Thanks to advancements
in modern technology, we’ve become a society that just loves to play with high
tech toys and gadgets. Today many of these gadgets can save either a husband or
wife a lot of time doing menial tasks around their home such as cleaning or
mopping a floor.
In today’s hectic
world, a woman’s schedule can get out of hand. Between the commitments of a
full time career, and sharing the responsibilities of running a household, a
mom’s life can get pretty hectic.
And this is why it’s
great to have a cool gadget or two around the house that not only make things
easier on the busy couple, but also saves time in when doing the usual
household chores.
For instance, in order
to clean the expensive hardwood flooring installed throughout the house, simply
turning on a small automatic vacuum cleaner to clean those expensive floors is
a cool way to save time and eliminate a chore no one really wants to do.
There are lots of cool
gadgets that are great moms on-the-go like the full line of I-Robot robotic
cleaning units including the Roomba dirt cleaner and its companion the Scooba
that washes floors.
Let’s take a look at a
few gadgets that a busy mom will not only think are cool, but will also help
her save time in innovative and fun ways.
The Smart Shopper
The Smart Shopper is a
very cool gadget for the busy person who doesn’t have time to make out a
grocery list. This gadget attaches to the refrigerator and just voice-records
items that you’ve used between meals.
And when it’s time to
take that trip to the grocery store, all you have to do is just hit print, and
you and your shopping list are ready to go. The Smart Shopper is web friendly
also. If you use a service such as Shop Rite from Home, just log in using Smart
Shopper and place your order, get it delivered, and never leave the house.
Amazon’s Kindle
This is a great gadget
for the busy mom on the go. Amazon’s Kindle is still the number one portable
handheld reading device worldwide, and with the new Kindle Fire, reading a book
or browsing the web has never been cooler.
There’s a Kindle for
any taste. From the Kindle Fire with its color touch screen to its cloud
storage and the availability of some of the most popular apps today including
Hulu Plus, Pandora and Netflix, to the Kindle DX with its 9.7 in display and
free 3G wireless capability.
The Clocky Alarm on Wheels
For the busy mom who
doesn’t have the time to get the kids out of bed because they keep hitting the
snooze on the alarm clock, there’s the Clocky alarm clock. The Clocky could be
the distant cousin to a certain Star Wars droid, with its persistent voice.
The Clocky alarm clock
has the usual settings you’d expect from an alarm clock, but the wow factor
comes from it actually jumping off a
night stand and rolling around on the floor sounding it’s alarm until it’s
turned off by someone, presumably the sleeper.
The Neat Organizer
Here’s a great gadget
for the work-at-home mom. Organizing a home office can be a daunting task
sometimes, especially if that office is cluttered with business cards and other
business documents lying all over that small space taking up valuable real
estate in the process.
The Neat Organizer is
offered in two different device styles. There is a Neat desk and a more portable
Neat digital scanner. There are versions for Mac and PC users and either OS
system will do the job of helping you quickly organize your important documents
and business cards into searchable files that you can easily find for quick
reference on your desktop or laptop, simply by typing in keywords to help find
the documents you’re searching for.
These are just a few
of the types of tech toys and gadgets that are designed to either entertain or
help a busy couple do things around the home that’s usually very time
consuming, and not a lot of fun to do into something that can be done quickly
and easily by a cool electronic device.
