How to choose?
Many parents do not pay enough attention when choosing a battery-powered night light, which is a very serious mistake. This device must be safe for the health of the baby, therefore when choosing, many factors should be taken into account:
- First you need to look at the material from which the night light is made. It is not recommended to purchase plastic models. It is known that when heated, this material gives off harmful substances, and in some cases - an unpleasant odor;
- The brightness of the light is of great importance. You should choose a night lamp with a dim light, but it should illuminate well at least a small area of the room. For a nursery, soft light is ideal; you should focus on the yellow shade. Bright night lights have a bad effect on the baby's sleep, as well as on his psyche.
Additional functions
Among the wide range of battery-powered nightlights, you can choose an option for every taste. An addition to the room lighting function can be:
- Music. Warm light, along with calm lullaby music, will help calm your baby more quickly. If you decide to purchase a model with music, then you should definitely listen to the presented compositions. It is worth focusing on pleasant and calm melodies. Such models must have a button to disable the music function;
- Projection. For children's rooms, battery-powered nightlights with a built-in projector are often chosen. Toddlers like to look at the starry sky before going to bed or watch the swimming fish. Thanks to the presence of batteries, the projector can be located anywhere in the room;
- Touch sensor. Models with this function turn on and off on their own. The device works in the dark and turns off when it becomes light in the room. This option is expensive, so it is not affordable for everyone. Remember that the sensor needs to be treated carefully. This will extend its life.
Where to hang?
The battery powered night light can be placed or hung anywhere. It will look beautiful on the wall, near the crib or on the curtain of the children's room. When thinking about where it is better to hang a night light, it is worth fulfilling two basic requirements:
- The light should not enter the baby's eyes. This will interfere with sound sleep, and the child will not be able to completely relax;
- The night light should provide so much light so that it is convenient for the mother to approach the baby and give a pacifier or change a diaper.
