About this deal

Our son is a sensory seeker and so he often needs light and sound to feel safe. Some of these products will not work for children who may need to reduce sensory stimulation to sleep. Marpac Dohm DS Dual Speed Sound Conditioner We were told by Tommee Tippee that it states in their instructions that the blinds shouldn't be used for extended periods, but the blind we got didn't come with instructions!! Also even in the link they sent I couldn't find this info!! We both have a script that we use, with goodnight phrases that are exactly the same every night. Matt tells him that he is our “super special little chap” and to make sure he “looks after teddy” in the night. I always ask “How much do I love you?”. Biggest’s response is “As much as the whole world” and I always answer “And even more than that gorgeous boy. Goodnight.” It is exactly the same, every night.

Starting with an upper corner of the window, work across the top first, then down the sides, and finally along the bottom. Moisten the inner rim of the suction. A bit of water on your finger is the most common way. Please remember not to moisten the rim too much! Just enough to coat the surface of the rim - if the suction cups slide after pressing down, you have used too much water Children obviously aren’t idiots, and it doesn’t stop them spotting that its still light out of other windows like the bathroom. There’s only so much a product can do though, its not a miracle worker! lol 🙂 Press the center of each suction cup all the way down firmly to the glass and keep firm pressure for about 15 seconds. Then gently release the pressure until all the air bubbles inside are released, to firmly seal the cups to the surface. You’re trying to push all of air trapped between the suction cup and the window out from behind the suction cup. Try not to let the suction cups slide. If they slide easily you might have used too much moisture.If the suction cup has become flattened or deformed, place it carefully in hot water for 2-3 minutes. This will help ‘make it more flexible, allowing it to return to its normal shape. Have you had something similar happen to you? Did you know this?

Just to help make rooms darker then it's down in the morning.' You can safely apply a Gro Anywhere Blind to normal single or double-glazed windows in good condition.

Gro Anywhere Blind REVIEW - Real Mum Reviews

Her glass oven shattered due to tea towels being hung on the bar in front of it. Engineer said that was why – trapping a build up of heat! Be careful everyone.' Please do not pull on the blind to remove it from your window. Not only do you risk damaging the blind and eyelets, but you could damage the window itself.If necessary, wash the suction cups with warm, soapy water, rinse and pat them dry with a lint-free cloth.. Make sure both the inside of the suction cups and your window are clean and dry before application.

You’re trying to push all of air trapped between the suction cup and the window out from behind the suction cup. Try not to let the suction cups slide. If they slide easily you might have used too much moisture. We’ve been using it every single night for three weeks now and it has stopped our three-year-old from coming into our room early in the morning. To improve suction and help keep the seal tight, dampen your fingertip with water and lightly moisten the inner rim of the suction cup. This helps create a tighter seal. The key is to not get too much moisture… just barely enough to coat the surface.

Will you be claiming the VAT back?

It can be notoriously difficult for children on the spectrum to get to sleep. What’s more, no one really knows why. Some believe it may be related to lower melatonin levels, or perhaps sensory issues, but even doctors do not fully understand what the issue may be. We have been fairly fortunate in that, although Biggest does wake fairly often, his rigidity of thought and strong routine means that he usually stays in bed. However, over the last few years we have found a few products and developed a few strategies that I believe have helped him get to this point. An autism friendly bedroom and bedtime routine may help some children with sleep difficulties but many parents may have tried everything, with little success.

Routine can have a hugely positive affect on all children. As it happens, my husband and I are very much creatures of habit and we cannot function without clear routines ourselves. Our approach will not work for every family, but many may find some of the things useful, and may be able to adapt them to suit their family life. The bedtime routine is exactly the same, every time. His sister goes up for her bath at 7 pm, he has a bath at 7.15 pm. He has a bath every single day. This may seem like more than is needed, and difficult to maintain, but we have found it is an excellent signal for him. He always has a bath at 7.15. He always goes to bed straight afterwards. The certainty gives him comfort and the sensory cues tell his body it is time to sleep soon. Most days I was taking them down after each nap, but on that one day she'd woken at about 2/3pm and I'd left them up until the evening.If you have needed to resize the blind then you may just need to smooth the fabric out a little around the edges to cover any bits of light peaking through. Make sure the window you want to attach the blind to is clean, especially where you’re going to attach the suction cups. I had this exact one and I definitely remember reading that it couldn't be used in direct sunlight for long, because of this issue (I can't remember if it was in safety instructions, or if I found it online though). The suction cups also curl up in the heat rendering it useless.'
