Love the concept and the stickers are fun

Love the concept and the stickers are fun. Wish it were a bit stronger of plastic. My little one bends it toward her instead of down to turn the light off at times and it buckles a bit. She can do the light for the bathroom now by herself which is a lifesaver with three younger kids in the house to attend to!

Pros
  • Makes it so easy to turn on lights and 3!! Great deal.
Cons
  • Great idea but they didn’t fit on our switches very well & wouldn’t turn the light completely on.

Great design and easy to install.

Great design and easy to install. Note: extensions are made for standard (thickness) light switch plates. If you have custom or designer plates that are usually thicker, the extensions may not work as intended, depending on how thick your plates are. I just bought some standard plates (each for under $2) to replace the thicker ones I was using. I still rated the extensions 5 stars.

Pros
  • Easy to install. Good size for toddler to reach.
Cons
  • Decals might not stay on the switch cover

Easy to install and ise

These are great. I was wary because of all the reviews complaining about how they needed to be taped down or whatever, but now that I have them, it’s clear those reviews are user error. There is a set of screws included with a plastic casing that essentially allows the switch to go up and down over the existing light plate. Take out the old screws, pop on the extender, put in the new screws with the plastic cap, and boom, you’re done.

Pros
  • These are great! The kids are able to turn on and off the lights on their own.
Cons
  • Extra decals might get lost easily

Marginal quality but overall a pretty good buy

I really love the idea of these things, my daughter can now go into the kitchen for a drink or to her room to play or get a toy all by herself with ease (which of course means less up and down and less running around the house for poor ole Dad!) Not to mention you get the added bonus of teaching your child not to waste electric and leave lights on all the time from a very young age which I like personally. After first installing them it took a couple times to explain that the lights are not…

Pros
  • Lowers frustration for parents and children during moments of darkness or power outages
Cons
  • Can limit accessibility for people with certain disabilities

kids lightswitch good for me

Everything about this product was easy to use, easy to install, and it paid for itself the very first time my son turned the light on in the bathroom by himself when going to the restroom. We are potty training our three yr old son and were having to stop and drop what we were doing to turn the light on in the restroom. Purchasing this product allowed him to feel very independent doing everything by himself. We placed one in his room and in the hallway as well. This alerts me when he wakes up…

Pros
  • Gender-neutral designs appeal to both boys and girls
Cons
  • Might make it difficult to use outlet switches near the light switch

Why didn’t I get this sooner?!?

So easy to install. Glows in the dark and long enough for my 2 year old to reach without having to stand on anything. PERFECT!

Pros
  • Prevents accidental bumps and bruises caused by reaching for light switches too high up
Cons
  • Might limit children's creativity in making their own light switch art

These are fantastic

These are fantastic. Makes my little one more independent because he can turn on the light in his room and the bathroom by himself. Love that they are glow in the dark and the stickers are so cute. Highly recommend.

Pros
  • KidSwitch helps your child safely reach and operate room lights, is simple to install and fun and easy to use!
Cons
  • Might not work with smart home systems like Alexa or Google Home

Great tool for toddlers

Works great on standard switches.Stickers add bit more fun to installation process as you kid can participate.One very important step to a bit more of independence and freedom.I wish they'd have more in a pack; bit pricey for just 3 thin pieces plastic.

Pros
  • Easy to install and easy for kids to use - it sure beats getting up to turn the light off and on!
Cons
  • Can’t be used with other types of switches, like pull chains or remote-control switches

Doesn't quite fit on my review.

The product is nice in general but if you try to put both top & bottom screw in, it won't allow the light switch to go up (turn on). It looks as if the holes are not spread apart far enough. We still use it, just only have the top screw installed. The sticker pictures are beautiful and my girls really like them.

Pros
  • Serves as an introduction to technology in a safe and age-appropriate manner
Cons
  • Can't be used with ceiling light switches

This is a great invention.

