DD#1 has been busting into our room like the Kool-aid man everyday for the past few weeks. It's way to early. Honestly, I at least want the chance to get out of bed to pee before the circus starts. If I put her back into bed, she freaks & wakes up the baby. If I keep her in our room she asks for snacks & tv non-stop or just rolls around & kicks.
I am thinking about getting that toddler clock that everyone talks about here. Does anyone have the link to which one seems to be the fav.? I found a few on amazon, but $50 seems kind of steep to pay for a clock. Then again, it's sleep we're talking here, so maybe ![]()
Any tips from those who use them??

We have that one. It's set so that the light goes on when it's all right for him to leave his room. The alarm part is off because it scared the life out of him.

It has worked great for us (and for several friends too). It doesn't hurt that our DS is a major "rule follower". He loves it and it has gotten us a little more rest each morning. It hasn't changed his biological clock
so he is still awake at 6:00 EVERY morning but he doesn't charge into our room until the bunny wakes up. Good luck!
I just have a regular alarm clock that I got at Target in her room. It can play a CD for the alarm and I put her Princess CD in. We tell her not to get out of bed until the music starts. She's a rule follower, so it works. She sings the first song and then comes out of her room every morning.
And if she gets up earlier than the music, to use the potty or something, we tell her to go back into bed and she can get up again when the music starts.
