Good Night Soon

Acme Zoo Lights

Good Night Moon was your bedtime ace-in-the-hole.

Until Junior started complaining about being afraid of the dark.

Set the stage for deep sleep with the gentle glow of an Acme Zoo night-light.

Available in a range of soothing hues, these ecofriendly lamps cast a soft light guaranteed to bring on sweet slumber. Choose from the simple Angel Collection (all white), the brilliantly colored Crayon collection (in green, yellow, orange, or pink), or the playful Candy collection (backlit in green, yellow, orange, or pink).

Each series features whimsical cutouts — a bunny, a deer, a bear — illuminated by a fluorescent bulb that plugs easily into the wall.

So you can turn back time with just a flip of the switch.

Available at Babesta Cribz, 56 Warren Street, between West Broadway and Church Street, Tribeca (646-290-5508 or babesta.com); online at acmeworldzoo.com.
