Nighty Night Owl

I first purchased a sleep sheet in 2013 right before my daughter was born and in 2015 I purchases the smaller travel version to take on a cross country trip with my then 18 month old.. seriously, this is the best baby purchase I ever made! And I wasted some money on a lot of baby/toddler stuff. My daughter is now 11.5 and still uses this sound machine every night.I am back to possibly purchase one to keep in my home office for my anxious dog. Yep - it is that soothing! The whale and ocean are my personal favorites. You will not be disappointed if you purchase one of these. They really last and are so portable.The tones are so soothing! I’ve even tried to find similar sounds for my phone for less baggage travel but none compare. Maybe we are just picky after listening to the same stuff for 11+ years 🤣.I also recommend getting a set of rechargeable batteries if you order. They will last a really long time with this little machine.

I got the "travel size" sheep. Even this size is larger than expected, about what I would consider a normal stuffed animal size. I like that it has straps to attach to a crib or stroller, but I do wish the straps could be tucked away. You should be warned that the straps are especially long, and they absolutely will stick to Sheepy's fluff and rip at it if you're not careful when you unstrap it.I'm conflicted about the buttons being on the outside of Sheepy. It makes them very accessible, which is nice when I'm tired. I know waves is two from the bottom. When she's older she'll easily be able to push the button herself. But it does make it considerably less cuddly, because there's no way to tuck away the massive back panel, which means the cute stuffed animal face is largely just for show. It also means the buttons can be bumped by accident.Two of the sounds we find just plain strange - whale calls and what sounds like "after rain" with dripping water and bird calls. It doesn't feel much like a nighttime wind-down noise. I think those would be better purposed slots as heartbeat and heavy rain (sans thunder, of course) or lullaby.It's a bit disappointing that travel size only comes in sheep, but we do take a small measure of joy calling it her "sleep sheep".My biggest concern with buying Sheepy was that it's entirely battery based. But this is actually the reason it got 5 stars instead of 4. My daughter is 8 months old now, has used Sheepy 2-3xs a night since she was a newbie, and it's still going strong.Overall, I appreciate that it's a simple, affordable, cute sound machine that doesn't require my smart phone or an app, just an old school button.

I received the sleep sheep 6 years ago at my baby shower with my first baby. 6 years later and my 2 oldest kids still love it (they share a room). I love it so much that 2 months ago I bought this sleep unicorn for my youngest baby and she loves it. The sounds are great and there are many to choose from. The volume adjusts which is great. It blocks out the sounds of my older girls while my youngest naps. The music really seems to help with her sleep routine. The unicorn is also very silky soft. Our sheep is kind of rough feeling. But best of all the batteries last SO LONG! I change them maybe once or twice a year on my old one and we use it nightly. The new unicorn is only 2 months old, but so far so good. I've had other ones where I'm changing the batteries every month or more. Also it's super portable! Anywhere a stuffed animal goes, this can go. I couldn't recommend this more. It's amazing. Go buy one! Your baby will love it 😁

Omg this little guy is soooo adorable! We received it as a gift for my sons first bday from his grandparents. Although to be honest, I picked it out myself! We were looking at another bear that had some neat sound options, such as turning on to the sound of the baby crying! And it was supposed to be pink instead of white noise which was supposed to be more soothing. BUT the bear wasn’t really that cute! They had different colored bears but no other reall choices then that. So when I decided to compare other options I came across this lil fox and I couldn’t help but fall in love! Luckily my lil Silas felt the same way. It was the first time I saw him carry a stuffed animal around and act like it was special to him! He even gives it hugs and kisses!I wish there were maybe more sound options. The heart beat isn’t very soothing, it’s almost creepy sounding really, as is the whales. So I normally like the nature and white noise type sounds but I almost like the lullabies better. When you push the button twice the songs come on instead of the nature type sounds.Everyone at his bday party fell in love with this lil guy as well. So I’d give it 5 stars for cute cuddliness! And 3-4 stars for the sound choices. Though they have been helpful overall and we do like to use them to block out other noise for sleep and soothing.
