Sometimes, we all need a little help catching some Zzs. Whether you live on a noisy street or your child is a very light sleeper, sound machines are there to assist your little one. They block out the noisiest trucks—or even just the sounds you make walking around the house after your little one is tucked in. Sound machines have white noise options, more natural sound options and in some cases, there are even lullaby options. You can find what works for your child and helps lull them to sleep the most effectively. It might be something unexpected like a babbling brook or ocean waves.
We found the best sound machines for kids. These picks are easy to set up. They all have timers, so they won’t run all night after your child has already dozed off. One be controlled by an app on your phone, making it so you don’t have to risk waking your sleeping baby up. Some of our picks even have built-in nightlights or time-to-wake-up lights to teach your child when it’s OK to wake mom up on the weekends.
