Teach Me Time Talking Alarm Clock and Nightlight

An adorable, talking bedside alarm clock, time-teaching tool, and night-light all in one. It glows a soft yellow as your little ones fall asleep and then turns green in the morning (at a time you specify) when it’s “OK to Wake!” Kids take pride in waiting for the green light before they come visit you in the bedroom with the knowledge of a job well-done. Three LCD display modes (analog clock, digital clock or both) allow parents to select the display type best suited for their child. An interactive, talking time-teaching game is designed to be played with your child in the evening before bed or any time at all.
