### Canopy: Light and Sound Regulation

The enclosed canopy serves as the foundation for creating a calming "sensory retreat":

*   Light Control: The dual-fabric doors are made of heavy-duty mesh and durable fabric, allowing caregivers to customize light levels for a sleep-conducive environment.
*   Sound Muffling: The canopy and heavy-duty mesh work together to limit outside noise that could disturb the child.
*   Safe Padding: The canopy features tensioned, padded walls to prevent injury and provide a secure feeling of "cocooning".
