When my son's brand new IPhone 6s appeared with a cracked screen, it not only broke (sorry for the pun) his heart but also presented us with the problem of getting it repaired. After all, it's the most modern, advanced version of the iPhone and also his favorite belonging in the world, so we needed to remedy the situation at our soonest..without a delay or wait. He wasn't sure exactly how the phone had broken, after owning it for a mere six hours, but we carefully stressed the need to be patient and understand that these things happen to everyone.

On our recent trip abroad, we somehow managed to take more gadgets than usual.  But all for the best as each device came in handy.  Our trips have certainly gotten easier over the years.  Of course, the kids are older, but if we had some of these tools when they were younger, I am sure that our trips would have been easier.  Here are some of the gadgets that I highly recommend you consider taking on your next family trip: 1. The iGo charger is absolutely amazing.  You can charge your phone virtually anywhere, either plugged into the wall or on the Read More

Whenever we are traveling and appear to be on a long plane ride or a fight seems to be brewing between the kids, our iPhones to save the day.  The applications are stimulating and fun enough to distract my 5 and 7 year old kids from having complete meltdowns when they are bored or having trouble sitting still in the car, in a restaurant or anywhere they have to stay sane.  The iPhone aps are as miraculous an invention as the DVD player for us (another necessity on our travels) and have saved us countless times, particularly on our trips Read More
