BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

(1) Field of the Invention

The disclosure relates to night light devices and more particularly pertains to a new night light device for soothing a child to sleep. The device includes a star shaped housing, a cassette reader integrated into the housing and a light emitter integrated into the housing. The device includes a cassette that stores a message recorded by a parent and which is insertable into the cassette reader to read the message.

(2) Description of Related Art Including Information Disclosed Under 37 CFR 1.97 and 1.98

The prior art relates to night light devices including a variety of night light devices that include a motion sensor for sensing motion of a child and an audio unit for emitting an audible message to the child. The prior art discloses a sleep enhancement device that is structured to resemble an elephant and which includes an imagery projector for projecting imagery and an optical disk reader for reading a story on an optical disk. In no instance does the prior art disclose a star shaped housing with a cassette reader and a cassette with a pre-recorded audio message.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

An embodiment of the disclosure meets the needs presented above by generally comprising a housing that is structured to resemble a star to visually comfort a child. A light emitter is positioned within the housing to emit light outwardly through the housing thereby facilitating a child to be soothed by the light at night. A cassette reader is integrated into the housing and a cassette is provided that stores data comprising a pre-recorded audio message. The cassette is insertable into the cassette reader thereby facilitating the cassette reader to read the data on the cassette. A speaker is integrated into the housing to audibly emit the pre-recorded message outwardly through the sound slots.

There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the disclosure in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the disclosure that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.

The objects of the disclosure, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the disclosure, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure.
