Father’s Day Gift Ideas: Jawbone JAMBOX and ERA – Giveaway

Jambox by Jawbone

 

Its getting close to the wire and I wanted to show off some items that you can pretty much just walk into a store and pickup within 15 minutes and have a pretty sweet gift.  Let me introduce you too…

JAMBOX by Jawbone [amazon]

JAMBOX by Jawbone is a portable, wireless speaker that packs a jaw-droppingly loud punch — wirelessly delivering audio for any dad’s favorite music, movie, games from their iPod, laptop, tablet or smartphone.

  • JAMBOX will give Dad the freedom to play his favorite audio in the places he enjoys it most – whether cranking the sound on his favorite war flick, listening to Kenny G while grilling out back, or rocking out to The Beach Boys aboard his fishing boat.  [*Disclaimer: Jawbone is not responsible for your dad’s dance moves!]
  • JAMBOX comes in four brilliant colors (we recommend Gray or Black for Dad) and SRP is $199.

Jawbone ERA [amazon]

Give your dad an extra hand with Jawbone ERA: a hands-free, stylish headset that comes in four bright colors and designs.

  • It lends an extra hand to any super-dad – whether he’s on a business trip, cooking dinner or coaching T-ball.
  • ERA uses voice-to-text technology that allows dads to dial, email, text or Tweet – just by using his voice. It can also stream music or give turn by turn GPS directions right to the ear. SRP is $129.

Both products are available at www.jawbone.com and select Best Buy and Apple Stores across the country. Please let us know what you think…

We’re giving away a Jambox – which sounds really cool – cause I can always use more volume from those iPad speakers!!!

Father’s Day Gift idea: Clothes that make the DAD!  with Giveaway

Father’s Day Gift idea: Clothes that make the DAD! with Giveaway

I’ve been loving a few clothing companies lately that are really doing amazing things for kids and for dads.

Blume – good lord those clothes are tooooooo cute! Who doesnt love a baby in a tie. Matching outfits aren’t just for moms and daughters anymore. With Father’s Day quickly approaching you can stop scrambling to find dad the perfect gift. This Father’s Day your ‘little man’ can buy dad a shirt to match. Blume introduces the “Big Man” collection, the same tie tees in a big new way!

Kourtney Kardashian - Mason wears Blume!

Tori & Dean's Liam

Beckham Boys

Blume is the innovator of the “Little Man” collection- the real handmade ties on tees have been featured in lots of glossy mags like PEOPLE, US Weekly, and OK! with trendsetting celebrity tots like the Beckham Boys, Kourtney Kardashian’s son- Mason, and Tori Spelling’s son – Liam.  All the buzz inspired us to enlarge the offerings  – literally! Just ask Shaquille O’Neal who got the ball rolling on this new trend when he requested a week’s worth of tie tees to match all the ones his sons had – yes, they all really do own Blume Tie Tees! Little boys hope to grow up to be just like their fathers, until then they can dress like them with Blume!
Blume prides itself on creating comfortable, fun, fashionable items for the whole family. Blume collections can be found in fine stores nationwide like Barneys and online at www.blumeguy.com and www.blumebaby.com. The other cool part is they don’t limit ties to just the boys, they’ve got great little girl tie sets too.We’ve got a great giveaway at the bottom of the post from blume too – we’re giving away a Blume’s Father and Son Tie Tees Set… Just a quick note these aren’t real ties these are part of the shirts.

 

 

Rockstar Revolution – who is offering 20% off for all of your followers for probably one of the greatest Fathers Day T-shirts on the planet! ‘The Daddy of All Daddies’ is available in 2 colors – Brown Ink on Vintage Blue shirt and Silver Ink on Black shirt and in sizes Small through 5XL.  Here’s the link to the shirt: http://www.rockstarrevolution.com/product-p/dad%201.htm simply enter the code DADDY at checkout to receive 20% off the price of the shirt. They also have RAD (yes you heard me RAD) baby and toddler shirts.

 

 

 

DaddyScrubs – For those that want to be there during the c-section and declare I’m the daddy (not the doctor) or just to have some cozy clothes to hang around the house Daddy Scrubs is just that… Http://www.daddyscrubs.com as another option.

 

 

 

 

Dapper Dude from Diaper Dude – We all know and love the Diaper Dude diaper bags – they’ve come out with a really cute line of father/son ties.  The ties come in two different sizes Boys Zipper Tie 14” (age 3T-6) or Youth Zipper Tie 17” (age 7-12). What is a Zipper Tie? (available in child sizing only). A zipper tie is a tie that is pre-tied with a zipper built in to the knot. You unzip the tie to remove it and zip it up to wear it. Keep and eye out on the DadaRocks’s Facebook page for some great father’s day giveaways this week.
