This Week's Winners and Losers

A bunch of mom-related things came my way this week and I thought I'd highlight the best and worst of them.

The Best:

A special shout out to D for passing this along.

This designer creates one free children's illustration per day.
On the day that the illustration is released it is free to download and print as you like.
After 24 hrs the image can be purchased for a nominal fee ($4.99)

Best of all, each week has a theme (last week's was back to school) so you can download photos that work together in a montage.

Here are just a few examples:



The Worst:

This one came in via A-List Mom.

They are calling it the Ultimate Tantrum Tammer but if you ask me its going a bit too far.

It's called the iLatch. Invented by a mom, its a special iPad case that can be attached to your stroller to play movies for your little one while you walk around. What ever happened to the great outdoors? Watching the world as it goes by and lulling themselves into a non-electronic sleep is what strollers and strolling is for...no?

They do show it being used in a car which is a fantastic idea, but putting it in a playpen or on a kitchen cabinet seems a bit much to me.

What do you think?

Have you spotted anything you think is a mom-must or absolutely shocker? Feel free to share!
