On Kids and Smart Phones


Ever since smart phones were introduced, I got totally hooked along with the apps that go with it. Since both Hubby and I got smart phones, we can’t help but let the kids play every now and then. You see, there are tons of apps that are nice for the kids. And ever since we started to let them play, they are totally hooked too.

So now, I have to lay down rules for them because there are times that they request to play almost the entire day which is not good. You see, I want them to focus more on books and other creative plays than the games from the smart phones.

First, I make sure that before they get to play with my smart phone, all homework should be done. They have to study first and review their lessons before they can play their favorite games.

Second, they are only allowed to play for an hour or less.

Third, since I have 2 kids with only one smart phone, they have to learn to SHARE and take turns.

These rules look so simple but for a 5 year old and a 3 year old, it is hard especially if they are hooked with the games. There are times that I regret letting them try even one game. But when I see their happy faces while playing, I realized that they too deserve it. The nice thing about the apps that I installed for them is that it is also a way to learn letters, numbers, nursery rhymes and more. So they are not only playing but also learning too!

Shutting the rest of the world through ear-phones!

I love listening to music while I am doing various works in the office and around the house . It gave me a sense of peace, joy and concentration doing my work while listening to music. As I am doing this post I am listening to the latest album of my favorite Christian Contemporary Music band. The gadget earphones allow me to listen to my favorite music while tuning out any external noises such as the TV show on my right , the washing machine running at the service area and the kids playing outside our house. It blocked out the rest of the world and made me getting tasks done a lot easier. Of course there are also restriction to its usage like while driving , exercising and other occasions when hearing noises around is a necessity.

I recently bought four new sets of in-ear headphones during the mall-wide sale last month. Pink for my daughter, Black for my son and husband and white for me. I love our new earphones because the design is so comfortable in my ears. Compared to my old brand, this one delivers smooth sound with enhanced bass and it has a carrying case comfortable for at home or during travels. 

With regards to our kids’ usage of MP3 players, we always reminds them to regulate the volume and the duration. We are aware that high volumes will result to hearing loss so we are monitoring their usage too!

Nokia... Samsung....

My son’s cellular phone was lost 3 weeks ago. According to him, his Nokia Sliding phone slipped out from his pants. It’s possible because his uniform’s pocket is satin and maybe while sitting in public utility vehicle it glided out . He was in a hurry going to school and his mind was pre-occupied with his school assignments so he told me he didn’t noticed anything. Whew! That phone was our gift on his birthday lat May and it cost us a considerable amount of money. 

Now, he’s begging for Samsung Wave 525 but his father told him to wait for two week so that he will learn a lesson . Actually I’ll go for Samsung Phone this time since it’s on sale but most of all samsung phone batteries are heavy duty and that it’s resale value is higher.For the mean, we will just let our son used our old Sony Erickson P990i.

After Sales Support

If you are planning to go to Singapore and go shopping for Gadgets, Equipments and Tools then visit the city of Merlion at the end of the month. Why? Because they offer regular sale for these items every month end. If only we knew about this in advance , we should have scheduled our vacation last week of June. We went there first week of July and were not able to get a good buy on cameras and Cellphone. I saw Cisco on sale but the brand was new to us ..so we didn't take the risk to buy because we do not have after sales support later.

Gadget Man

A Professor, the Dean of College of Industrial Technical Department and a multi-awarded Teacher ... but when our friend is with our group , we simply call him " The GAdget Man". Why? Because he loves to collect them. Stocked around his belt, bis bag and vehicle are lots of gadgets and tools. He has a Sing Pen with Digital Camera, a multi-deigned laser light, bluetooth/Infra-red device,cap umbrella, sensor alarn, peavey pro sub.. Name it he has it! That is why we fondly call him 'The Gadget Man".
