Scarlet the sheep is a soft toy with a built-in projector, intended from the first month. Besides a multicoloured star projection it plays melodies, white noise and nature sounds such as birdsong, a heartbeat, rain and sea waves. White noise masks ambient sound, which often makes the difference in a busy household.

The gentle glow also makes it usable as a bedside light. Once the internal mechanism is removed the plush can be machine washed. The muted, natural colours suit almost any nursery, so the item works broadly as a gift on the shop floor. Supplied per piece.
