DALLAS (KDAF) — As we all enjoy our summer fun, the pool, camps, the free time, there’s a cloud lurking on the horizon: summer will end followed by back to school!
What are the must-have Back To School Gadgets for this year? We turned to our gadget guy and host of YouTube’s gadget game show “WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?” Steve Greenberg for some help— here’s what he’s found:
Express Your Feelings Sensory Bottles — these were inspired by hand2mind’s popular Sensory Fidget Tubes, Express Your Feelings Sensory Bottles are a new set of toys featuring colorful, interactive elements that support a child’s social-emotional development. As they flip the securely sealed bottles and watch the glitter gradually fall, they release the energy that big feelings create and start to calm down. The printed faces on every bottle also teach facial and body clues for identifying specific emotions. This toy can be easily incorporated into sensory play or in classrooms to talk about feelings. Includes an Activity Guide designed to encourage discussion and conversation about responding to emotions in positive, proactive ways. The set of bottles are $24.99. To get yours, click here.
OmieBox Lunchbox — is an insulated bento box for kids. The lunchbox design helps parents pack healthier lunches with more variety. It keeps food hot and cold in the same box. Perfect for sandwiches, soups, or both—at the same time! The OmieBox is BPA and Phthalate-free. Sometimes the best inventions are born out of necessity. Nancy Yen came up with the idea for a hot & cold bento box when her son started preschool. He struggled with eating lunch at school and was often hungry and cranky at pick up. Noticing that he preferred warm entrees over sandwiches, she started noodling on a concept for a kid-friendly bento box that could pack a hot entree, fruits & veggies all in one place. One key design feature is the oversized handle – it’s easy to grab, perfect for young children who are still developing fine motor skills. Lids open and close easily, so your little ones can be independent at school. It’s $44.95. Get yours by clicking here.
