## Claims

### Claim 1

A sleep enhancement device for toddlers and young children, consisting of:
a containment assembly, wherein the containment assembly consists of:
a front wall having an inner surface and an outer surface, wherein the front wall includes an aperture,
a back wall having an inner surface and an outer surface,
a left sidewall having an inner surface and an outer surface,
a right sidewall having an inner surface and an outer surface,
a top wall having an inner surface and an outer surface,
a bottom wall having an inner surface and an outer surface, and
wherein the front wall, the back wall, the left sidewall, the right sidewall, the top wall, and the bottom wall are in a spaced-apart relationship to define an internal chamber therebetween; and
an electronics assembly, wherein the electronics assembly consists of an energy source, a light source, a primary user interface, a circuit board, and a speaker,
wherein the energy source is contained within the internal chamber of the containment assembly, and wherein the energy source is in electrical communication with the circuit board and the light source,
wherein the circuit board is contained within the internal chamber of the containment assembly, and wherein the circuit board is in electrical communication with the energy source, the light source, the primary user interface, and the speaker,
wherein the primary user interface is positioned on the outer surface of the front wall, and wherein the primary user interface is in electrical communication with the circuit board,
wherein the light source is contained within the internal chamber of the containment assembly, and wherein the light source is in electrical communication with the energy source and the circuit board, and
wherein the speaker is contained within the internal chamber of the containment assembly, and wherein the speaker is in electrical communication with the circuit board.
