BCOZZY can be used three different ways. Whether you want to fold it, so you have an extra cushion between you and the side of the plane (car) if you want to sit straight up to have chin support, or put your head off to the side--there's a way to make this pillow work. Gone are the days of squishy bead pillows. BCOZZY is soft yet supportive! It also comes in different sizes so you and your child can both arrive at your destination well rested, and neck-pain free!

At the close of 2017, more than 60 U.S. municipalities are offering bike-share programs where at little or no cost, you can grab a bike and then return it when finished at any rack or station in the operating area. But how to know where you are going in a new city? SmartHalo is a sensor-like GPS device that attaches to any type of bike handlebar and pairs by Bluetooth with the SmartHalo app. While cycling, the phone stays in the pocket or the purse, and you get the fastest routes, answer calls and track fitness data.
