Twilight Constellation Night Light, by Cloud b, is a cute plush turtle that acts as a soothing and educational nightlight, designed to not only help baby feel safe and soothed when falling asleep, but also to teach about the five endangered species highlighted on the shell. Twilight Constellation Night Light comes with several different nightlight modes. One in which the turtle shell illuminates for a calming nightlight effect in one of the following colors aquamarine, blue, or green. The second modes is a night sky is projected on the ceiling, including stars illuminated in a background of ocean blue, emerald green ,or the two colors together. The last mode consists of five endangered sea animals pictured on the shell; each individually lights up. There is an auto shut-off with a 45-minute sleep timer. The Sea Turtle Twilight Constellation Night Light also comes with an adoption certificate, and a star guide for identifying the projected constellations. This toy is best appreciated by children from age 2 to adult. Children under 2 should not play with this toy unsupervised, although it is still an ideal nightlight.
Pros:
- The Twilight Constellation Night Light comes with 3 AAA batteries included, so it is ready to light up the night when you get it home.
- The 45-minute sleep timer allows children to be soothed to sleep, by the soft lighting, without wasting too much battery life.
- Projects a beautiful night sky in three soothing and lovely colors.
- Twilight Sea Turtle’s adoption certificate and storybook make this little sea turtle nightlight really feel like a part of the family, and also helps to teach children about endangered animals.
- Also makes a great nightlight for late-night breast feeding, as it provides just the right amount of light.
Cons:
- In order for the stars to look like stars, this nightlight needs to be placed on a tall object in the center of the room, i.e. a dresser. If the nightlight is placed on the floor, the constellations appear more like fuzzy dots, which make identifying constellations difficult.
- The stars do not move around when projected on the walls.
- Turtle shell on the nightlight is hard plastic, not soft fabric, some people did not like that aspect of the nightlight.
- The toy is not meant to be handled by children under the age of 2, as the shell is hard and could cause injury to either baby or parent if swung or thrown like a weapon. Also the shell could break when swung or thrown, potentially leaving sharp plastic shards that could injure a baby.
- There is not an OFF button, so batteries can wear out if older children turn the nightlight on multiple time per day.
- Because this nightlight contains fragile LED lights, it is not really meant to be played with in any sort of a rough manner. It is really mean to be a cute, sweet nightlight.

I originally bought the Cloud b Constellation Night Light for my 5-month old baby to help him sleep better, he was starting to teethe and pretty fussy. The nightlight really helped him to sleep better. The stars were just mesmerizing to him, and I think helped him take his mind off of sore gums. I was also surprised when my older son, who is 4, would come in and stare at the night sky in his brother’s room. I eventually got a sea turtle nightlight for my older son, too. Now both of my children are able to fall asleep to a beautiful starry sky every night. This has been an excellent nightlight for our family; much more interesting and cute than the average nightlights.
I got this for my little one and he loves it. Highly recommended.
