Toddlers can't read a clock, so 5 a.m. feels like morning to them. Cozy Critter shows them the answer. While the critter sleeps, they stay in bed. When it wakes up and the screen lights up, so can they.
Small footsteps, a hand on your cheek, and a cheerful voice asking if it's time to play. It isn't. You both know how the rest of the day goes now.
They ask at 5:40, again at 5:55, and again at 6:10. Every answer sounds like a maybe, because the numbers on a clock don't mean anything to them yet.
One more book, one more sip of water, one more hug. Bedtime turns into a negotiation because "night" is an idea they can't see.
Little kids follow what they can see. Give them a sleeping critter at night and a waking one in the morning, and the rule stops being yours to argue about.
A soft round screen on a sturdy base, made to sit on the nightstand where your child can see it from bed.
You set the times once in the app. From then on the clock does the explaining, every night, in a way your child understands at a glance.
The critter is fast asleep under the stars. That means stay in bed, little one.
Bedtime → 5:30 AMA gentle arc fills up as morning gets closer. Rest a little longer, it's almost time.
5:30 AM → 6:30 AMThe critter wakes up and the screen lights up. Now it's okay to get up and play!
6:30 AM →The times shown are an example. You choose your own, and there's an optional wind-down before bed and a nap mode for afternoons.
Early wake-ups rarely come from a child who is ready to get up. They come from a child who stirs at 5:40 and has no idea whether morning is five minutes away or two hours. Transition answers that. The critter keeps sleeping, and a ring around the screen fills up as wake time gets closer.
Plenty of night left. Snuggle back down and close your eyes.
Morning is on its way. Rest a little longer.
Nearly time. The critter is about to wake up.
Early risers, short naps, late nights and the occasional power cut. Cozy Critter handles all of them.
Bear, owl, unicorn, snail, ladybug, rocket and more. Let your child pick a favorite and switch whenever they like. New critters arrive over WiFi.
Naps follow the same rules as nights. Start a 30 to 120 minute nap with one tap, or set a daily nap window that runs by itself.
Five optional wake melodies, from birdsong to soft chimes. Or keep mornings silent and let the screen do the talking.
Change the wake time without getting out of bed, start a nap from your watch, or just ask Siri.
Set the brightness of each screen on its own. Turn it right down for sleep and brighter for morning.
Pay once and it's yours. Bluetooth handles setup and everyday control, WiFi is optional, and the clock keeps its own time through a power cut.
The free iPhone app sets the schedule once, then lets you change any night without tiptoeing into their room.
The watch app follows the clock. During the day it starts naps. Overnight it moves the wake time, so an early start never means hunting for your phone in a dark room.
