Here’s a bit of trivia: did you know that September has the highest numbers of babies born, followed by August, July, then June? Guess what that means? Statistically, you’re going to be invited to some baby showers in the near future.

As any veteran parents can tell you (and grandparents too), there’s a lot of crap on the market for parents. There’s a simple reason for this: new parents will buy anything. Slap a smiling kid on the label, produce it in a pastel color, and it’s marketing gold.

So we’ve narrowed down the latest in tech that is designed to make things easier for the new parents in your life while simultaneously elevating you to the status of best aunt or uncle ever.

Either way, these things are pretty cool.

This smartphone baby monitor device is great because there are no crazy wiring fiascoes waiting for you. The camera sends images to your phone so you can check on your baby any time.
