Summary

  • Skylight unveiled Skylight Buddy, a bedside device for children ages 4 to 10 that guides morning, afternoon and evening routines with visual tasks, reminders and timers.
  • The product is pitched as an independence-building coach that helps kids track chores and daily agendas without relying on a parent-facing screen.
  • Privacy is central to the launch: Skylight Buddy has no social media, apps, microphones or cameras, and it can work either alone or with the company's Skylight Calendar.
  • The release extends Skylight's broader push to build a family operating system through focused, single-purpose devices aimed at different household members.
