We've tried different night lights over the years for our children, and we usually have either a baby or toddler in our room, so it's important to have some illumination for when you or the child gets up in the night. I love that this crib light is motion activated so it saves energy. The slim profile is compact and stows out of sight under your baby's crib, bassinet or play pen. It also means the light puts out just enough to see by, but doesn't shine in anyone's eyes and interrupt sleep. The color change feature is really cool and the smart technology means you can control it from your phone, if you like!
