Even the youngest of babies have active minds as they lay in the cot, and the Starlight Dreamshow from Tomy is designed to occupy those little minds, then relax them and lull them to sleep.
Consisting of a small, plastic moulded star, measuring roughly 14cm (5.5 inches) from tip to tip, and 6cm (2.5 inches) in depth, the dreamshow includes a plastic strap to fix it to the cot.  |
Move the switch from "off" to either the "5 min" or "10 min" setting, then choose between pictures only or pictures and music. On the latter setting, the dreamshow will project small, pastel images of teddies, stars, moons and clouds onto the ceiling, while playing through three soft and gentle lullabies. On the first setting, the pictures are silent. If your baby isn't asleep by the time the dreamshow automatically switches off, just press the on button again for a replay. The dreamshow can also be switched off early, during either or the timed programmes.
The strap can be fitted to the dreamshow to fix it to the cot side, or it can be used freestanding on a chest of drawers or bedside cabinet. The image of a teddy bear on a cloud on the front of the dreamshow finishes off the effect and makes this a lovely addition to any nursery. --Lucie Naylor

Okay but not that great July 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Strengths: - Very lightweight - Cute music - Cute pictures from the light show
Weaknesses: - Can easily be pulled down by baby using its fingers - Pictures are on a rotating disc, so may become boring after a while. - Once the baby sits up in the crib, this can be hazardous if it't attached to the side, because the light has a warning not to let eyes come in the way of the rays. - Probably useless after the child is four months old, if not before.
A better buy, in my opinion, would be the mobiles from Tiny Love that have farm or zoo animals. These are well-designed, durable, and can be used well into the toddler years (without the mobile part). My 1.5 year old still enjoys playing the tunes from the base that held the mobile (which I removed around six months). I could not bring myself to take it away from him to give to his sister, so I had purchased this little Dreamshow.
Great Product June 29, 2008 My little boy loves this, and I do too. It's great for distracting him as I leave the room before he goes to sleep. Wish it lasted longer than 10 mins though this is generally long enough.
My son is now 10 months and has started hitting the star so that it rattles the side of his cot so not sure how much longer it will be of use to us. Also, I live in Northern Scotland and even with blackout blinds its not dark enough at night in the summer to see the light show, still benefit from the music though.
Wonderful May 15, 2008 This has become part of baby's bedtime routine. She absolutely loves it and doesn't seem to get bored of it - infact 6 months on and it still makes her smile, knowing that she's going to be whisked off into dreamland. Probably one of our best investments, and its great on batteries too!

I bought this on the strength of the reviews on here. My baby is now 18weeks old, we started using this a couple of weeks ago and it's revolutionsed nap times and bedtime. He has always been a struggle to get to sleep, he fights the tiredness, but the dreamshow really helps him get to sleep. The lovely lullabies are soothing, he recognises them now and calms down straight away when we turn it on and the pictures on the ceiling are very cute! I wish we'd bought this much earlier, sleep times are much better because of this!
Part of bedtime routine! March 25, 2008 This has become part of our nightly bedtime routine and has helped me to get my daughter to sleep in her cot by herself. The 3 tunes are very relaxing and the show is cute and not too bright. The reason why I did not give it 5 stars is because: 1)There is no volume control and it is a little loud. I can hear it from outside the room with door closed easily. 2)The lightshow does not always come on from the beginning of the music. Sometimes it starts halfway through the song.
