Great product except for one thing...
By A2UJLAMYNQRKK1 on 2007-03-13
We got this for my five year old son for Christmas. He has a space-themed room and this fit in perfectly. He loves it and has it on every night. What's really great about it is that it will turn off automatically. What's not so great about it is that it just burns up the batteries! We've already had to replace the batteries three times since Christmas (and the latest batteries I put in where Energizer Lithium e2; they lasted about 3 1/2 weeks). The battery issue is the only reason I gave this product four stars instead of five.
My child has really enjoyed this
By A1VO4FI94Z8EKW on 2007-01-12
This was a Christmas gift for my 8 year old daughter who is into absolutely nothing but animals. She absolutely loves it. She turns it on every night and her and our other children go and watch it. I even watch it. It has two settings. 1. Is where it goes through the phases of the moon. I was mistaken about how this works, I thought that it went through the phases along with the moon, however, it blinks through them pretty quick. 2. The moon is just set on a single phase of the moon. I have seen them go through both of the settings, there is a small remote control that the child can set themselves. The only problem with the remote is that because of its size it can get easily misplaced, especially if your kids are like mine and would lose just about anything. My suggestion for this would be to put some velcro on the back of the remote and stick it somewhere. Also it has a sensor and turns off when the sun comes up and back on when the sun goes out. It also runs off batteries. Ours came with a cd, which I thought would be something that they could watch on the computer, but it isn't it is just talking about the moon. Overall it was a good purchase, and I would definitely recommend it for a child who is very hard to shop for.
What a neat idea!

My son became a space "expert" after his 3rd grade class studied the solar system. We've hung his moon in his room and he uses it every night. The CD is informative and well-paced for younger kids. The information is kid-friendly and helpful for learning about space and the moon. We ended up buying on for our niece, too! The Moon in My Room would work well in a classroom, as well (I'm a teacher, too). Highly, highly recommended!
Very nice idea but eats batteries way too fast...
By A3I7BOY419NC18 on 2007-10-30
Get some rechargable batteries for this because you'll need them when you realise it eats through 4 (Duracell) AAs every two/three weeks.
A disappointment considering the innovative design of this great educational night light.
Still recommended though.
My toddler loves this...
By A1LN12P55K49RU on 2007-01-01
Not the typical gift one would expect for their two year old, however, our little guy loves the moon and stars, so we couldn't resist. Its a great addition to his bedroom wall (well out of reach). It gives off a soft glow at night and can be programmed to turn off after 30 minutes. There is also a way to program it to turn on when the room gets dark, but we are avoiding this. For anyone interested in the phases of the moon, astronomy, etc, it is a fun gift.
- Much better than I expected
By A2I1W39WRN6JRL on 2007-06-03
I bought this for my niece and was very impressed at how good it looked when on. First of all it appears to use white LEDs for illumination (and lots of them too). This gives it a very realistic moon light color. The details of the moon come to life when the item is lit and the room is darkened. It looks very convincing. The remote is very easy to use and usefull too. This may be a child's toy but it looks good enought to put anywhere. I'm going to buy one for myself.
- Remote doesn't work wich is HUGE inconvenience!
By A18EOP6ZY3EX1B on 2008-01-20
We purchased this for my 6 year old for Christmas. We were very excited to get it and she was anticipating getting to see it work in her room at night. However, we have never been able to get the remote to work. Since this hangs on the wall, preferably pretty high up it is a huge inconvenience to turn it on/off. Hopefully we can get it straightened out, but very frustrating for something new and fresh out of the box.
- good night moon
By A2SFTW2F0IOSI3 on 2007-01-09
My son loves the moon in his room. We turn it on as part of his good night routine. It shuts off automatically and has no cords. Really a cool decoration for a kid's room, I would have loved it in my room, too!
- Great nightlight but be gentle!
