Waking up kids is easy with Zazoo Kids Photo Clock - review

In my house, mornings can be stressful. When it is dark and chilly outside, no one wants to wake up on the right side of the bed. I can't blame the kids. I would love to spend a day snuggled under the cozy sheets and dreaming of a warm beach. Unfortunately, reality is here and we have to get up. Still, no one wants to wake up to a buzzing alarm, especially a child. That's why there's a way for kids to wake up that starts the day nice, Zazoo Photo Clock.

ZaZoo Photo Clock is a multi-media device that can help kids (and parents) get more sleep time. The pictures on the clock show kids that it is time for sleep or if it's time to rise and shine. Parents have a variety of setting options in addition to a traditional alarm clock. From customizing photos to music, all the options are at your fingertips.

If you have a child who hates laying down for naps, the ZaZoo can give kids parameters to stay in their rooms for a specific duration. If you kids are a little older, the device can be programmed for nightly reading times. Personally, I would have loved this item when my kids were taking naps. I always hated the "mom can I come down now?"  With the ZaZoo, I could have programmed the 45 minutes into the device and the kids would know when time was up.

Here are the features of Zazoo Photo Clock.

• Photo Alarms, set the awake and asleep photos to your alarm times. 
• Nap-Time Setting: photos can show awake or sleep time. If your child is older, use the setting for homework or reading time. 
• Alarm Clock: Set the audible alarm to music or traditional tone
• Digital Photo Gram: Rotate your photos on the 7 inch screen.
• Music: Listen to your own music or play the 11 built in children's music songs
• Clock and Calendar: Frame can be used as a traditional clock. 
• Video: View video clips on your photo clock
• Accessories: Included are a remote control and USB cord. 

We've been trying to get the kids responsible for getting up on their own in the mornings. Don't get me wrong, I love seeing them curled in their beds. Still, the kids need to understand 5 more minutes doesn't cut it when we have to leave for a swim meet. We have set the pictures to swim related prizes to keep them motivated to get out of the bed. I look forward to customizing the ZaZoo for birthdays, holidays and more. 

The Zazoo Photo Clock can be purchased online at http://shop.zazookids.com/ or at select retailers.  There are a variety of styles for both boys and girls. Also, one can be completely personalized.

Stop fighting with kids over naptime, reading time and getting up in the morning. Make them feel like a grown up with their own alarm from ZaZoo Photo Clock.
