Mini Tech Heads
FirstĀ of all a big apology for the silence on the blog front lately! As anyone with small babies/kids knows, that personal time on the laptop is a bit of a luxury, but I will endeavour to be more regular (and while I did buy some oatbran the other day I am talking about my posting frequency). Also if any readers haven’t yet made their way over to the Chic Mums Forum… jump on board and have a chat with us!
So speaking of trying to grab time on my laptop with baby in tow (I run an online clothing store, and Chic Mums is actually just a hobby)… I don’t know how many of you will relate to trying to surf the net or answer emails with baby on your lap? It all started when I tried a bit of Texas Hold Em while breastfeeding in the early days. These days my curious little bundle will try and move my mouse, press the keys and all round try and be involved with the activity she sees her parents doing (more hours than they’d like).
Then I came across the coolest (but pricey) toy for your mini tech head… The OUiP! kids think/thing.

It is a handheld device (that bears a resemblence to an iPod by design) that is powered by motion and doesn’t require batteries. It then changes pictures and sounds (some pre-loaded or you can load your own) to entertain and educate your junior. Unfortunately is is yet to be released, and will most likely set you back some coin when it does, but this toy will surely get your gadget lust firing!
