What’s special about the Whisbear is that it’s not just a sleep aid. To encourage sensory and fine motor development, it features rustling elements in the ears and paws, and is made from different textures of fabrics in contrasting colours. This makes it perfect for your little one to play with before they drift off. Although it might also be a distraction to them in the middle of the night, so you can choose whether or not to put it in the cot with your baby! The Grohush white noise machine can be used at home or on the go and boasts the unique feature of emitting sounds that only the baby can hear, making it ideal not only for travel but for use in shared rooms without risk of disturbing other family members. READ NEXT: The best baby toys to buy What other considerations are there when choosing a white noise machine? I timed the lullaby and music box, and they are both around 90 seconds long. And as many parents will know, that’s much longer than it takes to get through the somewhat repetitive Twinkle Twinkle Little Star when you’re singing it to the best of your ability in the dark for the millionth time!
The lower price means that you don’t get quite as much control over this white noise machine as with other devices – there are only three different noises to choose from, for example, compared to the Dreamegg’s 11. However, once you find a noise you like, chances are you’ll only ever use that one, so this shouldn’t be an issue in practice. When it comes to materials, there tend to be two camps for white noise machines. You have devices that look like cuddly toys and you have devices that look like smart speakers. Pink noise is white noise with the higher frequency sounds turned down. It’s thought to be less harsh, more natural: similar to steady rain or wind rustling through trees. Sounds that otherwise keep you awake, like neighbours talking, car doors slamming or partners snoring, may sound softer and less disturbing through pink noise. What is brown noise?The fair sound is on a 30 second loop, and basically just consists of several people talking at once. It sounds more like a market or busy café than a fair. And every 30 seconds, someone says in Spanish “no puede” which means he, she or it can’t.
The former hide a white noise speaker within a huggable form, while the latter are more likely to be propped on a surface outside the baby’s crib. There are benefits for both: cuddly toys can become a favourite of your child, but the smart speaker setup might have easier controls for adults and is much more likely to have main power. It’s also important to note that teddies and soft toys should not be placed inside a crib or attached to the side within a babies reach when they are under one year of age. This can put them at greater risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). How we test white noise machines It can also be used for younger babies but must never be placed in a cot or pram for babies less than 12 months old, as this can put infants at greater risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome). When used safely, though, this is a lovely option to have on hand – we’ve already become very fond of our SNOObear.Each is digitally created and designed to mimic a natural environment, so the sounds aren’t too harsh, even if you turn the volume right up. My baby responded best to the straight white noise, but we preferred to hear the summer night sounds playing into our room via the monitor. Like others in this list, it’s portable, but it will fit a little more snugly – and more discreetly – than the plush versions. Accompanying this, you can also select a night-light colour from the rainbow, which glows out of the roof (you can select the brightness too). Lowest brightness in red worked like a dream for us. And then you can get it to change colour when it was time to get up – this actually worked on our five year old, scoring us at least 30 minutes longer in bed each morning.
