Even the youngest of babies have active minds as they lay in the cot, and the Starlight Dreamshow from Tomy is designed to occupy those little minds, then relax them and lull them to sleep.
Consisting of a small, plastic moulded star, measuring roughly 14cm (5.5 inches) from tip to tip, and 6cm (2.5 inches) in depth, the dreamshow includes a plastic strap to fix it to the cot.  |
Move the switch from "off" to either the "5 min" or "10 min" setting, then choose between pictures only or pictures and music. On the latter setting, the dreamshow will project small, pastel images of teddies, stars, moons and clouds onto the ceiling, while playing through three soft and gentle lullabies. On the first setting, the pictures are silent. If your baby isn't asleep by the time the dreamshow automatically switches off, just press the on button again for a replay. The dreamshow can also be switched off early, during either or the timed programmes.
The strap can be fitted to the dreamshow to fix it to the cot side, or it can be used freestanding on a chest of drawers or bedside cabinet. The image of a teddy bear on a cloud on the front of the dreamshow finishes off the effect and makes this a lovely addition to any nursery. --Lucie Naylor
Suitable from birth, the Starlight Dreamshow, requires 4 x AA batteries (not included) |

This has always worked brilliantly for us. It's been sending our little boy off to sleep since he was about two months old - he's now 18 months. We also gave one to our friend, and it works very well with their baby too. I've always thought that these reviews were written by the manufacturers, but I'm a genuine buyer, and I would recommend this product to other parents!
 Fantastic Product!!! August 31, 2006

My daughter was brought the starlight dreamshow as a present when was born and I quickly realised it was an essential tem to have! She will not settle until it was put on, and it has become a important part of her bedtime routine, as she has become older she started pointing to it incase I forgot to put it on. She is now two, she still loves it and it is still working its magic, she even has a favourite tune. It travels everywhere with her (hospital, holidays and grandparents etc) and really helps her settle in places she is not familiar with.
I have since spoken to other parents who also love this product, and my daughter's best friend also recieved one at birth and at 2 1/2 she still uses her one to settle at night.
I would definately recommend this to any new parent!!

The starlight dreamshow works. My baby went from awake to very sleepy before the five minutes was up. My older child was equally fascinated. I cannot give it five stars because a)there was no option for pictures only, which is what the amazon.co.uk review suggested, and b)there was no volume control.
Although my baby was sleepy, the music was keeping him awake when he clearly wanted to sleep, which caused him some agitation. It would have been nicer if the music faded gradually and/or if there was an option for pictures only.
My boy loves it! February 4, 2007

A great little product - our 1 year old loves it and when he's all ready for bed and I say 'time for the teddy show' he gets quite excited! He's usually asleep by the time it switches itself off (you can set it for 5 or 10 minutes)

I bought this for our little girl before she was born, based on the reviews others had made. I took all the 5 star reviews with a pinch of salt, but vowed to return and write a review if it worked for us.
Firstly apologies for doubting all you 5 star reviewers, the Starlight Dreamshow was an integral part of getting our daughter into a bedtime routine at four weeks. The Dreamshow is the first thing we pack when visiting the outlaws.
Secondly, I am about to order another one in case ours breaks. Pounds well spent for an evening that allows you and the missus to recharge your batteries.
