• Little Sleep Machine, for When You Need a Little Sleep

  I like the idea of the Little Sleep Machine, and not just because the gadget photographs so nicely. The preloaded audio player comes with three hours of soothing music, all of it loaded with natural delta-wave frequencies. As with some other audio sleep aids we've seen, your brainwaves are supposed to lock onto the delta waves and follow them into Snooze-ville. Read More...

• Nextar Ribbit 1GB MP3 Players Hopping Into Toys 'R' Us

  We all have our own opinions about which MP3 players are essential for grownups, but kids' MP3 needs can usually be met by something way less than a pricey player with a lowercase "i" in its name. And when the budget-friendly player is as kid-appealing as this 1GB Ribbit from Nextar -- now headed into Toys "R" Us as part of a bigger Easter promotion -- we're, um, hoppy all over about the news.

• Baby's First MP3 Player

  There are a lot of crazy baby products out there, and this one is, well, borderline. If you don't want to subject your iPod to your toddler (but you still think it might be fun to get an MP3 player for your one year old) then you should probably check out the SweatPea3 MP3 player.

• iCrib for Parents Who Don't Want to Hear the Same *$^#&$ Song Over and Over

  I've been loving on Munchkin products lately, and the iCrib is the latest I've stumbled upon. The simple, easy-to-use mp3 stereo for your baby's crib allows you to doc your mp3 player (such as an iPod) and then play. What makes it baby-friendly is  Read More...

• Cram and Jam: LeapFrog's Crammer Study System Launches

  Aimed at grades 3 through 8, LeapFrog's Crammer Study and Sound System rolls into stores today, and as with the equally impressive Didj we covered not too long ago, this one's as much a winner in design as it is in practice. After the jump: An up-close look at the Crammer, along with some sample questions from the device that'll have you wondering if you really are smarter than a 5th grader... Read More...

  Whether it ends up in the dorm room, the kids' bedroom or your room, the iPig is one of the coolest-looking (if not -sounding) iPod docking stations we've seen. Read More...

• Rockin' Stuffed Animal

  If only all new baby toys utilized an MP3 player component. What, you don't want to hear the synthesized version of Rock-A-Bye Baby one more time as your kid plays on her playmat? The makers of iBedoo realize that many parents Read More... Posted Aug 07 2008, 04:35 PM by Erin Behan with | with 2 comment(s) Filed under: sigikid, mp3 players, elb, ibedoo

• Homade LEGO MP3 Player is Music to Blockheads' Ears

  You'll notice the word "LEGO" doesn't actually appear anywhere on this Homade MP3 Player ($46 from Homeloo). Still, it's pretty clear which famous block inspired the player's design (and packaging, for that matter), and outside of conceptualizing your own, you won't get a more accurate-looking LEGO/MP3 hack than this. After the jump: a full round-up of Homade's LEGO-inspired MP3 gadgets, speakers included. Read More...
