Is the Crayola Llama Tabletop Kids Night Light worth buying?

Save yourself the fifteen dollars and the mild heartbreak — a pretty night light that doesn’t actually light anything is just a small plastic animal with a cord. Here’s the thing nobody tells you about toddler night fears: the light is only half the solution. The other half is giving your kid some sense of control — a light they can reach, a brightness they can adjust, something that feels like theirs . Every option on this list that actually worked in our house had that in common. The ones that flopped were the ones my daughter could only look at, not interact with. Worth keeping in mind when you’re shopping. If you’ve found something that works for your scared-of-the-dark kid that I haven’t covered here, I’d genuinely love to hear about it in the comments — partly because I’m always looking for the next thing to test, and partly because my daughter is already eyeing a new projector and I need ammunition for why we don’t need it. (We probably need it.) Sleep well, friends.
