When my son was a baby, he had a lot of fussy moments. He didn’t sleep through the night until I stopped breastfeeding (at almost 15 months) and to this day he still wakes up every now and then. I tried most things people suggested…routines and schedules, books, etc. But I was determined not to let him cry it out, so my husband and I had our share of sleepless nights.
One of the things I did was purchase a few of Cloud B’s Sleep Sheep & Friends. My son had (and still has) Sleep Sheep, Twilight Turtle, and Lavender Lab. The company offers a line of products designed to help your child sleep easier. Cloud B partnered with a panel of experts to develop quality products that “help babies sleep and simplify parents’ lives.” This “advisory board,” comprised of pediatricians and sleep specialists, ensures that all of the company’s products are functional and safe.
The company uses sounds, sights, and smells designed to help babies and tots get and stay asleep. Our baby girl received an adorable little Dozy Dolphin On The Go, designed “to help recreate sleep routines with familiar sounds while away from home.” He (or she?) makes a variety of oceanic (and dolphin-like) sounds and is made of a soft, cozy bamboo fabric. The goal is to help children sleep away from home. Here are some of Dozy’s features:
Plays four, water-based sounds including dolphins playing (stirs imagination), whale songs (relaxation), tranquil melody (promotes restful sleep), and ocean waves (calming).
Offers two sleep timer options (23 and 45 minutes)
Includes a Dozy Dolphin story and adoption certificate
Being the green mom that I am, I am partial to the company’s use of hypoallergenic bamboo. Bamboo is grown without fertilizers or pesticides, is the most renewable source on the planet, and is 100% biodegradable. It’s also antibacterial and antifungal.
The companies “on the go” friends, are smaller and much easier to tote. You can easily velcro Dozy to a stroller or car seat. The part of the dolphin that plays sound (it’s like a little box) velcros in and my son has figured out how to take it out. I think my son is having more fun with it than my daughter at this point in time. I find the sounds to be soothing, my favorite being the ocean waves.
My son always liked the smell of Lavender Lab and Twilight Turtle’s lights. He wasn’t particularly fond of Sleep Sheep (I think the noises were unfamiliar to him) but has grown to really like Dozy. When our baby girl is fussy, I’ve been turning on the ocean waves to soothe her. When she’s in her quiet-awake state, she looks around at the dolphin (almost as if she’s trying to figure out where the sound is coming from).
Dozy Dolphin On The Go is part of Cloud B’s Endangered Species series and a portion of this purchase goes to Conservation International. He retails for $23 and is available for purchase online.
I did not receive compensation for this post. I did receive a product, courtesy of the company, in order to facilitate my review.

Now that’s a neat little guy! I’ll have to look into this!
These look great. I’ll give them a mention on my blog with a link back to your post.
Those are so cute and I love the feel of organic bamboo. I love the sound of the ocean and whale song, so I bet the other sounds are terrific, too.
What a great toy for your adorable daughter to receive, and I’m glad Jake loves it, too.
