But in 9 years of parenting, I’ve never once wished I had a nap timer. The OK to Wake! also has an alarm clock with snooze feature. It has a “nap timer” which allows for napping without disrupting the alarm or nightlight settings. It will stay on for a set duration (up to two hours) but don’t think of this as a traditional nightlight that stays on all night. It also has a nightlight (soft yellow glow) that can be turned on with a tap of one of the front toes. But it does have the dual-color nightlight that turns green when it’s okay to wake up the parents. This clock does not teach time or talk like the one above. The Onaroo OK to Wake! has less bells and whistles and will cost you about $30. Onaroo OK to Wake Children’s Alarm Clock and Nightlight is similar to the Onaroo Teach Me Time! (reviewed above). Onaroo OK to Wake Children’s Alarm Clock and Nightlight Weaknesses: Might need the user’s guide for some of the settings but that’s really the case for all the clocks reviewed here.įinal Word: I’m a big fan of this clock. Strengths: Longer shelf life because of its simple design, helps teach kids about time, lets young children know when they can get up, an alarm clock, can display the time as a clock face or the digital time, buttons are hidden away. It has its own AC power adapter and has an optional battery back-up. The clock comes with three interchangeable colored bezels (blue, pink and yellow). The only thing this clock doesn’t seem to do is make coffee for the parents in the morning. I really like the teach me time feature – it’s a cute, fun way for kids to practice telling time. The clock can also be used as an alarm clock and as a simple game for teaching time to different skill levels. But I don’t think the light is too bright. This is a nightlight so if you really don’t want any light in your child’s room then this might not be the clock for you. (And no, you can’t set the time for 10 AM for your toddlers. There is an OK to Wake! feature which means the clock will go from yellow to green when it’s okay for kids to get up. You can display the time either as an analog clock or the numeric time or both. But buttons are hidden away which means little hands will not start changing the settings. Oh, and if you are over 40, good luck trying to read the buttons on the back in any kind of dim lighting. But then again, I never claimed to be a tech genius. If you start just playing around with all the buttons in the back, you will in all likelihood make yourself completely crazy. To set up and learn to use this clock, you will need the directions. I currently use this clock in my daughters’ room (ages 7 and 9) and it’s perfect. I love the look of the Onaroo Teach Me Time! Talking Clock which sells for about $40. The design is very modern and simple which means it will look nice in any room and your kids won’t suddenly outgrow it. Onaroo Teach Me Time! Talking Alarm Clock and Nightlight Thankfully for us weary parents, there are some great kids clocks available, designed to help keep your kids in their rooms longer while you catch just a few more zzz’s. Because for some reason, most young children like to start their day at the break of dawn and they aren’t very quiet about it.
