Cloud B Gentle Giraffe On The Go Four Soothing Sounds, Safari Order Now

Ok, I'll admit it: I'm 33 and I bought this giraffe for myself!

I have dealt with insomnia for years... trying white noise machines and cds to help me sleep ... and usually falling back on talk radio to lull me to sleep each night.

The problem with most white noise/sound machines is that I would either have to plug them into headphones (I sleep on my side) or my husband has to endure the "summer rain" sounds till I fall asleep. Also, quite a few white noise machines/nature cds have annoying music, repeating sounds/short loops ... frustrating.

The Cloud B Giraffe has solved my problem... I can sleep on my side with the animal under the blankets. I can control the volume exactly as I need to, even while half asleep!

My only complaints are 1. for MY purposes, I don't need the "play" and "safari" buttons. They are lovely and cute for awake time (play has a gentle drum along with real giraffe sounds, and safari has a music-less safari soundtrack, including giraffe, birds, etc) but not particularly useful for me. Then again, this IS a TOY for CHILDREN, so ... :)

Complaint 2. is that it would be nice if the buttons were more concealed and a little less easy to accidentally bump. This isn't really a problem for me, but I can imagine that for children who roll around at night, they might end up hitting the "play" button instead of the "white noise" button.

All in all, though, a great idea. Well made, attractive, clear sound quality.Get more detail about Cloud B Gentle Giraffe On The Go Four Soothing Sounds, Safari.
