Product Description

Crayola, the leader in helping kids express their creativity, brings the world of music to kids. Kids will feel "all grown up" with their own radio and alarm clock. And parents will love the help in getting kids up and ready for school. This brightly colored, inviting unit includes a clock radio with AM/FM radio that allows kids to wake to the radio, an alarm buzzer, or even a personalized message that they can record. The 10 second voice message recorder lets them record their own first-thing-in the-morning reminder, a favorite joke, or verse, or personal message! Replaceable patterns on the front panel let kids customize their own look. Station presets make finding the right station easy. There's even a gradual wake system, and a snooze function for that little bit of extra sleep. An adjustable sleep timer lets kids drift off to music. There's even an auto-switching 3-color night light. Back-up battery remembers the time and alarm setting in the event of a power failure, and will activate the alarm. AC power with AC adapter included. Back up power requires 4 AA batteries (not included).

Customer Reviews

Cute but bright, loud and difficult
Ususally I research equipment via internet reviews and Consumer Reports, but this item got me with its namebrand recognition and trust that usually accompanies a Crayola product's purchase. I was also desperate for a kid's alarm clock for my three-year old who is not a morning person.

As another customer stated, the directions are written poorly, and I'm techo savvy. It was by accident that I figured out how to record our voices to use as a wake-up sound. The regular alarm is a very loud, scary beeping.

The colorful nightlight is not soothing or restful, unless you like a rock concert laser-bright light-show paced at a seizure inducing rate to fall asleep to. And the two brightness settings for the actual time display, (besides OFF) are just that, BRIGHT and BRIGHTER.

The radio reception is terrible and sometimes there is a thump-thumping when I turn it on. I figured out how to get rid of it once, it was an odd series of resetting something, BUT THIS SHOULDN'T BE THE CASE.

There is nothing on this item that is similar to the many semi-standardized functions we've all become familiar with on our Emerson, Sony, etc. clock-radios. AFter four months of it, I'm throwing it out.

Crayola Clock
I bought this clock for my 6 year old daughter for Xmas and was a little disappointed. Overall it is a great first time clock for a child with the changeable front cover and music to listen to with the sleep timer but somewhat hard to use. The directions that come with it are hard to see and just give pictures. I had a hard time programming it and thought it was broken becuase I was not able to set the alarm or get it to record my daughters message. But with trial and error figured it out. What was most disappointing was that I understood the clock to have the ability to have music as the wake up for the alarm but that is not the case. Only the buzzer which my daughter does not like becuase it is too loud.
