The Original Slumber Bear by Prince Lionheart

The Original Slumber Bear from Prince Lionheart features an adorable napping teddy, holding a removable "silkie", that is able to quickly lull your baby to sleep with its unique intra-uterine heartbeat sounds. The Slumber Bear comes in pj's and a silkie in your choice of beige, pink, or ice blue (I received the beige) and is very affordable (it usually retails at around $27).

The Slumber Bear has lots of incredible features that would make it a spectacular gift for yourself or an expectant friend. The inner audio pacifier (sound box) is the only one with actual sounds recorded inside a mother's womb, soothing the baby with its familiar heartbeat sound. It has a volume control that allows you to make the sound quite high, should you need to, allowing it to mask quite a bit of noise from outdoors, and the sound box also had a five minute auto shutoff timer to save on battery life. The sound box can be placed inside the bear, or used on its own by attaching it to the side of the crib with the included velcro strap. The bear itself may also be attached to the side of the crib, out of reach of a sleeping infant, with the same strap. The best aspect of this feature? It has motion and sound sensors. If the baby wakes up and cries, or jostles the bear, it turns on again to soothe the baby back to sleep!



The silkie mini-blanket is a smooth satin cloth that is worn by either parent for a time (to transfer their scent) before being used to comfort the baby. Babies are most calm, reassured and happy when they are near the comforting, familiar scent of a parent, and this also helps to bond the baby. The entire product is very well made, a beautiful addition to a nursery. Even the sound box is attractive enough to display on its own. Prince Lionheart makes a lot of great quality products, and I'm so happy I found them. If you are looking for an adorable sound conditioner, check it out.
