Not only am I a fan of technology, but so are my daughters. They will want to grab my iPhone and download a princess or “Word Girl” app. Since they are five and two years old I need to make sure my tech gadgets like my iPhone and iPad are protected at all times. I thought about wrapping them in bubble wrap but I would not be able to use them properly. The next best thing is to find phone case that will not only withstand my daily use, but my little velociraptors. Here are some great items that you might find useful just like me to protect your tech toys.
CM4: Q Card Case
The CM4 Q Card Case works for the iPhone 4 and 4s. The Q Card Case allows you to fit up to three cards plus cash on one side of the case. I put my ID and my debit card which is great since I don’t need to carry a wallet anymore. The case is light, but constructed with a touch rubber material in case you or your kids drop the phone. The case also allows for easy access to your volume buttons, power switch, and camera. There is a lay-flat screen guard that protects your screen from dirty little hands that might still have peanut butter on them (It happens a few times in my household). Before the Q Card Case I had a heavy and clunky case and the Q is hands down a better case to protect my iPhone.
Booqpad Agenda iPad Mini Case
Last month I got my wife an iPad Mini for Valentine’s Day. She kept taking my iPad so I thought if she had her own I could get mine back. It worked in theory until my wife lets our daughters use her iPad and when that happens she goes back to use my iPad. Sharing is caring is what I always say to my kids so I have to practice what I preach. Just like my iPhone I needed to protect my wife’s iPad. I got her the Booqpad Agenda case for the iPad mini.
The case has a clasp to keep the cover closed when it is not in use. There is a holder of a stylus or pen inside the case as well as a notepad to jot down notes or doodle. The Agenda is slim and lightweight just like the iPad mini. It also comes in handy when we go grocery shopping to keep our list in the case and when we bring the iPad in to see what ingredients we need to buy for a new recipe.
Toddy Gear: Toddy Wedge
Now this product almost sounds like a nickname for the word toddler, but it is a great way to help keep your iPhone upright if you and the kids are watching a movie. The Toddy Wedge feels like a mini bean bag that you can use at home or on the go with the kids. This stand allows you to watch a movie or Skype with family members, is totally hands free and is available on americaninventorspot.com. That alone is worth its weight in gold since both my daughters want to hold the phone when we are on FaceTime. I can put the phone on the wedge and we are good to go and there is no fighting on who will hold the phone.
The stand also had a microfiber that allows you to clean your iPhone screen of any smudges and fingerprints. (Remember what I said earlier about the peanut butter) I also use this stand in my car when I am using GPS on my phone. Another great feature is that it is machine washable in case if gets dirty which will definitely happen in you have kids.
