Wake Them Up With Touch Instead Of Sound

You already know the alarm doesn't work. A louder one won't either. Your kid isn't lazy. Their brain stops hearing a sound that goes off every morning.

Dawn Band wakes them with a vibration on the wrist. It starts strong and keeps getting stronger until they get up. It's 3X stronger than a smartwatch buzz. Touch gets through to the ADHD brain in the morning, and sound doesn't.

Thousands Of Freshmen Are Making Their 8 A.M. Classes When Every Alarm Failed

"i try every kind of alarm but nothing works more than a couple days, even those that require you to do math problems."

Sound familiar? A student wrote that on a forum. That was Jordan, word for word. He had six alarms on his phone. He still missed fourteen classes in three weeks.

The first week, the brain hears the alarm. By week three, it's just noise, like a fan that runs all night. ADHD brains sleep deeper, so it fades even faster.

Dawn Band doesn't make a sound. It's a buzz on the skin that keeps getting stronger. The brain can't learn to ignore that. Over 10,000 parents have put one on their kid's wrist.

The Disability Center Director Sees This Every Fall (No App, No Phone)

Dr. Nadia Brooks runs the disability resource center at my college. She told me what she sees every fall. Deep sleepers wake to touch when sound does nothing. A hand on the shoulder works when ten alarms don't.

The problem is that someone has to be there. Roommates shake them awake until they get tired of it. Usually by October. Dawn Band gives them that touch every morning with nobody there. You set three alarms on the band itself. There's no app to download and no phone in bed.

It Works With Nobody There. No Roommate, No Mom, No 8:15 Phone Call.

Stop calling at 8:15 and listening to it ring. Stop asking the roommate to bang on the door. Jordan is three hours from home. The band wakes him anyway.

It's silent to everyone else, so his roommate sleeps right through it. The strap is so soft he forgets it's on. One charge lasts about two weeks. It looks like a plain black band. Nobody in the dorm knows what it's for.

See It Work In Days, Not A Semester. Here's What Happened With Jordan.

Planners and louder alarms can take a whole semester to fail. Dawn Band starts working the first morning they wear it.

Week 1: He made his 8 a.m. on Monday. Then Tuesday. Then Wednesday. I'd call at 8:15 and he'd pick up, already walking to class.

Week 2: The knot in my stomach at 8:15 started to ease. I stopped checking my phone in my 9 a.m. meetings.

Week 3-4: He stayed on our Sunday call for an hour. Then he called me at 7:40 one morning just to say hi.

Week 6: His advisor emailed me. "Jordan hasn't missed a class in five weeks."

You'll know fast if it's working. And if it's not? You get 60 nights to try it. If it doesn't wake them, you get your money back.

"He hasn't missed one morning. I don't call him at 8:15 anymore."

My son sleeps through multiple alarms. I was tired of calling him every morning from two states away. We can't always be there to wake him up. Since he started wearing his Dawn Band, he hasn't missed one morning. You may have just saved us for the rest of the semester!

Girls have ADHD too! I wasn't sure Maddie would wear it at college. I was hoping it would work better than the six alarms on her phone. So far it has been a game changer. Mornings are so much more peaceful, for her and for me.
