Peachy is a simple idea that may just be the trick if you’re trying to teach hand-washing to a little one not quite tall enough to stick his or her hands under the faucet. Invented by a mom, it’s just a cute plastic duck that slips over the faucet spout and extends the water stream out closer to the front of the sink. Couple that with a step-stool and most kids who stand can use this. The only trick is that you still will probably have to turn the faucets on and off. But it will save your back from having to lift your child up over the sink to get close to the water.

GeoPalz pedometer gets kids walking
March 10, 2011 – 12:39 AM
GeoPalz is a simple pedometer with a Manga-themed holder. The technology here isn’t too complicated, but it is a good mix of a simple idea, a little fashion, and some good game psychology to get kids walking.
I gave one GeoPalz to each of my two kids, 7 and 11, and they were jumping around within minutes to get their step count up.
Review: The Pocket Referee – Helps solve kid disputes
January 6, 2011 – 6:33 AM
We like the Pocket Referee. It’s a very, simple low-tech solution to one of the worst part of being a parent: having to continually play King Solomon to children arguing over whose turn it is, or who gets the last cookie. It’s no fun to listen to them whine, and never enjoyable to deal with the child who is disappointed.
The Pocket Referee is a gold silver dollar-sized coin that passes from child to child. The holder of the coin either uses it to be the current decider and passes it on to the other child, or holds on to it when the decision just isn’t that important to him. This is a dad-invented product that deserves a shot if you have two or more kids who fight about every decision.
