Many children love to travel by car: gentle rocking, changing images  outside the window and the sound of the engine soothe them and make it  easier to fall asleep. Sometimes, however, the sound of the engine and  other sounds are too loud and, instead of making it easier, interfere  with sleep and irritate children. When traveling by electric car, we  drive in almost complete silence - in the cabin we can only hear a  slight hum, somewhat reminiscent of the distant sound of wind or sea  waves. In such conditions, children fall asleep instantly! My friend  Greg, owner of the second-generation electric Nissan Leaf, found out  about it. His two-year-old son Mike loves traveling with his dad and  falls asleep instantly. Greg was kind enough to let me record the sound  in Leaf's cabin at around 80-100 mph. Try it, it really works!

This is a one-hour episode but you can also watch the original 11-hour version of Electric Car Lullaby on YouTube.

Why is the Electric Car White Noise calming?  Scientists have proven that this sound can guide neuronal waves in our  brains, creating a calming effect that may help you effectively if you  want to fall asleep, relax, study, focus, meditate or calm a crying  baby.

What is the most relaxing sound?  According to the latest research, the most soothing sounds are all the  noises, like white, blue and pink - the sounds made by various household  electrical appliances, such as fans, vacuums, dryers or blenders. All  they are known for calming effects, as they masks high and low-frequency  noise pollution. They are all considered to be one of the most  effective methods for relaxing, calming down and falling asleep, for  babies and adults alike.

Enjoy!
