I waited to review this owl until I actually used it consistently. My little one is 3 months old and I've been putting her to sleep with the same song and stars every night. She absolutely loves it, I normally use it only at bedtime but today she was having a really hard time I turned it on and she instantly relaxed. She is my third and I wish I'd had it with my other two. Great product!!
What you receive:
One (1) soft plush owl with plastic removable battery pack/music light fixture.
3 batteries.
Small screwdriver.
Both Granddaughter and Grandma are in love with this product!
Pros -
Removable battery pack.
3 levels of volume control.
Multiple gentle songs and soothing sounds.
Beautiful Rotating colored stars.
Washable Owl when battery pack is removed.
Cushioned Velcro strap to prevent child from getting scratched by the sides of the rough Velcro strip.
Cons -
The lights. Yes. The lights are very bright. The first thing a child wants to do when holding this is look into the little holes to look at the bright lights. They are extremely bright which is great for the wall or ceiling, but not little eyes.
Recommendation to the manufacturer. Possibly a snap on frosted filter removable so a child can hold and play with it, without the scare of the bright lights directly in their eyes.
The Velcro strap -
When hanging from Grandma’s medical bed, the owl faces down onto her bed. She has to hold it up for it to aim at the ceiling or wall. Which kinda defeats the purpose of putting one to sleep.
With the granddaughter’s crib (and we don’t have aa big fancy crib) the strap is not long enough and does not fit around the top horizontal rail where the stars could at least display on the wall. The strap only fits around the vertical rails but then it slides down to the bottom of the crib where the stars either display on the floor or on the mattress, depending on if you put owl inside or outside the crib. With not wanting the baby to look directly into the lights, we hang it outside the crib. This also defeats the purpose of putting one to sleep by watching the stars.
Recommendation to Manufacturer: instead of one Velcro strip that attaches to itself (like a wristband), I recommend the strap be longer and attaches to a connecting piece of Velcro down lower on the owl, the butt area. This would then allow it to fit most crib horizontal rail and allow it to be strapped laying on top of the rail facing the ceiling somstars can be displayed and viewed. As it is made right now, the only way for it to be displayed on the ceiling is holding it, or laying it on its back propped up somehow and away from the baby.
It is still an amazing product but one needs to work at getting it to do, what it is supposed to do.
Which shouldn’t have to happen
This owl saved our lives!! I never leave reviews but I had to for this item. We were really struggling with sleep training our son. Before we knew it, he was 10 months old and still not sleeping in his crib. I almost gave up until I found the Bubzi! My son loves the lights and all the lullabies. I also love the fact that the songs and lights last 30 minutes. Enough time for him to fall asleep on his own!
This owl is awesome!!! My daughter is almost two and has never been a good sleeper. She has always fought going to sleep and woke up several times at night. The music helps her relax and she LOVES the lights! With this owl, she goes to sleep easier and stays asleep. I think the relaxing time helps her sleep better. When she does wake at night we just turn the owl back on and she settled back down quickly! This is a great buy and I wish I had it sooner!
My wife stumbled on to this product and bought it for our newborn. Because it came with a defect we didn’t know, we just thought because we used it too much for our baby that it drained the battery in a matter of days. When we contacted Bubzi Co, they replied right away and sent us another one. If only I could film my baby’s reaction in the dark everytime he sees the stars and falls asleep with the music. It’s one of those happy moments for every parent!

Super Easy to Operate

The little stuffed owl is adorable. And the music box type music soothes the baby. But I can't give it five stars because it has one huge drawback-it only plays music for 30 minutes. It would be perfect if it had options that could be set. My granddaughter is not completely asleep in the half hour and the second it stops playing she starts crying. She is a very light sleeper and the lack of sound awakens her as easily as any sudden noise. We have tried sneaking into her room at the 20 minute mark and turning it off then back on the another 30 minutes. This sometimes work but she often catches us.
My baby loves it. Lots of nursery rymes. The only downfall is that you have to click one button to change the song. It is like surfing the radio. Click, click, click, click, click, click theres the song i wanted. It turns off after 20 minutes to save batteries. Which is good and bad. Saves batteries but baby doesn't like it when it shuts off and shes not asleep. The stars that project are crisp and clear better that another one i have for her room.
This is the best thing ever! Not only is it super soft and easy to clean off with a damp wash cloth but the sound and light piece comes out for easy replacement of batteries and safety (in case my child just wants to cuddle). Not only are the lights perfect for a crib but they also change colors and shapes. My L.O. was asleep within 10 minutes of watching the lights (bedtime usually takes about 30mins). I would totally purchase again !
My son was sick while on vacation and we left his sound machine at home. I wanted to get him a plush that played music, had a decent white noise sound, had a light display show, and was washable. This fit the bill! It is a little expensive for a toy but I think its worth the money. The music is soft and pleasant. The white noise is also pleasant which is important since some white noise machines are obnoxious and don't sound as good as the dohm air machines. The light show is really fun and shows several colors at once, changes colors, and the lights actually rotate around. I love that you can take the sound box out and wash the whole unit since kids are gross and toys get dirty. The owl has a little velcro loop in the back so you can hang it up on the crib, pack n' play, or stroller. You can turn up the sound using the buttons on the front, turn on just the light, just the sound or play them both at once. I really like that you can play one or the other because sometimes when my son wakes up in the middle of the night I just want to play the music without the lights. Overall this toy seems well made and I'm really glad we purchased it. My son really likes it and it helps him get to sleep.
I like that this is neither male or female oriented, and that the color scheme is fairly neutral. It doesn't necessarily match anything but it wouldn't clash with really any theme. I bought this for my best friend's bday and she's having a baby boy in February.
I saw some reviews that said it can't be turned off until the 30 minute timer is up, but it turned off fine. Very cute, and it's great that you can take the battery pack out to wash the owl. Also, cutest little screwdriver ever.
