Everyone's favorite solar powered lamp just got even better, with two new baby-friendly colors.  The Sun Jar is a small solar lamp inside a traditional frosted glass mason jar.  It combines new technology with old fashioned design and is a beautiful and practical nightlight for any nursery.  Once only available in a natural yellow color (hence the literal meaning of the Sun Jar),  the manufacturers have now introduce pretty pink and cool blue versions. 

It might sound old fashioned, but I still think it would be a cute idea to give a blue lamp for a boy and pink for a girl.

Nightlights are one of my favorite gifts for new moms as they are both thoughtful and unusual, practical yet pretty.  The Sun Jar is especially nice as it is sophisticated enough to look stylish anywhere in the home, but with a warm suffused light that babies are sure to find comforting.

Night lights have been proven to encourage a better night's sleep for both baby and parents, as well as reducing the risk of stubbed toes in the middle of the night!

Because the Sun Jar lamp is solar powered you don't have to find an available socket for it, or struggle with unsightly cables.  It can be placed absolutely anywhere in the nursery or home as long as it gets several hours of sunlight each day to charge. 

While the yellow version is supposed to emulate the warm glow of sunlight, the blue jar is meant to represent the cool light from the moon.  Um, I'm not sure where that leaves the pink version, but it sure is cute!
