It generates its own Wi-Fi wireless connection for your smart device (no frequency interference!). The impressive wireless range lets it travel up to 200 ft. unobstructed, up to 100 ft. around walls into other rooms. Navigate it with the on-screen driving arrows or use the G-Drive Mode that uses your device’s accelerometer like a steering wheel in your hand. Now on sale for $99.99 its a steal! and the kids will LOVE IT! Remember they also need a iOS device first… otherwise this gift will get pricey when they ask you to buy it as well! I personally tested this bad boy out and its SWEET!

Slip your feet in and two powerful water jets get to work right away. Just choose your speed, sit back and enjoy as it works to increase circulation, relieve tight muscles and relax tired feet. But the relief doesn’t end there—two rolling nodes provide kneading massage to your arches leaving no tired muscle untouched.
Most important part of this one is to give her time to use it.
Built-in support system cradles your head and neck, to help keep your chin out and your airway more open.
At first glance, the pillow looks–and feels–like a pressure-relieving memory foam neck pillow. Inside, an innovative support system cradles your head and neck, keeping your chin out to help keep your airway more open. Back sleeper or side sleeper, it makes no difference. You get the sleep support and comfort you need, and your partner can finally sleep through a quiet night, too. To customize the support level of the pillow to your specific size, simply unzip the removable, washable outer cover to access the three removable support pads. Pillow fits into a standard pillow case.
The pressure-sensitive LCD surface displays lines of different thickness–just like pen and paper. Jot down thoughts with the included stylus or other suitable instrument (even your fingernail!). You can also erase at the touch of a button. Worried you’ll accidentally erase? The erase-lock switch on the side prevents accidental erasure. Ultra-thin, the Boogie Board 10.5 size is only ½” thick—saving space while also saving reams of waste paper from impacting the environment. Convenient stylus holder built-in on the top. One-touch erase button clears the screen, 2 replaceable AAAA batteries (last for tens of thousands of erases) and cleaning cloth included. < I’ve seen this now 4 times in the airport stores and I’ve played with it for 10 minutes each thinking how much my toddler son would love drawing on this!
For in-laws: Mini Flask (wait this might be better suited as a present to yourself)

Having a toddler really means a mini copy cat… they do whatever you want to do or plan on doings… the best example is prepping food for a meal – whenever we go into the kitchen our child runs in and starts shouting I want to help!
Well when we are sitting on the couch he wants a square – but we’re totally trying to break him of these habits and having furniture that is his size and really build/bought for him makes it much easier. It also helps to have characters on the item that he really connects with…

Sodura was established in January of 2011 with one goal: To provide functional, well-made modern furniture. Sodura is made up of parents just like you who want furniture for their child’s room that has style, and is still comfortable. In other words, to be modern and have style doesn’t mean that it looks like it was made for the Jetson’s. You’ll see that this furniture is practical, functional, and of the highest quality on the market, and that’s backed up by a great guarantee.
Sodura uses eco-friendly products in all of their furniture, so no lead based paint will be found in the product. Water-based finishes are used, which are low in VOC’s and are non-flammable and non-toxic. The wood has no formaldehyde added and so does the glue, which means there won’t be any harmful fumes coming from the product over time. Sodura is based in Louisville, KY where all of our products are proudly made.
About the Table and Stools Set
The table and stools set is a fun little play set for kids and parents, too. That sounds a little funny that it would be fun for parents too, but it really is a cool little set that won’t look awkward when it’s mixed in with adult furniture. Most kids furniture has a cartoon look and feel, but the Aero set is more like modern furniture that is miniature. Kids can have their play furniture right in the living room or family room and it will add to the interior design instead of distracting from it. We all know that kids like to have their own special place, but they also want that special place to be close to their parents.
This set is designed to be used for coloring, snacking, or even a play date with games and Lego’s. The set comes with two stools but it’s big enough for 4 toddlers and still has enough room for coloring books and crayons.
Colors:
Blonde – Natural wood tones
Whitewash – It is white, semi transparent so that you can still tell it’s a wooden table/stool
Cocoa – dark chocolate brown
Dimensions
Table: 26″L x 26″W x 26″H
Stool 13″L x 13″W x 12″H
Material:
Birch outer layer and poplar core.

If you should ever get a rhinoceros for a pet, you’re in for a surprise. It won’t chase a ball. Or a stick. Or a frisbie.

As you’ll discover in Jon Agee’s hilarious picture book, rhinoceroses can do more–so much more–than that!
