Crayola AM/FM Alarm Clock Radio with Night Light review

If your little one is having trouble waking up on his own, and you are tired of rolling him out of bed in the morning, then Crayola AM/FM Alarm Clock Radio with Night Light is a perfect solution. The front panel comes with customisable plates, so kids can be in charge of the design, and for younger children the three colour night light feature is a definite bonus.

The alarm functions on this clock lets your child wake up to the radio, a buzzer, or a programmable 10-second message. Kids can have a blast leaving messages for themselves, or silly sounds and jokes. The cool blue backlight LCD display has a dimmer adjustment in case it is too bright for the little ones. Mums and dads will love the back-up battery power, meaning that they never have to set the time after a power outage.

Kids can set the sleep timer if they want to fall asleep to the radio and can gently ease into a new day with the gradual wake system. They will quickly discover the snooze function as well, allowing them to catch a few more winks before getting ready for school.

With all the great functions on this alarm clock at a great price it is no wonder that the Crayola AM/FM Alarm Clock Radio with Night Light is such a popular model for children, which make it a great birthday or Christmas gift. Give kids control over when they wake up and let them learn about time and promptness.

Flying Alarm Clock review

We have all done it - you hear the noise of your alarm as you are still basically asleep, you sub-consciously roll over and press the snooze button, same happens again 15 minutes later, repeat 10 times, eventually wake up. PANIC!!

The implications can be huge - late to work and get the sack, miss interview and don’t get new job, miss flight to Malaga and miss your holiday, late to your wedding and get dumped at the alter - it’s all bad!

So, here is the answer. An alarm clock that goes off and doesn’t stop until you are out of bed. And how does that work I hear you ask. Well when the alarm goes off it makes a rather nasty noise that will wake you up - but at the same time one of those kind of helicopter-style rotor things flies off the alarm clock and lands somewhere in your bedroom. The nasty noise does not stop until you have found the rotor and fitted it back on the top of the alarm clock base. By then, of course, you are awake!

You can then go to work, that interview, the airport or the church in plenty of time and live happily ever after!
