“Mom, I slept so good last night…” are never really words I thought I would hear come out of my preschooler’s mouth. They did and she was right.
You see, Twilight Turtle by Cloud B is her new fascination. He is a plush toy that transforms any room into a starry night sky to help comfort children to sleep. From within his plastic shell, Twilight Turtle projects a magical constellation of stars onto bedroom ceiling and walls in three soothing color options. Twilight Turtle’s shell illuminates to help ease children’s fear of the dark.
I’m sure you’ve seen Twilight Turtle around… He has received The National Parenting Center Seal of Approval, 2006 Creative Child Magazine Preferred Choice. Not only that, he is an iParenting Award Winner and Baby Talk Editor’s Choice.
This interactive and educational toy includes eight actual constellations (such as The Big Dipper) embedded in the star pattern. Parents can sit with their children and identify these major constellations using the wonderfully illustrated Twilight Turtle Star Guide. Twilight Turtle helps make bedtime fun for children 3 and up.
The Turtle plush is now available in 3 different colors: Classic Mocha, Blue or Purple! Each Turtle projects stars in the same 3 colors.
Color has the ability to relieve tension and promote relaxation. Twilight Turtle illuminates and projects the constellations in three soothing colors specifically chosen to help comfort children to sleep.
Each Turtle projects stars in these 3 colors:
Amber – The color of autumn and the setting sun. Like the glow of a campfire, amber radiates warmth, good cheer and peace.
Blue – Blue has been shown to calm the mind and soothe the senses. We are surrounded by blue in nature, from the sky to the sea. It encourages relaxation and promotes sound sleep.
Green – The color of life and renewal. Abundant in nature, green is symbolic of growth and the rebirth of spring. Green is thought to promote healing and rejuvenation.
