Zenimal Kids Meditation and Soothing Sounds Screen-Free Audio Player - Promotes Mindfulness, Includes 9 Audio Meditations, 60 Minutes of Relaxing Music, Ocean Waves, and White Noise, Teal

Purchased this because of the podcast, Childhood Collective. It came highly recommended for parents of kids with adhd. The first night we used it, my child fell asleep so fast. Usually they’re up multiple times because they can’t fall asleep. Then we went on vacation and my child asked to bring it with us. We used it and my younger child ended up using it too since they shared a room. It worked for them as well! It’s pure magic if you have an adhd kiddo or just a kid who struggles falling asleep. Definitely worth every penny! So much so that I got a second one for my younger kid. 🐢 😴

My kids love this little turtle. Great variety of sounds and meditations, something for all occasions.

We have had this for about 5 months...its amazing. The kids take it everywhere. Its been in the sand/ thrown down the stairs/ gotten wet (it doesn't say its waterproof, but ours didnt die!!!!) our 5 year old loves to take it to bed and listen to it to fall asleep. Our youngest plays the same thing over and over again, but its not a big deal because the meditations are long and calming (compare that to all your other kids noise making things...this is worth every penny!) ...as a parent, this think has helped everyone calm down as well as keep a general sense of calmness and its a great "voice" for them to be listening to, that they actually are choosing to listen to, and is sending them a good message about how they act and react...worth every penny.

Okay, I admit I initially balked at the price. It seemed like more than I'd want to spend for basically a sound machine. We were having so many meltdowns and "big feelings" moments that we could not diffuse, no matter what strategy we tried, and a friend recommended the Zenimal. In a moment of desperation, I stopped caring that it was expensive because I was willing to trying anything. Well, guess what. It's worth it. It works. I'd pay the price for it again and again and again. My little one actually enjoys the mindfulness activities and has commented, "This music makes me feel sleepy." Favorite settings are Sleep, Relaxation, and Restoration. It's worked great for bedtime. We're incorporating it into more situations, like moments of frustration in the day to practice diffusing the big feelings using the mindfulness. Also, it's adorable and perfectly sized for kids. The silicone cover is very wise because it's been tossed in frustration and has also accidentally fallen out of bed because LO falls asleep cuddling it. It still works great. Thanks, Zenimal!

My kids are obsessed with these. They use them every night to help put them to sleep. I can hear a plane in their room every single night and I've had a lot less times where they're yelling for me to come in and soothe them. Highly recommended and ended up purchasing one for each of my three children after the success of my first child.
