Product Description

Editorial Review

A soothing alternative to a wind-up nighttime musical toy, this soft plush sleeping Pooh, accompanied by his best friend Piglet, can be placed in a corner of the crib and controlled by remote. Playing the music from a distance means no more sneaking in to rewind a toy and possibly disturb the baby. Pooh is dressed in a blue nightcap and snuggles on a small pillow, which is a plastic music unit covered with cotton. It has a soft flashing light inside and there is an on/off switch underneath. When pressed, Pooh's familiar voice sings a lullaby. The blue plastic remote activates one of three choices--soft, tinkling classical music, a Pooh song, or chirping birds and nature sounds. Parents will need to decide if the hard plastic pillow unit is a safe choice for their child. The unit comes with three AA batteries, but three more are required for the remote. --Marianne Painter

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Purchase, October 30, 2003

This review is from: Sing Me to Sleep Pooh (Toy)

We bought this toy for our son when he was about 6 weeks old, and he hasn't slept a night without it yet!!!! Before Pooh, he would cry everytime we put him down in his crib at night. After Pooh he goes to sleep within 15 minutes of putting him down. He's now 6 months old and we won't even go on vacation without it. The best part is that Pooh has a remote control so we don't have to bother our son when Pooh stops. We can just push a button from another room. It's wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now our son can operate Pooh by himself and when he wakes in the middle of the night, he puts himself back to sleep by listening to Pooh. I highly recommend this item!!!!!!!!!!

This review is from: Sing Me to Sleep Pooh (Toy)

I purchased this for my 10-month old grandson when he was going to spend 5 days and nights with a friend of the family while we were out of town. I thought it might give him a feeling of security to have his best friend (Pooh Bear) with him in an unfamiliar environment. It was a wonderful idea. He touched the pillow to start it every night before bed - and if he woke up during the night - he would hit the button again. His caregiver said that he was a little peach going to sleep because of Pooh and Piglet.

It continues to be one of his favorite bedtime buddies. It is not unusual to hear one of the melodies many times during the night over the monitor. Because of the ease of operating, he can quickly turn it off if he's not in the mood -or if he's had enough.

The music is great and the night-light concept with Pooh and Piglet laying on a pillow is soothing and comforting. My only concern is that when the light bulb burns out - there is no replacement option. I can only hope it last for a long time.

I am putting this at the top of my list for a shower gift for special people.

I love this wonderful pooh and piglet bedtime soother. My son got this for Christmas when he was 5 months old. He loves it and so do I. He really enjoys chewing on piglet's little ears since he is now teething. The remote is wonderful so you don't have to go back into the room and worry about the baby seeing you. It's so relaxing I even love to listen to it. We took it on a long 15 hour trip and it was a lifesaver. Anytime our son got fussy we would just put it on and I could start it up again from the front seat using the remote without having to reach back and get the toy! Once we were at our destination we thought our son would have a hard time sleeping since he was not at home in his crib but having Pooh made him feel like he was home and he would drift off to sleep every time! I highly recommend this to everyone and plan on buying one for my sister who has a hard time getting her baby to sleep. This toy is worth every penny. One last note, I read another review that said this toy goes through batteries quickly but in all honesty we have not had that problem. We use it constantly and have only changed the batteries once since Christmas and even if we had to change them more often, I wouldn't complain because it's so worth it!
