Taking its cue from a time-machine inspired show, the Tardis Blankets are plainly meant for adding some warmth for people to sleep better assuming cold weather is upon them. Easily associated with the popular TV show Dr. Who, this is perhaps the closes thing you can get on being able to travel through time.

Then again, it could fictionally become possible to have someone you wish to be by your side when you want to sleep better although this may be limited as “all in the mind”. Chicks are bound to love an old Police box of sorts as a blanket so you may want to consider that as well.

So if you buy this, chances are that the girls will flock to your bed, each hoping to get into your Tardis and have some adventures.

Monsters, fictional and untrue as they may, are the bane of some kids. Blame it on stories and some TV shows, but monsters can hinder a child’s sleeping endeavors. And while parents try as they might to calm down the young tykes, perhaps this iPhone app can help them out.

The app is called the LLC Monster Meter which comes with four different monster detection technologies that can get your kids feel better. In short, the app was made for kids and help them overcome their fear of monsters lurking around their room or even under the bed.

A bit discrete but if it helps parents get their kids to sleep then why not? The LLC Monster Meter app for the iPhone or the iPod Touch is available at the iTunes App Store for $0.99.

Talking in your sleep is something rare and normally, one would not be able to find out what it is he is actually blurting out. But leave it to your wife to think up of something wacky, putting up a blog and recording what her husband says when he is asleep. The result? An online hit!

Karen Slavick started her blog last February after being bugged by her husband’s repeated sleep talking ordeal. She records what her husband says in his sleep and ultimately that same site is now famous for doing so.

The site has become so popular the couple, who live in Brooklyn, New York, now sell T-shirts with quotes as slogans. There is an idea for you eh?

Here is a wacky solution for people who don’t want to get caught dozing off (especially when they are at school). Many of you may have seen this before in some movies or TV sitcoms. Now you get the chance to use it for real. The Sleep Safe Tape is a roll of standard ½” wide transparent tape that has pictures of printed eyes printed along the length of the tape. Though it may be risky, if you can get away with it at meetings or class then good luck. Just make sure that when you do doze off, you wake up once the meeting is adjourned or the class is finished!

And would you believe he even wrote a Linux program to make it work? The program opens and closes the usual CD drive which is tied to a baby car seat. With the repetitive motion, it rocks a baby to sleep without much effort on the part of the dad or maybe even moms.

For the people who have trouble waking up to the right alarm clock, perhaps the problem is in the device and methods of waking you up. But if this device were to become a reality, you can bet you have more than one way to wake you up!

It’s called the Perfect Wakeup Machine, something that may have been taken out of the pages of Dr. Emmet Brown of “Back to the Future”. Anyway, the concept is good but it seems to be a bit bulky and may need some sophisticated directions to operate. Unless you want to live like a scientific geek, chances are you may be looking for a more compact type of a gadget with all these perks.

Here is something that may help you in assessing your sleep pattern and be a security gadget in your home as well. Sony comes out with a keen new device in this Sony Dream Machine Spy Camera. It can double as a clock since it does look like one deceivingly. But rest assured, there is a hidden camera somewhere in there.

It certainly looks like any ordinary clock which you can place by your table side any time of the day. But it can record videos and capture some photos on designated days you program it for. The video camera practically has a mind of its own as it can shift to night vision automatically one night time falls.

The Sony Dream Machine Spy Camera retails for $599.95 at the SkyMall.

If standard alarm clocks fail to get you up, then this Bomb Bank Alarm Clock surely will! With the Bomb Bank Alarm Clock, things need not be the same again as you learn to get up and save money with that extra bit of zest. Not only does it function as an alarm clock, it also doubles up as a coin saver as well.

There are 3 game modes to choose from – where the possibility of an explosion happening is set to one fourth, one eighth and one fifteenth probability when the alarm goes off. Should that happen, it will be one very messy morning – as all your coins stored inside will be scattered all over the place.

$27 is the asking price for this alarm clock that could result in you getting more housework done before the day has even started properly.

Some people may need lighting but this is one design that may keep them awake. Although we all know it is fictitious, but this skull type of a lamp is something that perhaps the extreme sleepers would consider having in their room.

The lamp’s name is Frankie, and it’s shaped like a skull with some sort of horrifying modification over where the mouth should be. The eyes are interchangeable LED or halogen bulbs, allowing you to choose just how intense the stare from this thing is gonna be. The whole thing weighs 11 pounds, and is probably expensive due to the fact that you need to contact the artist for pricing.

Here is another clock that is certainly going to be a great one for people who want some life in their rooms. Though it seems unlikely that you can be able to sleep due to laughter, it is a great addition to any room.

