Kidswitch Helps Toddlers Become More Independent
The Kidswitch is a product I wish I had known about when my son was a toddler. This innovative gadget attaches to your light switch and provides an extension that your child can use to turn the lights on and off by himself. So, this makes nighttime trips to the bathroom much easier and promotes independence during the day.
The Kidswitch isn’t the most attractive looking addition to your home decor, but I think most parents with toddlers are willing to sacrifice style for convenience. It attaches with a screwdriver over top of your existing light switch, so it isn’t going to leave a permanent mark when you decide to remove it.
As you can see from the picture accompanying this post, the Kidswitch should work even if your light switch is located near wood moulding.
The Kidswitch is supposed to glow in the dark to make it easier for kids to see where the light switch is at night. Some reviewers say they don’t think it glows very brightly, but I’ve always found glow in the dark products to be a bit of a disappointment. But, even if the switch doesn’t glow quite as well as advertised, I still think the product is an ingenious idea.
You can purchase the Kidswitch light switch extender on Amazon for $15.06. The device is sold in a package of three, so you can easily put one in the most frequently used rooms of the house.
What do you think of the Kidswitch? If you’re the parent of a toddler, do you think this would make your daily routine a bit easier?
