How do you get your little one to understand when it’s time to get up?

The Tommee Tippee Groclock sleep trainer uses colours and pictures to help children who are too young to read an ordinary clock, to understand when it’s time to sleep and when it’s time to spring out of bed and play!

How does the Groclock work?

How do you get your children to understand when it's time to get up? It's easy- “stay in bed until the blue sleepy time stars and hearts have disappeared and the screen turns yellow. The sun will have woken up and it's wake up time for you too.” 

The Groclock uses fun images to communicate when to go back to sleep and when it's time to spring out of bed. For older children, they can learn to read the digital time, as well as looking for the sun to wake up. You can also choose to set an optional audible alarm as your child gets older.

Blue Light

There is a lot of information out there around the affects of “blue light” at night on sleep.  The blue light discussion generally relates to blue light waves emitted from LED screens of TVs, computers, smartphones, video games and some light bulbs. When we’ve asked our customers for feedback about the Gro Clock’s blue illuminated face the responses suggested that it has little or no negative impact on their child’s sleep.  

However if it is a concern and you still want the benefits of a reliable sleep trainer clock you can adjust the brightness of the screen. If you don’t want the blue light visible at all at night (e.g. your child prefers sleeping in the dark) the Groclock can be adjusted to “00” which means no light at all, right up to the brightest setting which works well as a nightlight. 

When it’s time to wake up the Groclock's screen will light up in yellow and the sun icon will appear. 

Please note - The sleep trainer clock is powered by USB cable (1.8m length) so there’s no need for batteries. It excludes adaptor plug but compatible with most USB plugs used as phone chargers. We suggest using a good quality adapter to power your Groclock.