My granddaughter 3 1/2 is so excited that she can turn the lights on by herself. This is a great invention. ! However the switch has to go up and down not sideways. But the most necessary one definitely worked

Pros
  • Provides a sense of comfort and security for children who are afraid of the dark
Cons
  • Decals might not hold up well under hot or humid conditions

Perfect solution for my grandkids

Perfect solution for my grandkids! When i realized they were dragging random boxes and stools around in order to reach light switches, I knew we needed a safer option. These extenders do the trick!

Pros
  • Multi-language decals accommodate diverse language backgrounds
Cons
  • Might not work with certain room layouts or furniture placements

Perfect for your little ones

If you have an toddlers who are independent this is a must have. Allows them to turn the lights on and off independently. Easy to install and perfect size

Pros
  • Helps foster a sense of responsibility in children
Cons
  • Might not stick to all surfaces, like glass or metal

It lasted a little over 2 years.

I liked it but it lasted a little over 2 years. You can say it served its duty, 2 years is sufficient but I have 2 more little ones. One of them now need that and other one will need it within 2 years. So I am not sure if I want to purchase it again and again. I prefer more durable item.

Pros
  • Saves time and energy for parents by making it easier for toddlers to switch lights on and off
Cons
  • Might not appeal to all children's interests

While the pictures are a little dorky, my three year old thinks they're cool, and now he can turn the lights on and off by himself, so yay!

Pros
  • Reduces parental stress by removing the need for constant supervision
Cons
  • Might not be suitable for children with certain disabilities

Fantastic product! in my review

My 3 year old is very independent. He was getting frustrated that he couldn't turn on and off the light in the bathroom himself. These are wonderful. Attached very easily with two included screws into the existing screw holes in your switch plate. You can personalize with the included stickers and it glows in the dark!

Pros
  • Easy to install and my 3 yr old loves that he can turn the lights on now with out help
Cons
  • Requires some assembly, might be difficult for some parents to install

LIGHTS! ACTION! in my review

Kids Switch came exactly as advertised with three extension and 12 colorful stickers to satisfy every situation! This is perfect for allowing my grandson a little independence. I read the installation instructions but I was making it a lot harder than it was. That’s why I came back with a photo. Hopefully this helps. It works perfectly and solved my problem. I plan on getting a set for each of my grandchildren’s homes.

Pros
  • Can be used as a visual cue system for children with learning disabilities
Cons
  • Might make the light switch too complicated for guests to use

Easy to install best in my review

Love the independence this gave our little one that was potty training. They were able to be independent much faster and loved going potty and washing hands all by themselves. They are super easy to install an the kids get buy in by picking out their own stickers. The glow in the dark is an added bonus that was perfect for switching to the toddler bed at night.

Pros
  • Encourages fine motor skills development
Cons
  • Might limit creative play for some children

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good value. Gives kids independence.

Exactly what we were looking for. Allows the kids more independence when moving throughout the house, especially helpful when kids are potty trained but are still too short to reach the light switch. Good value. Stickers are decent quality. both my daughter and son found designs in the pack that they liked. Easy to install.

Pros
  • Use the blank decals to create your own unique design or tie into an existing room theme by simply cutting and sticking your own wall paper border, superhero, or other favorite image in the circle inlay
Cons
  • Might make it difficult to turn the light on and off quickly in case of emergency

3 year old that is/was scared of the dark can now easily turn the light on and off. He liked being able to pick the sticker. Easy to install. Have one in his room and the bathroom. Adults can use this extension or still use the remaining of the light switch that sticks out.

Pros
  • For more child safety, check out our KidSwitch Door Knob Safety Covers!
Cons
  • Might be too complicated for some parents to figure out

Highly recommended light switch extenders

Excellent light switch extenders. I have a three-year-old, and she very much enjoyed picking out the stickers for her extenders. Mom liked how easy the extenders were to install, that they work perfectly, and that they glow in the dark. I’ll be keeping these up for quite a few more years for my newborn son to use.

Pros
  • Includes themed art decals featuring Laurie Berkner for added fun
Cons
  • Might not be compatible with certain electrical systems