By A3AIV5KBQV90LH on 2007-06-13
This is an awsome idea and awesome nightlight. It looks so real with the lights off. My son is 4 and sleeps in our room so I hung it on our wall. I am working on getting him back into his own room and when he takes the moon for his room I plan on getting another for ours! Only one word of caution. My little one really wanted to be hands on with it when he opened it for his birthday- well he dropped it and it stopped working! It would turn on to full moon only and we could not get it to cycle through the phases. But aside from having to have it replaced (and making it hands off) It has been a great purchase.
- Awesome!
By A3W48PXXCZAARH on 2007-01-01
Got this for my 4 yo for Christmas, and it's way cool. Looks even more awesome against his blue walls. Having trouble finding the remote, but that's user error. Great product.
- An instructional nightlight.
By AV4UD5SOM580O on 2007-03-09
The Moon in My Room is a really neat light. My son is 7 years old and just thinks its great. Every night he puts the CD it comes with in his player and turns on his moon. I also bought glow in the dark planets and stars so now he feels like he is out of this world.
- cool surprise gift
By ATHUOC36LT5IG on 2008-01-14
I purchased this gift for my 10-year-old daughter this year and it was a great hit, especially because she knew many of the other gifts she was getting. It's a nice looking addition to her room, and even serves as a temporary night light when preparing for bed. My only concern is that, after very few uses, the overall brightness seems to have diminished. The phases still light, but they are a little duller than when we first put it up. I have not yet looked to see if the bulb is loose, or if the batteries were old.
- I want the moon in my room too!!
By A5UYSVHRV83WX on 2007-01-09
Very cool. This is science and fantasy together. The light is remote controlled and comes with an informative cd. You can take the moon through all it's phases and it looks real. The best part is if you want to howl at the moon, you don't have to brave the cold night air!!
- Moon in my room
By AX89MQVK03PWD on 2007-12-26
Younger children may at first be disappointed that they don't play with it...it is to watch. I would present it as a special lamp right from the start. My daughters really loved it. I thought it might be a bit over the top but it isn't...It gives a very gentle light show and is good for kids who get hyper at bedtime...as does my oldest child ( 7).
We had a great time with it last night. It made a special end to Christmas day.
- Wonderful For all Ages
By A1QT5GEPQM1HZ4 on 2007-12-29
This toy has it all. It is educational, interesting and life like. We purchased it for my 3 year old daughter who has a fascination with the moon and stars. This is perfect. She loves turning it on at bed time and using it for a nightlight. It has an automatic shut off switch which is nice. Just a great toy.
- My daughters New Favorite Thing
By AWT8BVC7U5XUU on 2008-01-03
I hit the jackpot when i gave this to my little girl for christmas. She 2 and loves her moon. The age range for this is supposed to be 6 and up but for a night light for a younger child it is fantastic. It comes on when the lights go off and turns off on its own after an hour. When she get older shell probably enjoy the educational part of this moon more.
- Moon
By AVESHYLBPFB9F on 2008-03-09
Excellent product. The remote with automatic and manual changing of the phases is easy for my 6 year old to use. The informative cd is just the right length for him to listen to it all the way through. A great gift for any moon-watcher.
- Cool!!
By A2CTMI937M66JV on 2008-01-11
We bought this for our 3-1/2 year old son's space-themed room and also to try and get him to sleep without his lamp on all night! Well, it worked! He goes to sleep by the full moon and it shuts itself off in an hour. The first few nights he woke up and was afraid, but I kept telling him to find the remote and turn it back on if he wakes up. He is ALL about the remote! ;) I think it's really cool to be able to go through the phases....I'd recommend it. The only way it could be improved is if it could stay on all night as a nightlight!
- Awsome
By A1DE1PNAE4Q49S on 2007-03-08
I purchased this product for my 18 month old son because he just loves to point out moons and stars. He just loves it. He is finally going to sleep with out a fuss. My 5 year old daughter wants one now.
- Fun Product
By A1P5TFA3Q1SGSF on 2007-03-25
We haven't put it up on our wall yet, but my son thinks it is great.
Good design