It is unfortunate that the googly eyes clock is only a concept because I believe this would sell like hotcakes. The left eyeball displays the hour while the right displays the minutes.

Sure, it is hard to read—but so are most of the clocks and watches coming out these days. Apparently, people like their time-telling challenging these days.

Now here is something that campers and outdoor people are bound to love. When you go camping, the one thing that worries most campers in the wild are the presence of bears. The Sleeping Bear Pack is a sleeping bag that looks like a real bear. And why would a bear attack another bear? It just doesn’t make sense.

Sure, it might try to seduce another bear, but if you remain still it should, like all intelligent mammals, take the hint. Plus, you’ll get over your fear of bears by sleeping inside of a harmless approximation of one, right? So go ahead, get camping.

For Mike Birbligia, sharing events in his sleepwalking experience which are obviously factual for some, may be a good way to get people up and about on why sleepwalking could be fatal in some instances. Some would call this show, a hilarious 80-minute off-Broadway monologue that weaves his sleepwalking yarns into more profound narratives about his fears of intimacy and adulthood, Sleepwalk With Me, as a attention-seeking plot. However, if you pay attention more closely, they do and can happen.

Among Birbiglia’s biggest fans: a handful of sleep researchers who have praised him for drawing attention to a condition they say is more common, and potentially more dangerous, than most people care to acknowledge.

Normally, as the brain enters REM sleep, or dream sleep, the body’s muscles become paralyzed, except for the diaphragm, which is essential to breathing. That prevents us from acting on our thoughts, essentially protecting us from our own minds while we dream. But in people with RMBD, the muscles never enter dream paralysis and the body remains fully capable of action—an easy recipe for injury or death, given that sleeping people usually feel no pain.

For people who love to add some humor into their bedroom, these Pop Pillows are bound to be a great bed enhancer. They are not noisy as the name connotes. Rather, they are designs simply made to mislead people who may see you into thinking you don’t hear a thing.

These Pop Pillows are perhaps the thing you may need to sleep right. Priced at £14.99 each, just put them in their slots and experience comfortable support from their materials which are made of 100% cotton and comes with 2 cheeky reversible pillow cases. Not a bad buy!

This particular style may prove especially humourous when attempting to sleep in a less than peaceful environment. One pillow is adorned with a chunky set of headphones (‘ear defenders’ we believe they’re called), the other with a pair of hands that will appear to be inserted firmly in one’s ears. So you will appear to be dozing in a noiseless calm.

The key for healthy care for your babies is to make sure that they have a healthy sleeping environment. Babies sleep a lot during their stage and as a parent, the best way to nurture and make sure that they get the best respite, surroundings and the proper way to aid them in their sleep is a must.

Parents would normally feel that they know everything about the well-being of their child. But then again, listening and seeing what programs or events may have to offer would not hurt.

“As things have progressed in health care, as we go back and look now, the commonalities we found is that blankets pose a risk of suffocation,” Kerrigan said. The sleep sacks have openings at the neck and arms and keep a baby warm without a chance of loose blankets covering the baby’s face. A toddler version with openings allows walking.

For sure, this is something that most people would want to have, especially if you are not the type who gets a lot of shuteye. When we talk about sleep, it normally pertains to laying down on our favorite bed, comfortable and of course finding the position suitable to get that much needed rest leading to sleep.

But for people who want to steal some sleep regardless of position, here is a polyphasic sleep, a practice of sleeping multiple times in a 24-hour period, with the help of this Vertical Bed in a suitcase.

Nutty as it may look but if you can steal some minutes deceiving other people then why not? Just make sure you find a suitable place though.

The artist who created this concept will tell you that it’s some artsy-fartsy way to make a statement and get yourself some polyphasic sleep, which is the practice of sleeping multiple times in a 24-hour period, but really it’s just an excuse to be lazy whenever and wherever you want. So lazy that you don’t even lay down. In fact, it’s a new epidemic of laziness sweeping the globe. This guy basically walks around with his Vertical Bed in a suitcase, finds himself a nice spot, anchors his bed above subway vents and sleeps for about 40 minutes a pop.

We all know that dreams and wishes come true. But to wish for something like sleeping with them is wishful thinking. It is really more of a sexual fantasy that we all find and chances are we may come to a point of simply laughing about it. It is simply something that may be close to impossible.

(Source) Consequently, I believe that the entertainers we dream of being with define our sexual ideals (and peccadilloes). It says everything about who we really are and what we (at least think) we really want. This is why so many people in relationships have made pacts about what celebrities, if given a chance, they’re allowed to get a free pass to sleep with. In the end, they’re our defining fantasies, and we want to cling to the idea that they, like our dreams for happiness, could one day come true.
