4.  Fireplace Safety Screen

Fireplaces and other hearth products are beautiful, functional additions to any home, but they can pose a risk when not used and attended to with proper vigilance.

Ensure that a safety screen is securely in place when your hearth is in operation to reduce the risk of potential burns, especially when children are present.
 

5.  Carbon Monoxide Monitor

* Home Alert makes one for $44

Carbon monoxide detectors are a lot like smoke detectors, but instead of looking for signs of fire, they detect levels of carbon monoxide. Depending on the brand, detectors operate in one of three ways: with a biomimetic sensor, metal oxide semiconductor, or electrochemical sensor.
Biometric sensors use gels that change color after absorbing a certain amount of carbon monoxide. Metal oxide semiconductors have silica chips that send electrical signals to trigger an alarm. Electrochemical sensors are considered to be the best in the industry. They use chemical solutions and electrodes that release currents to sound an alarm.

You'll want to install carbon monoxide detectors like smoke detectors—on every level of your home. For areas with more carbon monoxide producing appliances, like your kitchen, garage, and basement, you should install multiple detectors.
 

6.  Screentime App

www.screentimelabs.com

The Screen Time app—built for parents by parents and born out of one father’s struggle witnessing his eldest son develop an unhealthy attachment to technology—is designed to help people manage their kids’ screen time to ensure they are enjoying the benefits of tech in balance with offline socialization, activities and adventures.
Yet many parents have not considered what impact the new devices will have on their children’s lifestyle balance. While technology has benefits—from developing language skills to learning enhancements—too much of it can have adverse effects on kids, contributing to behavioral issues, obesity, sleep irregularity and more.
American Academy of Pediatrics Screen Time Recommendations: only video-chatting for children under 18 months; only high-quality programming for toddlers 18-24 months with parental co-viewing; no more than one hour of supervised screen time per day for kids ages 2 to 5; and consistent limits for youth over age 6—and yet many children are logging up to seven hours of screen time per day, including TV, tablets, smart phones, computers and other devices (read more here and here).

5.  WHOOSH! Screen Shine

This is the ideal product for getting rid of germs on electronic devices, or on services in general. Research has shown that the screen of a phone can be up to 10 times dirtier than a toilet seat! Many of us may think using our shirt to wipe the smudges off the screen is sufficient, but that doesn’t take care of the bacteria that still linger on the screen and often just pushes the dirt and grime around the screen. WHOOSH! Screen Shine is an entirely new way to not only rid your phone or tablet screen of bacteria, smudges and dirt but it also leaves behind a nano-film that resists dust and fingerprints. Using the antimicrobial microfiber cloth and non-toxic solution together keeps your screen looking the same as when it came out of the box!
    Antimicrobial microfiber cloth and liquid solution work in tandem to remove bacteria, oils and smudges
    Unique formula leaves a nano-coating that repels dust, smudges and fingerprints to keep the screen looking new
    Formula is non-toxic and does not contain alcohol or ammonia making it odorless and eco-friendly
    Safe for all screens
    Available in .3 oz, 1oz and 3.7 oz   $7, $10 and $20
