3.     MOVband by MOVABLE

Childhood obesity is at an all-time high affecting 1 in 3 teens in the U.S. With many PE classes being cut due to budgetary constraints and not every child being a gifted athlete or into playing sports, how do you motivate kids to exercise?

The new MOVband is a simple, fun and affordable activity monitor in the form of multi-colored wrist bands.  It measures all movement throughout the day from walking and running, to exercising and playing sports and converts that movement into mileage. Families and schools can participate and create a fun competition with the MOVchallenge , a group activity program that not only motivates participants to be active, but rewards them based on their progress.

Cost: $29.99.  Additional colored bands: $4.99.  Website: www.movable.com

4.     P1 Life by Protection 1

A burglary occurs every 15 seconds in America.  A residential fire starts every 82 seconds. Protection 1, the largest full-service provider of business and home security in the U.S., has a new service called P1 Life that gives homeowners peace of mind when away from their residence by allowing them to control every aspect of their security system, including household functions, through their smart phone, tablet or personal computer.

It also offers multiple energy-saving benefits as well.

Key Features of P1 Life include:

  • First touchscreen system to offer Wi-Fi and 4G network cellular communications

  • Receive alarm and non-alarm updates such as a child’s arrival home after school
  • Watch live video of what’s happening in the home

·         Control lights, locks, appliances and thermostats

5.     Commute by BlueAnt Wireless

For anyone who spends a lot of time in their car – either for work or carting the kids around to school, sports and activities – the temptation to use a phone while driving can be great, but also very dangerous, especially when kids are in the car.

Who wouldn’t love to have a car

with voice recognition connected to their cell phone?  But many of us don’t have it and can’t afford to have it installed.

Introducing the Commute from Blue Ant Wireless, a voice activated hands-free car kit.  It’s the only Bluetooth device on the market that allows users to send, read and reply to messages totally hands-free.  The Commute allows drivers to make and receive calls through Siri and Google Voice.  Drivers can dial a contact from their phonebook or answer a call on the road simply by saying, “launch voice control,” and incoming caller names are conveniently announced, eliminating the need to check caller ID.   

MSRP: $99.  Website: www.myblueant.com
