Bedtime Story Timer Light Kit with Arduino Uno – Soothing Sleep Signal for Children

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Imagine a soft, warm light that slowly fades over half an hour, gently signaling to your child that it’s time to sleep. With this kit, you’ll build exactly that — a programmable bedtime timer that transforms a simple button press into a calming 30-minute light show, using a real Arduino Uno microcontroller. It’s the perfect first project for parents and children to explore electronics together, combining storytelling and sleep routines with hands-on learning.

What You'll Build

You’ll assemble a circuit with five warm white LEDs that start glowing the moment a button is pressed. Over the next thirty minutes, the LEDs gradually dim to complete darkness, creating a non-intrusive sleep cue that feels as gentle as a story coming to an end. This is not a toy — it’s a functional piece of home automation you can proudly place in any child’s bedroom.

What You'll Learn

• How to program an Arduino Uno to count time and control multiple LEDs
• The basics of PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) for smooth LED fading
• Wiring a breadboard circuit with resistors, a tactile button, and multiple LED outputs
• How a single button press can trigger a precise 30-minute timer sequence
