Product Description

Five soothing melodies and five soothing ambient sounds, including a trickling stream and white noise, assist baby in falling asleep peacefully.
The monkey's cheeks emit a soft glow that will calm your child in the dark. You can create the ideal environment for your baby by dimming or brightening the light with the button on her tummy.
The monkey's stretchable tail can be wrapped around a stroller handle, a doorknob, or even your baby's car seat to bring a little peace wherever you go.
The battery can be recharged to keep things running smoothly! Enjoy music and sounds on the go without having to constantly replace disposable alkaline batteries;
Set the Auto-off timer to 60 minutes to avoid sneaking into the nursery after baby has fallen asleep.

Questions & Answers

Is it possible to use the product without turning on the light?

Hi - Yes, the glistening The Vtech BC8312 has an on/off switch for the ceiling light. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about our company.

Is the turtle plugged into the wall with a regular plug or a USB plug?

a standard wall receptacle

Is there a sound of a heartbeat?

Yes, it is.

What are the ten sounds that come pre-installed?

There are ten soothing sounds pre-installed on the device. White Noise, Stream, Crickets, Vacuum cleaner, Heartbeat, Traffic, Shhh, Washing Machine, Hair Dryer, and Shower are some of the sounds you might hear. You can get a couple more by installing the VTech Tommy app. It appeals to me.

Selected User Reviews For VTech BC8211 Myla The Monkey Baby Sleep Soother with a White Noise Sound Machine Featuring 5 Soft Ambient Sounds, 5 Calming Melodies & Soft-Glow Night Light

I like that I can pick and choose what gets downloaded and that I can record my own stories! This was a gift for my four-month-old daughter, and she absolutely adores it! For the price, I was surprised at how small it is, but the quality and features are excellent
5/5

The downloadable Wyatt the Whale app is by far the coolest part of this, as it allows you to pick and choose from the preloaded songs, sounds, and stories, and arrange them in any order you want. I like that you can pick and choose from the preloaded items. About 15 songs, 3 sounds, and 10 stories were chosen. You must connect to wifi and use the provided password the first time you use the app. The total time spent listening to the songs, sounds, and stories must not exceed 45 minutes. There are four different color settings for the lights, which project steadily on the ceiling and work well as a night light. The stars will turn off after about 30 minutes, but the music, sounds, and stories will continue to play for as long as you want them to. You can choose from at least 25 different song melodies in the music sounds. There are at least 20 different noise sounds to choose from, such as a fan, ocean, rain, heartbeat, and so on. Many of the sounds were irritating to me, so I only programmed the fan, ocean, and rain into ours. br>br>My favorite feature is the ability to record yourself reading stories into the whale. "Guess How Much I Love You," one of our favorite stories, is one that I recorded myself reading. Because you only have a 7-minute recording window per story, you'll want to pick short stories. We use it every night, and it's one of my favorite baby purchases; in fact, I bought one for a pregnant friend.

Loops can be a nuisance
3/5

The sounds and music quality are good, but the loops are distracting, so I bought it primarily as a white noise machine. I chose this sound machine because I thought I'd be able to control it from my phone. br>br>I also picked this sound machine because I thought I'd be able to control it from my phone. br>br>Baby is almost asleep, then the loop is so obvious that he looks at the machine. br>br>I also picked this sound machine because I thought I'd be able to control it from my phone. Unfortunately, the only thing you can do with your phone is download sounds, stories, and songs. It's a bit of a pain to set up because it keeps telling you you're not connected when you are. You can also record your own story or song, which I enjoy doing, but I'm disappointed that I can't control it from my phone. Finally, "glow-in-the-dark" is mentioned in the title. night light for the ceiling " This isn't the case at all. Nothing projects onto the ceiling except a soft light from the turtle's belly. I was expecting something along the lines of star projections, but there isn't anything like that.

The best option out of a slew of mediocre alternatives
3/5

In a market full of low-quality baby soothers and projectors, the whale is the best. br>br>CON: if you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, this is not the place The ability to connect to the internet via WiFi is deceiving. It isn't a true Wifi device, so it won't connect to your network. It creates its own wifi network with only a few feet of range. Your phone must be in the same room as the whale and within close proximity to use it. Furthermore, you are unable to control any of the whale's functions using the app. Only a few things are accomplished by the app- It allows you to change the order in which the stories in the whale's internal memory are played. You can also record yourself reading to your baby, singing, talking, and so on, and save them to the whale's internal memory. V-br>br>V-br>V-br>V-br>V-br>V As a WiFi-enabled device, it's being sold by tech. The term "enabled device" is extremely deceptive. PROS: br>br>

- a small sizebr>- The sound quality is good (but not great). (in comparison to Fisher Price Smart Connect, Skip Hop Owl, and Sleepy Me Smart Sleep Soother)br>- The ability to produce the loudest volume. This comes in handy when using the white noise feature. The competitors' low maximum volume levels make white noise virtually useless. br>- You can read or sing to your child while recording your voice.

The part where you plug in the cable to charge it has broken and is now useless
3/5

A pitty. This sound machine was purchased for my daughter's room and will be used on a regular basis. It has a large sound library, but what drew me in was the fact that it is rechargable, which means I won't have to replace the batteries every now and then; however, it broke after only two months of use, which is why I am giving it one star. The part where you plug in the cable to charge it has broken and is now useless. A pitty.

If the battery life was improved, it would be a five-star rating
4/5

Today was Myla's last day. She did a good job for the first six months or so. I noticed she couldn't hold a charge for as long after 7 months. After a while, I unplugged her. She was there 24 hours a day, seven days a week, until she crossed the rainbow bridge this morning. She is my baby's nanny for all naps and overnight. On the highest volume setting, she registers around 50 decibels near the crib. For night feeds, I use the soft nightlight feature. If V- If Tech could put a better battery in this machine, it would be a 5 star device, but I'm deducting a star because I'm out $20 more to replace her, and I had to rush to Wal-Mart. While we wait for Myla 2 to arrive, Mart will go out and get a quickie replacement.

Sleep well, my friend
5/5

My 5. My 5-year-old son no longer wanted his beloved Brica Firefly crib mirror, but he was having a hard time falling asleep. sleeping through the night My son adores his whale, and I thought this whale had the most options for the money. The sound quality is comparable to that of a Bose stereo system. Both the classical music selections and the stories have left a lasting impression on us. The stars aren't particularly bright, but they form a pleasing visual pattern that helps him unwind. I wish I could set the volume to a lower, more comfortable level. Overall, a great sleep aid for an older child who isn't ready for a radio but still needs a sound machine that isn't too babyish.

A USB connection that isn't working properly
3/5

This is the third time we've done it. The first two shattered in the same place - the connection for sub-charging I'm beginning to wonder if this was a deliberate design flaw, and I'm not sure how this product flaw went unnoticed in the reviews. When it works, it's great, but I didn't plan on buying three of these.
