Most clever nightlight of the decade: The LED Milk Glass.

I don’t know about you, but when I went to bed in my younger years, a glass of milk usually adorned the table next to me. Did it actually help me sleep as dear mother would always say? That’s debatable. Frankly, if I woke up in the middle of the night thirsty, the last thing I wanted to do was venture through the house for a drink. A quick slurp from some milk right beside me was perfect.

With that said, many young children have a pairing of things in their bedroom — milk and a nightlight. My nightlight was a Thomas the Train figurine. Classy stuff. Why not reduce clutter and combine the two?

The LED Milk Glass is clever. Very clever. The only downside is that you can’t actually drink the milk in this glass as doing so would devour your tongue with billions of angry electrons and a hospital visit that surely wouldn’t be anywhere near the top of your fun list.

Disasters aside, the LED Milk Glass is a small 3x AAA powered plastic light that bathes your room in soft and subtle white light for when mother nature clocks out. The coolest part however is how you turn it on/off. You can either be “normal” and use the on/off switch located on the underside of the light or you can simply turn it upside or knock it over — for a real glass of milk also “turns off” when such things happen.

Did more thought go into this light than needed to be? Probably. But there’s no denying it’s cool (as I’ve already ordered one). $11.50 and it’s yours. Available on Amazon.
