What are signs of overtiredness?
Spot overtiredness early
Look for early cues and start settling sooner to prevent a second wind.
Starting the routine earlier stopped the overtired meltdowns.
Common overtired cues include racing eyes, jiggly limbs, jerky movements, rubbing eyes, and escalating crying. If you spot these signals 10–15 minutes before the usual nap, begin your calming routine sooner so baby doesn’t get a “second wind.”
Try tonight
- Watch for early signs about 10–15 minutes before the usual nap.
- Use Raffy’s cue to start settling earlier.
- Shorten the wake window if needed.

Raffy-Lu and Raffington ★★★★★
We bought my son a Fawn Riff Raff when he was around 4 months… His educators would turn the lullaby on for him when he was sad to help calm him and used the white noise to assist with sleep. At home each night he slept with Raffy-lu… Now at 18 months… he collects them for nap time and bedtime. We absolutely love Riff Raff… so worth the hype.

No more bedtime Riff Raff ★★★★★
Purchased our first Raffy when my daughter was 4 months old… Fast forward 3 years and my daughter can still not resist the sound of Raffy’s lullaby. It still calms her instantly and minimises the nighttime riff raff that overtired toddlers experience. We wouldn’t be without our Raffy—100% sleep saver.

BUY THIS!! ★★★★★
I bought one for my son… He loves it and will not take a nap/sleep at night without it! On car rides, as soon as I turn on the sound he calms down instantly… This is pretty much the only thing I have found that really helps.
