Bear Night Lights

A bear night light softly lights the bedroom in the shape of a little bear: in silicone to cuddle, as a plush toy, plug-in, as a crystal ball, with the child's name or as a day/night alarm clock. All our bear night lights can be placed in the bedroom from birth.

Which bear night light to choose? Our models compared

A bear night light comes down to three points: its material (silicone, plush, crystal, acrylic), its power source (rechargeable, batteries, USB cable or plug) and how it switches on (touch, remote control, dusk sensor). The table sets out what each product page says, from the lowest price to the highest.

Every product page in this table states CE and RoHS certification.

Silicone, plush or decorative teddy bear night light: what is the difference?

A silicone bear night light is for cuddling and carrying around, the glowing plush bear doubles as a comforter, and the crystal ball and the name night light decorate a shelf or chest of drawers. The plug-in night light switches itself on at nightfall in the bedroom or hallway, and the alarm clock shows the child whether it is still night-time.

The silicone bear night light, to cuddle and carry around

Silicone is soft, fits in a small hand and follows the child from the bedroom to the hallway. Several of our silicone teddy bears switch on with a press and change colour at a touch; the Remote Control Teddy Bear Night Light can be operated from a distance. Several can be handled from 18 months, according to their product page. Other animals in this format are gathered in our rechargeable night light collection.

The plush bear night light, a comforter that lights up

The Teddy Bear Plush Night Light is a fabric teddy, 30 or 40 cm tall, that glows from the inside with a simple press and runs on batteries. Its product page states handling from 3 years. More glowing cuddly toys are waiting in our plush night light collection.

Crystal ball, name, plug-in or alarm clock

• Crystal ball: a teddy bear engraved in 3D inside an 8 cm sphere, on a wooden base, powered by USB. It is a decorative piece for a shelf.
• With a name: the teddy bear and the child's name engraved on a lit acrylic panel, 7 colours. A birth gift that stays in the bedroom.
• Plug-in: two little bears plugged into the wall, with a dusk sensor that switches them on and off for you.
• Alarm clock: the moon shows from 7 pm to 7 am, then the sun announces the morning, a signal the child understands before being able to tell the time. With 6 white noise sounds and a dual alarm.

Which teddy bear night light for your baby's age?

From birth, all our bear night lights can light the bedroom, placed out of baby's reach: the parent switches them on. The age that changes the choice is the one at which the child can pick up the night light: 18 months or 3 years, depending on the model's product page.

• Under 18 months: choose a model you can adjust without putting it in the cot. The remote control of the Remote Control Teddy Bear, the dusk sensor of the plug-in night light or the 30 min timer of the Silicone Baby Bear let you adjust or switch off the night light without putting it in the cot.
• From 18 months: the Silicone Teddy Bear, the Silicone Baby Bear, the Polar Bear and the Cordless Bear can go into the child's hands, according to their product page. They are touch-controlled: one press is enough to switch on or change colour.
• From 3 years: the teddy bear plush, the Remote Control Teddy Bear, the crystal ball, the name night light, the day/night bear alarm clock, the plug-in teddy bear night light, as well as the LED Teddy Bear and the Bear for Kids, which run on button batteries.

To find out more, our guide what age should a baby use a night light sets out the milestones by age. For an older child who wants a different theme, see our kids' night light collection.

Charging, batteries and care of a bear night light

A bear night light is recharged by USB, runs on batteries or plugs in, depending on the model: check the “Power” column of the table before choosing. A rechargeable night light can be carried around without a cable; a plugged-in night light stays in place but never needs recharging. The product pages of the Silicone Teddy Bear, the Polar Bear and the teddy bear plush specify an LED that does not heat up.

Rechargeable, batteries or cable

• Rechargeable: the Silicone Teddy Bear states 6 h of battery life and charges via USB-C; the Remote Control Teddy Bear states up to 30 h on low mode. The Polar Bear, the Cordless Bear and the bear alarm clock are rechargeable too.
• Batteries: the teddy bear plush runs on batteries. The LED Teddy Bear and the Bear for Kids run on button batteries: keep out of reach of children (button batteries, small parts).
• Plugged in: the crystal ball and the name night light plug in by USB, the plug-in teddy bear night light goes straight into a wall socket. Place them on a stable piece of furniture, with the cable out of the child's reach.

Cleaning a bear night light

For a silicone night light, a soft, slightly damp cloth is enough; do not put it in water, as it contains a rechargeable battery or batteries. A glowing plush toy contains an electronic module and batteries: do not put it in the washing machine without checking that this module can be removed.
