“I don’t know how we lived without it! Buddy makes mundane tasks so fun and keeps my kids motivated.”

“I have 4 kiddos (age 4-15) and they all love having a Buddy in their room! This helps them a lot because many of their routines are things they do in their room as they get ready for the day or get ready for bedtime! Thanks team Skylight for creating Buddy!”

“I didn’t expect how much it helps me! If you want your kids to actually follow through on daily routines without turning into a broken record, this is worth every penny. It’s simple, effective, and somehow makes responsibility feel like a win instead of a battle.”

“My 5 and 3 year olds have been using their Buddies for several months and it’s been game changing during our morning hustle. They can’t read yet, so the emojis make it super easy for them to know what they need to do. And guessing which emoji will rain down after they finish their tasks has become a fun nightly ritual. Also love the visual timer — now my 5 YO follows along on his own and we don’t have to argue about it (amazing!)”

“Buddy has been a great addition for our son. He chose purple to fit his personality and loves checking off daily tasks right from his room. It’s fun, kid-focused, and helps him stay on track without constant reminders. The nightlight, white noise and alarm clock have helped him build more independence with his morning/evening routines. The button and fun sound effects make it feel more like a game. We love it!”

“Buddy has been a fantastic addition to our kids’ bedtime and daily routine. Chore completion has noticeably improved, and they actually enjoy checking their progress. It’s become one of those rare devices that’s both fun for the kids and genuinely helpful for parents. Highly recommend it for any family trying to build structure without the daily battles.”
