Great Sleep Training Tool
Our daughter was having a constant problem getting up way too early for us, we purchased another type of clock from Amazon and it was a failure, however we read the mix reviews on this and were skeptical, after we returned the other one and got this one . A year later, we must say this thing is freaking awesome and amazing. We can actually get an extra 30 minutes of sleep and it may not sound like a lot but for a parent with a toddler its' an extra 30 minutes of not having someone jumping on your head, or screaming at you. The key thing we realized with this clock is; its a training tool and order for you to be successful at it you have to train your kid.With our daughter we taught her when the "Light is red, we stay in bed", and When the light is Green its time to get up. We set the clock up for 6:30 in the morning, but the key thing is at night we turn the alarm on together and its a sign that we need to slow down and get ready to go to bed. If she wakes up at 6:00 AM, we walk her back to bed and she lays there till the light turns green. She has now been conditioned to get a book or play with her dolls until the light on the clock turns green, which has been a plus for us. It took us about a week to get the concept down including sending her back to her room until her clock turns green in the morning several times, and within a month she would sit in her bed quietly until the light turns.We also found out with our daughter her standard wake up time is 6:30, and we tried to see if we can manipulate her into staying in bed later with the clock and it did not work. The problem is she is only willing to stay in bed for up to 30 minutes, and after that she gets restless, so my advice is to use this in conjunction with your kids natural wake/sleep cycle, as this will not work miracles.Our only regret is that we did not discover this early enough it would of saved us some extra months of sanity.Cons:One Setting: You can only setup one alarm time, there is no timer. It would be great if there was a timer setting so we could use this for nap time. Because there is only one time setting we only use it at night. The setup is kind of cumbersome which means once we have it setup we don't mess with it.Price: I think the price is kinda of high for what this product is, but I guess you are selling parents control over their toddlers wake-up schedule, and an extra 3.5 hours of sleep per week in our case. I guess most parents would pay more than the asking price for that.

What a GREAT invention!!!
This clock light is amazing. It does exactly what it is supposed to do!Let me start with a background...I have a 2 3/4 year old & a 13 month old. They share a bedroom. All of a sudden since the time "sprung ahead" and it got bright out earlier and earlier, my 2 year old decided he should get up earlier. He used to sleep until 8am, then all of a sudden we were getting up at 630. He also kept waking up my other son, "Cameron it's time to get up, the suns up!!" So my kiddos were up earlier and earlier every day. Finally, a friend told me about this clock & sure enough I found it on Amazon. It is a little pricy for a 'clock' but I took the plunge.Boy am I glad I bought this. It works great. The light is red when he has to 'stay in bed' You set the clock for whatever time you would like it to switch to green. So I tell my kids when it's green you can open your eyes! Also, it's nice there is a setting for just the amber yellow light as a night light. I've been setting the color change to happen at 730am (you can also set it to have an actual alarm sound, but we don't use that feature at this time - maybe when the kids are in school) It is hilarious in the morning, I can hear my son get up around 630 and mumble to himself, "it's red, stay in bed" haha ... but once 7:30 comes around, he says "Mom! Dad! It's green! Time to get up!"I love this thing. Gives my husband, myself and our 13month old an extra hour of sleep (much needed). We plan on slowly adding 5 minutes every few days to get back to 8am.If you are in the same situation, I definitely recommend this item. It works great. I will adjust my review if anything comes up! :)

Great Idea but didn't work for us.
This is an awesome concept. LOVE the stoplight theme. Kids already knew what the colors meant from being backseat drivers. I have a 2 yr old and almost 5. My 5 year old is AuDHD. She has always had separation anxiety from me and her therapist recommended a sleep training light to help us get her to stay in her bed through the night . Was kind of desperate to reclaim my bed so willing to try anything.We didn't want to cut her off cold turkey from the security of our room so we set the red light to change to green at 3am. That's 6 hrs in her room with her sister alone without me or dad. Well she would fall asleep but wake up sometime between 9pm and 3am and I caught her sitting on her couch just watching the light.It had caused her souch anxiety in a week that she had stopped going to sleep and just hyper focused on the light turning green. Once I realized that was happening, it was the end of the stop light clock.I really wanted it to work but her special little brain said nope. Great product , idea is awesome , but doesn't work for our family.We did work on just consistently walking her back to her room but even if she cried and woke up her sister. Many days of sleepless nights but we did eventually work up to her going back to her room and into her bed without a breakdown. I get called one to two times a night and o come in and give her a hug and she stays in her room till daylight, that's around 5am this time of year. So improvement is possible. Eventually I hope we'll get to a point where she's able to sleep through the night without having to revert to medication. Good luck to all. You ARE good parents !!!

Expensive, but worth every penny
Let alone its very comprehensible to a 2 and 3 year old, not to get out of bed before the green light comes on, it also made our endless going-to-bed saga come to an end. I switch the red light on secretly, when they don't see me, while they're in the tub, and when they come out, it's a race to lay down, cause OMG, the red light is already on. I don't know which I appreciate more, not being woken up at 5 am on a Saturday or my quite evenings...

works great!
I live in Australia and when I read the reviews from Australians I was a bit worried that the clock won't work for us but it's working. So the clock comes with an American adaptor and instead of getting a transformer we actually bought another adaptor that has 240V and it's working! Cute looking alarm clock! My son loves it!

Great little clock
My son is obsessed with traffic lights and gets so excited to turn the light on. It works great. It's just cheap plastic so it's a bit pricy for what it is but if it helps him stay in bed it's worth it. So far it has been helping.
