You may recall that I had the pleasure of reviewing Tiny Love's My Nature Pal Stroll a few months ago. My little guy really enjoys his Stroll, so when Tiny Love released their Magical Night Baby Mobile I had a feeling he'd love it as well.
You might be thinking, why would a toddler want a mobile? Well, Tiny Love has ingeniously designed the Magical Night to be so much more than just a mobile! It's actually a 3-in-1 mobile, projector and night light! It's designed for children 1-24+months and goes from newborn to toddler in just a few easy steps. Tiny Love sent me their new Magical Night mobile to review:
Since my little guy is so active, I usually save assembly projects for nap time, but I just had to peek into the box once it arrived. Since it looked pretty simple to put together, I decided to just give it a go right then and there. I'm happy to report that the Magical Night was really easy to assemble, and I had it ready to play within minutes. Of note, you will need 4 C batteries (not included).
I decided to first test this out as a mobile, complete with the canopy and dangling characters. Aren't the owl, giraffe, and monkey adorable? They are brightly colored and just so cute! They easily attach to the canopy thanks to their hook and loop closure.
This mobile is designed for babies 0-5 months. They'll love looking at the dangling, rotating characters, and they'll also enjoying the soothing sounds of the mobile. There are 3 different music categories with 9 tunes in all. The music will play continuously for 30 minutes, and you can adjust the volume (or use the mute feature). That's not all though - you can even use the projector feature when in "mobile mode". Since baby is quite nearsighted at this point and their vision is still developing, the canopy will "catch" the projected image so baby can see it.
Once your baby turns 5 months old, you can easily remove the mobile feature and use the Magical Night as a portable music box with projector. My little guys is obsessed with touching the buttons on his Magical Night (to the point he gets too distracted to relax and fall asleep), so I usually set it on the dresser next to his crib. He loves watching the projector! The images of giraffes, monkeys, and owls circling around fascinate him.

Although the wubba usually sleeps through the night without a problem, there have been a few nights where he's woken up and just will not be lulled back to sleep. We don't have traditional night lights, so when this has happened in the past, I've just turned on lights in the hallway or a dim light in his room.
A few weeks ago when he woke up at 1 AM, we used the Magical Night projector to calm and soothe him a bit. It didn't put him right back to sleep, but it illuminated the room enough so that we could see each other. He was comforted by my being there. He watched the projector and listened to the music for a few hours before finally falling back to sleep, but I was really thankful to have the Magical Night Baby Mobile that night.
Once your little one is a bit older (12-24 months+) you can use the Tiny Love Magical Night as a Starry Night Lamp. Just place the canopy on the attached post and you'll have a bedside night light/lamp that will project stars into the room. Again, you could use this with or without the musical feature.
Overall, my little guy has really been enjoying the Tiny Love Magical Night Baby Mobile. I'd highly recommend this product to anyone in the market for a mobile that will grow with their child.

Brewer Family says
This is so cute! I think my baby would love it!
Nikki Blanchard says
to cute
Karis says
I love how this grows with your child! I hate to buy things that can only be used for a couple of months.
Tiffany Schmidt says
I really appreciate how there are multiple options to change stimulation for baby. My children were nearly opposites when it came to calming them, so I like seeing variety in products!
Sam says
This looks like the ultimate in baby mobiles. I've never seen one so versatile. The lamp is my favorite feature and I absolutely LOVE the owls! Cutest little owls I've ever seen.

Angela Crimmins says
I love all the options! And how everything attaches (the velcro & the easy screw on to the crib).
Lynette Anne says
I love the whole thing! For our first kiddo, we purchased a wind-up mobile... we didn't realize they had such awesome options out there. It only made sound for about 70 seconds... so we either had to go back in to wind it up or leave it quiet. I love all the options on this one! We are expecting #2 in a few weeks and this would be a definite upgrade!
desiree reilly says
i like the mobile and then one go on the wall is neat and wish i had them with te older kids

Jutta Pearce says
This is adorable. It looks like it might be a good distraction for my little guy. He's 8 months old and stillnot sleeping through the night. But I can't have anything very noisy or bright because his 2.5 year old sister shares his room.
Annette McCormick says
I really like how this grows with your baby and all of the different option it has. It's so much better than a regular mobile.
Rachel says

This sounds so sweet and adorable! My SIL is 2 weeks away from having her very 1st baby and if I win, I will give this to her. I can just see it in the little nursery they put together. So precious!
Thanks

I love that you can attach and detach the mobile animals that is convenient and easy and how it is a projector too. It's like a night light for them until they go to sleep 🙂
smiranda says
I love that it goes from newborn to toddler. Some things seem like such a waste of money because you use them for a few months and then your baby no longer likes it. This you can use well into the toddler stage. Awesomeness!

Tiny Love definaely makes the best mobiles. I had one for my 2nd son.

Michael Lambert says
This would be great for our next child. I think it is really neat.
Kaitlynn Stout says
I love that it plays continuously for 30 minutes. I gave up on our mobile when my daughter was little because it would stop playing before she was completely asleep! The nightlight feature is great too!

Adorable characters! Very gender neutral, too! Love how it also turns into a lamp for the older kiddos.

I like how you can use it for a nightlight later on. I love products for multiple uses to last longer.

KeriLynn says
I love how the stars project on the walls, I would have loved one as a child I am sure because I loved those sticky glow stars. I have a 2 month old who would love this!
Beanybopp says
I love how this grows with your child. We bought a "cheap" mobile for our son and it would just keep dying. I love how this has a projection up on the ceiling and it would match our nursery since it is gender neutral.

Wow ! This is so cute ! I would love to have this for my six-month-old! He would love that it projects stars on the ceiling.
Crystal Davis says
I love that it turns into a lamp. Mobiles have such a short lifespan (when you are looking back and not 'in the trenches' so to speak). This feature would really extend its life.

Heather Eavers says
I like that its designed to fit on any crib.
Bunne Wisniewski says
We had the Tiny Love Classic Development Mobile with my 3 year old and he LOVED it. We left the music box part on his crib until he was almost two. It was the only thing that put him to sleep at night!!
Amber Ludwig says
I love that it lights up!! I always wondered why mobiles are so important when they can't see them at night lol!! Thankfully companies like Tiny Love think of that and illuminate it for night time 🙂 Love it!! Also love that this one can grow with your child!! So great!
Elizabeth Johnson says
I love the secirity hold the mobile. The projector is awesome as babies loves not only music and sounds and movement but lights as well. Both of these are a win.

Lisa Garland says
Love that this is easy to assemble and is 3-in-1, a mobile, projector and nightlight, totally a great deal. Also, it is very cute, great colors!
Miriam Matheny says
I have never seen mobile with so many options! I would have loved this for his bassinet when he was younger but if we had it now it would definitely have to be in the lamp form or I would find it in a million pieces in the crib after naptime!
Natasha M. says
This is adorable and love that it could be customized, another thing i love is the factor you can project it.
christina m sledge says
Cozy Rocker Napper i would love to have this for my new niece
