for 7 o’clock, that is when the big hand is at the top and little hand at the 7.” – Girl aged 7
“Look mummy, if I move this, the hands go round.” – Boy aged 6
What our experts think
This simple to use Alarm Clock is great for helping children to improve their confidence in telling the time and getting them involved in their daily routine. Setting the alarm to help them get up for school really helps to build independence by giving them the responsibility to wake up by themselves.
Our testers found the green and red sections on the clock fantastic for helping children to understand the difference between ‘to’ and ‘past’ when telling the time, which particularly helped little ones struggling to grasp the concept. The light feature is also ideal for use as a nightlight.
