Alternative to Sleep Sheep?

DS #1 has a travel-sized Sleep Sheep which was probably the best baby gear item we bought.  We used it for naps, bedtime, travel, etc, and the ocean sounds soothed him (and me) to sleep on more occasions than I can count.  He just turned 3, and he still wants to listen to it while he falls asleep some nights. Needless to say, I can't give his "Sheepy" to the new baby.

I thought that, to be different, I'd get DS #2 a Cloud B soothing toy that was a different animal, but (to my mind) the giraffe doesn't make nice soothing sounds.  Cloud B makes a bunny rabbit which has the ocean setting, but not in the travel size.  Does anyone have the Cloud B bunny?  Do you recommend it?  Or have you found another sleep animal that works as well as the sheep?

  • Target and costco have the disney cloud b sound soothers. Not sure if the sounds are more soothing though.

    My 3 year old still sleeps with his fisher price seahorse. It only plays music for 5 minutes and its belly lights up.

    We have the cloud b travel sleep giraffe and O loves it.
    Which setting is best for getting baby to sleep?  I was just disappointed that the giraffe doesn't have the ocean sounds, and I didn't think some of the African bush/animal sounds were very soothing.
  • You'd be amazed at what babies find soothing! Mine only went for the rain sounds on soothers. This baby may not want the ocean anyway.

  • We have the cloud b on the go giraffe and DS loves it. The babbling brook noise is his fav.

    Too true... I checked out the giraffe-on-the-go again, and I think the waterfall or the brook/rain sounds might be good.  It's the cutest sleep animal besides the sheep, IMO, and we really liked the travel size.
