Alarms and night lights don’t have to be boring. There are smarter, more intelligent versions of these gadgets around, and a few products pack both functionalities into a single convenient device.
The Amazon Echo Glow is one such option. It’s basically a bedside lamp that also lets kids (or you) create lighting cues for different tasks, set reminders, put alarms, play with light modes, and a lot more. The newest Echo Glow is also currently discounted by 33% on Amazon for Prime members, which drops its already-affordable $30 price to only $20. If you’ve been thinking of grabbing one for your kids’ room and have a Prime subscription, you can save $10 on your purchase today.
Different dynamic modes to choose from
Echo Glow is so much more than just another bedside lamp. Well, it “glows” like one at night, but is also a sunrise alarm that gradually gets brighter until it’s time to wake up in the morning. This way, kids get a gentler start to the day instead of being startled by a really loud, almost-scary alarm clock. It also slowly fades off in the evening to help children prepare for bedtime, which again, is a gentler, easier way to introduce routines.
Beyond these basic functions, Echo Glow lets you create lighting cues for different chores around the house. You can also use it to set reminders or color-changing countdown timers. It syncs nicely with Echo devices, which means you can control it completely hands-free with Alexa. So, for example, if playtime is coming to an end, and you want kids to quickly tidy up the room, simply say “Alexa, set a Rainbow Timer for 10 minutes on Glow”. The colors will change as the timer counts down, which will give your little ones visual cues about the remaining time and help them stay on track.
There’s a wide range of dynamic modes to choose from, such as color flow, campfire, siren, firetruck, underwater, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and Valentine’s Day. Lights can even react to music and sound – great for indoor parties! The setup is fairly straightforward. You only need to plug the Echo Glow in and follow some quick on-screen instructions on the Alexa app, which shouldn’t take more than a few minutes!
If you have a Prime membership, you can grab the latest Amazon Echo Glow for just $20 at Amazon, after a nice 33% discount, which saves you $10 off the list price. It’s an excellent chance to grab this smart lamp for less right now, but it won’t be here for long. Snap up yours now, while the offer is still available!
