Better than Twilight Turtle – I had both
I was so torn between Tranquil Turtle and Twilight Turtle that I bought both to use for a week to see which one my baby preferred. I was hoping he’d like the starry Twilight Turtle because it’s considerably cheaper, but in the end when put side by side, my baby invariably chose the watery Tranquil Turtle. He loves it and it is quite beautiful. It plays a new-agey music loop that isn’t annoying. It is now a permanent staple of our bedtime routine.ProsUnlike the Twilight Turtle which is stationary, there is gentle movement displayed on your child’s ceiling. It is mesmerizing to my baby. Also, there is a dial on the bottom of the turtle to adjust the brightness, and the ability to change the volume of the music. The Twilight Turtle does not have music which is another reason we ultimately went with the Tranquil Turtle despite price difference. My 10 month old quickly learned to press the small buttons to turn the turtle on and sooth himself back to sleep.ConsThey lose a star because it only plays for 23 minutes. At the very least it should play for 30 minutes. Also, the when the battery is running low the light flashes on and off. Not the best when you have a sleepy babe in your arms and realize you can’t readily change the battery (which requires a screwdriver). I would rather it just not turn on at all than suddenly turn the nursery into a strobe-light disco.Overall we love this turtle and it matches our coral reef themed nursery perfectly. It would make a great gift but does come with a rather hefty price tag. It’s worth it though.
Adorable
We love tranquil turtle, the pattern on the ceiling is so soothing, the sound could be louder but we use a different sound machine that stays on all night, so for us thats no big deal. If you want the sound to be loud than this probably isn’t the product for you, we were more interested in the waves on the ceiling, which my son loves.
We own two!
This is the second one of these we have bought. Our daughter loved hers so much that we got one for our son. It’s very tranquil and works as a good self-timed nightlight.
