To hear her tell it, my daughter's room is Grand Central Station for monsters. No matter how tuned-out they are from the whole TV/movie/fairytale scene, it seems no pre-schooler is immune from "too scared to sleep" syndrome.

This Rechargeable Pig Light is right on time because it's battery-free. Little hands power up the LED bulbs by cranking the button on the side. That way, the flashlight runs only as long as their imagination. Plus, who can even feign fright when armed with something so goofy?
