Soothe your child into a restful, relaxing nap or night of sleep with the Sleep Sheep from Cloud b. This soft and adorable sleep time pal plays calming sounds that help drown out distracting noises and let baby drift into dreams.  Four Soothing Sounds
Winner of several industry awards, including the National Parenting Council's Seal of Approval and the iParenting Media Award, the Sleep Sheep is plush and very cuddly, so it immediately gives a restless child something pleasing and calming to hold on to. It also creates a tranquil environment with four soothing sounds, from Mother's heartbeat (a steady thumping) to the gentle rhythms of nature. You and baby will both relax as you listen to the quiet stream, spring showers, swooshing ocean waves and harmonious whale sounds, making the Sleep Sheep a kind of audio pacifier that helps take some of the stress and crankiness out of rest time. Perfect for Naptime
Many babies find it hard to settle in their cribs when noises from both inside and outside the house distract and disrupt them. They crave repetitive, comforting rhythms that don't frighten them. The Sleep Sheep creates a kind of white noise that blocks out the other surrounding sounds, so babies can be lulled into sleep. This parents-little-helper also comes with a Velcro tab so you can secure the Sleep Sheep to the outside of a crib. User-Friendly Operation
The Sleep Sheep features user-friendly operation that both big and little hands can handle. Select sounds by simply pressing the push button, and then choose the most comfortable volume. For added convenience and to save battery power, the sounds automatically time out after 23 minutes--enough time for baby to fall into a comfortable and restorative sleep. Compact and lightweight, the Sleep Sheep stands 12 inches tall and takes two "AA" batteries (included). The sound box removes if your child simply wants to use the Sleep Sheep as a stuffed toy, and clean-up is a snap--just wipe the surface with soap and water. About Cloud b

Amazon.com Hands-On Review
As any parent of babies knows, sleep is a precious, precious commodity. Scores of books and articles have been written on the subject, and one of the first questions any parent will hear, after "How cute! How old? Boy or girl?" is, "Does she sleep through the night?" Babies aren't designed to sleep through the night in their early months, but eventually, they can sleep for longer blocks of time. And this is when parents will do just about anything to lengthen those snooze hours. The Sleep Sheep might just be the most effective sleep aid in a parent's tool belt. It sure is the cutest! Standing (or rather, sitting) just 11 inches tall, this cuddly lamb can be attached with Velcro strips to baby's crib. Tucked in its back is an audio box with four soothing sounds from nature: a heartbeat, a spring rainfall, the ocean, and whale songs. Push a button, adjust the volume, and sneak out of the nursery while the Sleep Sheep does its job, playing a full 23 minutes of snooze-inducing sound. Did you catch that? It's important: twenty-three minutes! So many sound machines only play for five minutes or so. Our woolly friend knows it can take longer than that for some babies to fall asleep. Beyond "White Noise"
Music can be too stimulating. The whirring of a fan can be effective, but, well, breezy. And regular house noise, especially with an older sibling or too, can be distracting or downright disruptive to sleep. What babies need are relaxing, repetitive sounds. And when those sounds are housed in a huggable package, so much the better! Mother's Heartbeat
What's the first sound baby hears while still in the womb? His mother's heartbeat, of course. This steady underwater thumping is bound to reassure babies, even once they're on "the outside." Spring Showers
These spring showers may never bring May flowers, but their cozy patter may bring hours of peaceful slumber. Ocean Waves
The swooshing sounds of a gentle ocean surf have the power to lull just about anybody to sleep. Whale Songs
Eerie yet harmonious, whale songs are thought to elevate mind and spirit. Even if baby doesn't know that, the lovely distant songs provide a tranquil background to sleep. The Sleep Sheep's sound box is removable, so even if space is limited, baby's soothing sleep sounds can go where she goes. A unique numbered certificate of adoption is provided for those who want to make a special place in their families for their new, valuable, sure to be beloved friend. Requires 2 AA batteries (included). --Emilie Coulter

 Good, not great November 26, 2008
Turtle77 (Monterey, CA)
This product would be perfect if it had a continuous setting. We use the 45 minute option exclusively. It helps our four week old get to sleep, but he always wakes up when the noise turns off. We have to wake up and push the button again for him to settle back down. I would buy something different with the option to stay on all night.

Judie Fay (Cazenovia, NY)
I like that this straps on to the outside of the crib so the baby can't bury her face in it. Soothing sounds will hopefully lull her to sleep when she moves out of her parent's room into her own room.
LOVE THE SLEEP SHEEP! November 20, 2008
Rachael P. (new york, ny United States)
This is a GREAT invention. My son didn't have much trouble falling asleep at home, but the car was another story all together. If he was tired and due for a nap and we were driving he would cry and cry. Once we got this and I used it at night at home to help him fall asleep, he associated the calming sounds with sleep. The big test was a 4 hour car ride and after some initial fuss, he actually fell asleep after my soothing and turning on the sleep sheep. I was so relieved. We don't use it every night at home, but on most occasions we do and I think this really helps him feel secure and calm.

Young Professional
My home is so quiet at night, apart from random outside noise and my cats going nuts at various hours. In order to help my daughter sleep through this crazy times, this item helps create the soothing white noise that will help her stay asleep when I put her in her crib.
 We use it even before baby :) October 15, 2008
Reviewer (Chico, California United States)
I really like the sheep - it's the cutest womb-sound making toy that I have seen (I didn't want a bear). I like that there are four different sounds and the rain one is really good. I think the womb sound could have been better / more realistic, thus the four stars. I highly recommend this product.
