In theory, I like this. An easily portable, lightweight, hands-free chairless chair. In reality, it looks uncomfortable. I wonder if it is. Thoughts?

For those who rarely need glasses, the Wallet Reading Glasses from Taylor Gifts are a good, practical gift. They fit easily in roughly the space of a credit card, and are easily used and stored. Nice!Paper Towel Pill
This is one of those things that looks like a great idea. It’s simply a paper towel that’s been dehydrated and compressed down to a small cube. Add a few drops of water, and it becomes a large paper towel. Mom’s can throw a few of these in their purse, and it’s great for sudden spills or cleanups. You can keep a few in your car (or work bag, or backpack) for cleanups when regular rags aren’t available – the possibilities are almost endless.

No Cooties Travel Spray
As any 2nd-grader knows, there’s nothing worse than cooties. And that where the No Cooties Travel Spray comes in. Made with a blend essential oils, it’s acti-bacterial properties effectively cleans the air in your vicinity, and helps keep you from getting sick when travelling. And if sprayed in the eyes of the guy next to you, maybe you can take possession of the arm rest!
Brugo Mug
The Brugo Mug is a great travel mug. Not only does it keep hot beverages hot, but it also has a unique way of cooling a small amount of your drink of choice at a time, maximizing the time your drink is at it’s optimal drinking temperature. The Brugo makes a great gift for commuters – they’ll be able to enjoy their coffee for hours!

A great travel gift for kids, the Aquadoodle Go N Doodle will help make traveling with small children go a little bit better. The Aquadoodle works just like a paint pad, except with water instead of paint. Thus no mess, no stains, no painting-eating induced vomit. Hopefully.Travel Bingo
Travel Bingo is back! Some of my funnest memories of family car vacations as a kid were playing Travel Bingo against my brother – and now kids can have the same great experiences. Fun for kids over age four, Travel Bingo is played by marking off windows based on items you see out the window – bicycles, cows, stop signs and others. First one to fill in a column (or for long trips, black out the board), wins!

Car Cooler and Warmer
The nice thing about the Car Cooler/Warmer from AutoAnything is that not only will it keep drinks and food cold on long road trips, but it also will food warm for potlucks, holiday meals, and even from take-out. I’ve used a similar model on long road trips throughout Arizona, Nevada and California, and they really work great!

The Yelpie Beach Safe
When at the beach, I’ve always hated that moment when you want to go play in the water, but you’re apprehensive leaving your valuables behind hidden in your shoe (or cooler, or towel, or wherever). Finally there’s a great solution – the Yelpie. Store everything you want safe in this easy to carry lockbox, and frolic in the waves without worry. If someone grabs the Yelpie without entering your personal PIN number, a 90 decibel alarm sounds that will be sure to deter the thief. What a great idea!
