Great toy, very adjustable
Really, really like this cuddly toy. Firstly, it's cute and well-designed. I like that they didn't overdo it with the hippo, it's sweet and a little bit traditional rather than cartoony and too bright. When I was a kid, one of my favourite toys was a gloworm. I wouldn't go to bed without it, this kind of reminds me of that. While I still think it's a bit weird that kids can sleep with hard plastic in the bed, they really do like stuff that lights up.
This toy plays a couple of songs and a river sound or a heartbeat sound (you could even use that one for a new puppy who needs the sound of momma), but what's really clever is the level of customisation. They have a 'Try me' setting that cuts off quickly and three other time lengths for cut off that way you don't waste the batteries (included as well). By far my fave thing though, is the volume control. You can crank it up to high for daytime use or kids with hearing issues or turn it quiet at night so it doesn't wake up the neighbourhood. More toys need to have adjustable volume.
