The quality of sleep directly depends on the arrangement of the bedroom. In addition to the usual pieces of furniture, special lamps are often used in it, creating a relaxing atmosphere. One of these accessories is a projector night light, a special device popular with children and adults. This device has its own differences from classic lamps and a number of advantages.

Features and Benefits

The night projector lamp is a special device with a soft glow that creates a relaxing atmosphere. The appearance of such a night light can be very diverse: depending on the design, it can resemble a geometric figure or a soft toy. However, in any case, this is a multifunctional product with an unusual effect in the form of a projection of different themes.

The projection is transmitted in two ways:

  • by means of the glow of LED lamps on a reflective surface, projecting an image onto the walls;
  • by passing scattered light through a slide or dark patterned surface.

Such a lamp:

  • has in the arsenal from one to four or more different shades of color (main: white, green, blue, orange);
  • can transmit different pictures using a stationary or mobile transmission mode (monotonous image sliding around the ceiling or walls);
  • in most models, it is equipped with a sound function, immersing the user in a special atmosphere;
  • depending on the model, it has a function of interchangeable slides, a timer and a clock, as well as the ability to record and play any sound.

The night projector is unique. It is one of the best children's nightlights for children of all ages.

Since table lamps are not able to create the right type of light and hit the eyes, harming the retina and optic nerve, brands offer a wide range of different nightlights, among which the projector is one of the most extraordinary.

It's no secret that many kids are afraid of the dark from an early age, subconsciously drawing bloodthirsty monsters in the dark corners of the room, which affects the quality of sleep.

Depending on the model, the projector light helps:

  • relieve the child's nervous tension associated with the fear of the dark;
  • relax the body and distract the head from extraneous thoughts;
  • tune in to the positive before going to bed (to get rid of nightmares and overload of daytime information);
  • find the necessary items in the room, without turning on the main light that can wake up the household.

This design differs from conventional night lights, these projectors:

  • are fascinating devices that can tune in the right mood before going to bed not only for children, but also for adults;
  • rid the room of dark corners, as they illuminate almost the whole of it;
  • are a compact thing with light weight, which is mobile and can be located anywhere in the room;
  • do not harm the eyes, as they have soft light and "correct" shades;
  • varied in the choice of slide topics, having an approach to users of different ages;
  • in addition to colorful slides and soundtracks in the form of lullabies, they are equipped with sounds of nature, animals, birds, ocean noise;
  • depending on the model, they are considered a cognitive device that introduces the baby to different objects (stars, planets, marine life, animals, fairy-tale characters, etc.);
  • transform any room into a special room at home;
  • are an excellent gift theme for young parents and families with children.

In addition, some models can be taken with you in case of going to visit for the night, so it will be easier for the child to fall asleep in an unfamiliar place.

Children like these nightlights, they are convenient for replacing the stencil for projection. Some models provide for replacement of LEDs if any element is burnt out. Projector nightlights extend the performance of conventional pendant lights by avoiding frequent switching on and off overnight. The advantages of some models include the presence of an adapter and a cord, which makes it possible to power the device from a network or a computer.

Not every model of a projector night light can be called successful. Often, it is the variegation of the projection that interferes with sleep. In the evening, the child needs a calm atmosphere, however, there are models that are more reminiscent of disco mode, especially if they are complemented by energetic music.

Not all versions of such nightlights are made of harmless material. For example, plastic devices, when heated, release toxins into the air, which is harmful to health. Often in such fixtures the build quality suffers. You need to use them as carefully as possible.

Other disadvantages include taking into account the location: the quality of the projected image directly depends on the distance of the lamp from the wall (the drawing turns into incomprehensible spots, losing the clarity of the outlines). Battery-powered projection bedside lamps are safe, however, they do not last long: as soon as the baby begins to take an interest in them, they are removed in order to avoid damage and injury to the child. Some models have an insufficiently rigid case, as well as low power LEDs.

Models

Projection models of nightlights are different. Their type of attachment is different and can be:

  • wall-mounted - a sconce-type option;
  • desktop - a model installed on a horizontal type of surface (table, bedside table, floor);
  • a clothespin - a bed-type lamp with attachment to the side wall of a crib;
  • plug - model into a socket.

Each variety is unique in its own way: some products are laconic, others imply detachable parts, and still others - sensor mode, reaction to crying, voice, movement. Some "smart" types can independently adjust the intensity of illumination, fade-out and fade-out sound.

The materials for making the model projectors are also different.

