Ewan the dream sheep is a soft, cuddly sleep aid like no other…

Baby & Toddler

Add a comment By Janet

Ewan the dream sheep could help restless babies settle quickly and sleep soundly!

Ewan replicates the soothing sounds of a pregnant mum's womb and heartbeat. The sounds have been combined with household, musical and natural sounds at low bass frequencies of 125hz to produce ‘pink noise.’ This is the type of noise that babies predominantly hear when in the womb, which is why he is so effective.

Ewan also emits a soothing pink glow – research has shown that babies are comforted by certain aspects of the womb, so a pink ambient glow is the natural choice for Ewan's tummy.

Winner of countless Baby Product & Gift Awards in the UK, Ewan is now available in Mighty Ape baby
