I’m a sleep editor — here are the 5 Prime Day deals I’d buy to help my kids rest well at night

A decent tower fan helps keep your kids' bedroom temperature optimized for sleep. With an average rating of 4.9 stars, customers rate this one from MORENTO for being cooling and quiet with a handy remote and app timer control, so you can turn your little one's fan on without having to creep into their bedroom.

Whether you have air con or not, a comfortable cooling pillow is a game-changer for your kids' sleep comfort during the summer months and beyond. We love this one from Coop, the brand behind some of the best pillows on the market, for its cooling credentials and adjustable fill.

I bought this YOTO player for my son a few years ago and it's been such a welcome addition to our bedtime routine, and a piece of kit that has grown with him. You buy audio book cards for bedtime storytelling (with available cards spanning from baby books up to YA), but it also plays sleep sounds and doubles as a nightlight.

What I love about this portable black out blind is that it doesn't require any drilling or permanent fixings, so it travels with you. As well as using it in our kids' bedroom during the bright summer months, I always pack a portable blackout blind when travelling with the kids. It's cheap but hugely effective at blocking our light.

When you use a blackout blind to block out the harsh summer rays, it can mean your child missing their natural wake-up cues from the rising sun. To combat that, I use a sunrise alarm clock to help pull my kids out of deep sleep. Hatch is the brand behind the best sunrise alarm clocks on the market, and their baby night light doubles as a nighttime and wake light cue. A $6.99 monthly Hatch description unlocks premium sleep features, such as audio and sleep guidance.

If you don't already have a decent fan to help your kids sleep through this swelteringly hot heatwave, you need one. This one from Dimplex is an investment but you stand to save a hefty £76 this Prime Day. We love the dual control feature of this fan, which means it can kick out cooling air in two directions at once, with a maximum 20 meter range.

We love that this pillow is hypoallergenic, breathable and antibacterial, which means it's a great option for hot little sleepers with allergies. This pillow has been designed to support those aged between 2 and 4, helping cradle growing necks and heads. There's 15% off for Prime Day, which takes the price down to £27.
