Spoonful of Sugar
Dispensing medicine to infants and toddlers is never easy, those little
suckers turn their heads and you end up putting the stuff right in their
ear or they just spit it out all over the place. So how about using their
own natural instincts to help them out. All babies, well, most babies,
like to suckle on a binky, and Medicine Dispenser by Kidz-Med has a
chamber for the medicine. It has a plunger to help deliver the medicine
to the back of the baby's tongue or you can just let them use their natural
sucking action to deliver the goods. The Medicine Dispenser by Kidz-Med
delivers the medicine in a simple and easy way so that your baby may not
even know they are taking it.
$10 - Medicine Dispenser
What's Hot Doc?
don't like holding still for eating so why would they hold still for
an in the ear ther
about an infrared ther
navel, or arm pit. No need for a probe covers or disturbing your baby's
sleep. Your baby will never even know you took their temperature. Check
out the '''Thermofocus''' also by Kid-Med.
Look! I'm on TV
or a child in the third row of the SUV, but you can't see how they
are doing, and that dual mirror trick just don't cut it. So what's
a good techie
Infant of course. Day or night, this 2.5" dash-mounted color screen
will let you keep an eye on the baby and the other one on the road.
The camera mounts to a variety of head rests. Both units will plug
into the car power outlet.
Don't Touch That!
the car seat buckle or the toddler is getting to smart for his own
britches and unbuckling himself! Well, someone figured out how to stop
those pesky kids with the Safeclip. This device prevents accidental
release but allows quick access to the buckle in case of emergency.
It attaches in mere seconds and is easily removable.
What A Change
wall mounted baby changing stations that would look great in your
baby's room. These changing stations are terrifically space saving
and can be converted into a child's fold down desk later such as the
OWO. You'll have to get them from
here in the
OWO €274,-- (about $356) - OWO
Ski Baby Ski
this could be. Skis for your baby stroller! Now that's cool!
BabyfactoryUSA.com has these skis that will fit just about any single
or dual wheeled stroller with wheels up to 12" in diameter. The skis
are wide and have a grove to keep them tracking easily and even come
with a carrying and storage bag. Of course we don't need these here
in Elk Grove as it was a balmy 63 degrees F and not a cloud in sight.
Oh well.
iWhat???
to get to me, but hey this is cool... If you don't mind giving your kid
control of your iPod. ifrogz has come out with a silicone case just for
kids and the iPod called Tadpole. Cute ain't it. Anyway, this is not
your ordinary silicone case.. Its an ifrogz case and has a variety of
colors and an optional screen and click wheel protector of which you
can customize. I have our Show #25 ifrogz case winner's review later
in the show so stay tuned.
iCaramba... Not another i-Thingy
it is, the iCrib Sound System by Munchkin. This device hangs on the side
of the crib and pumps in the tunes to the crib from any MP3 player. It
will auto shut off after 15, 30, or 60 minutes. It also has a color
changing night light , but don't forget to buy batteries too as this
does not come with an AC adapter. No you won't be finding the lullaby
playlist on my iPod, but still looks cool. The web site has a store
locator by using your ZIP code. Apparently I can get one at Target.
Getting Serious for a Moment
children are reported missing everyday, what are you going to
do if this happens to you? It could take about an hour or two
to get all the viatl information you will need to provide the
authorities about your missing child. I found this, the
AMBER stick™. It is a usb stick that has all the vital
information that is necessary to generate Missing
Persons Flyers and import into law enforcement's
computers. Everyting is encrypted and password
protected for privacy. All the software for the access
of the information is right on the stick and works
with Windows ME and higher. Update as often as
you want and even upload to a central server
database where the information can be available
to be distributed to law enforcement all over the
authorized access.
