The winner of room-darkening curtains is ...

Posted: Sunday, Apr. 03, 2011

Congrats to Ninanina, who won the curtains. LightCatcher is introducing a great line of curtains that can actually make moms' lives easier by helping kids sleep longer. They work amazingly well for babies, but they also work wonders for big kids and grown ups too!

As any new mom knows, sleep is invaluable, especially when you aren’t getting any. According to the National Sleep Foundation, infants need at least 14-15 hours of sleep to function at their best. Newborns need even more. The trouble is that things like noise, temperature and light can make it pretty tricky to keep your little guy or gal slumbering peacefully. And (as a mom of a 2-year-old) I can definitely tell you that when your little one doesn’t sleep, nobody sleeps.

So what can a frazzled mama do? LightCatcher has just launched a new line of room darkening curtains that help create the perfect sleeping environment for your child. LightCatcher’s fabric helps shield out light, noise and drafts, keeping the room cool, dark and quiet. The curtains come in a variety of terrific colors and prints, so moms and nesting moms-to-be can easily create a nursery that matches their style and personality.

They are available for purchase at Bed Bath & Beyond online and in stores.