  • They can be made from environmentally friendly wood raw materials (for example, birch plywood). Such products are painted with special water-based paints, which do not contain harmful impurities, toxic substances and heavy metal salts.
  • In addition, the brands use ceramics, plastic, fabric and glass in their production.
  • Do-it-yourself options at home are made from more creative raw materials: not only tin and glass cans are used, but also scrapbooking paper.

By age, the range of projector nightlights is divided into three groups:

  • for babies from 0 to 3 years old;
  • for toddlers and preschoolers;
  • for schoolchildren, including adolescents.

Night light mobile for babies

Variants of nightlights with a projection function for small children are made of plastic with the absence of small parts and in most cases they have a streamlined shape. These are luminaires powered by batteries, with fixation in the form of a clamp or a clothespin. Mobiles differ in shape and design. They can be laconic, compact, implying an exclusively projection version of the LED luminaire with no frills.

Other models are a mobile carousel with toys. In such devices, the night light-projector is located in the center, has holes at the top, so it can in no way harm the baby's eyes. During the day it is a toy with built-in musical melodies, at night it is a special, magical lamp.

For children from 3 to 7 years old

The range of lamps for toddlers and preschool children is somewhat different. These devices are more complicated, depending on the model, they can be equipped with electronics that can be programmed for different operating modes. These are mainly musical projection lamps with surround sound technology and large, simple drawings, on which you can see the clear outlines of lines, outlines of the eyes, shapes, and emotions of the character.

The presence of a timer allows you to turn off the device without disturbing the baby.

For schoolchildren

If, for some reason, a child cannot sleep without light at that age, brands offer different models for sale, including more "grown-up" ones. These models are notable for slides with astronomical maps, detailed images of the surface of planets, allowing you to give a child an impetus to explore space and escape from fear.

Such models have an additional set of functions. In addition to the soundtrack with sounds of nature, these accessories are supplied with adjustment of design modes (pictures can be stationary or smoothly sliding along the walls). Often, the feature set includes a clock, alarm clock, thermometer, and calendar.

Forms

Thanks to the efforts of brands that take into account all the preferences of customers, the models differ in appearance and have a rich range of models. In addition to the fact that they do not have sharp corners that can be injured, the products have a different design in the form of:

  • soft toys (turtles, hedgehog, butterfly, elephant, hippo, ladybug, flying saucer);
  • plastic toys (in the form of an asterisk, a monkey, a magic turtle, a snail, an egg, a spaceship, a flower);
  • rounded products (ball, semicircle on a stand);
  • laconic cylindrical projectors on a stand without reference to different ages.

The subject of projections is varied and depends on the age of the child.

Some of the most popular drawing ideas are:

  • starry sky and space;
  • depths of the sea and the ocean;
  • characters of films and cartoons;
  • toys;
  • magic and fairy tale.

Models can be versatile or designed separately for boys and girls. As a rule, this is visible externally: options for little ladies are made in pinkish shades, products for boys - in blue, green and blue tones.

Appointment

The purpose of the bedside lamps is to unobtrusively illuminate the room at night. The brands declare that the products are intended for children. However, for the most part, such lamps are needed by parents, because babies do not know of fear. Thanks to such lamps, you can not get up to the child every minute, while turning on the light. The night light helps the child fall asleep, but along with getting used to the light, it instills discomfort, forcing the little man to use the night light every day, which is harmful, since it instills a subconscious fear of the dark.

If, when using a children's night light, over time, you reduce operation to a minimum, this is normal: this way the child will get used to sleeping without a night light.

Psychologists do not recommend getting carried away with such accessories: otherwise it will develop into a problem that will not be easy to cope with.

Reviews

The night projector is an interesting idea for the relaxation of children, according to buyers. When purchasing such lamps, parents note: from the variety of choices, you can choose a good option that will create a good, relaxing atmosphere.

Among the reviews left on the Internet, there are comments that say: projector lamps are not as good as advertisements say about them. They are not suitable for every child, because sometimes, instead of relieving stress and creating a pleasant relaxing environment, they irritate the eye with flickering red lights and, in general, an excess of contrast. Moreover, not every child can fall asleep when the room is flooded with a sea of ​​glowing lights.

Other users who have tested these night lamps write in the comments: the lamps are worth the money spent, children like them, really set them up for sleep, develop children, and at the expense of different costs they can be changed as the child grows up.

Some drawings are so realistic that parents themselves like them, which increases the rating of nightlights in reviews: these are high-quality and good devices that help in taking care of children.
