It always seems like wacky alarm clocks are a dime a dozen, but I like the GrooveToons alarm clock for nano because it offers a playful package and alarmingly normal function.

The device, $50, features the usual snooze button and adjustable volume, and offers the bonus of overnight iPod charging.

For my geek mommies out there, it's gotta be hard to reconcile your love for tech without inviting unwanted information into your kids' eyes and ears. Everything scandalous is a click away on the Internet, and your TV has always posed a big too-much-information-for-little-eyes threat.

I can't wait to tell lilsugar about my latest tech discovery — earphones designed with kids' ears in mind.

And with their isolation design, kids won't have to crank up the volume so loud when they're playing video games, watching movies, or listening to tunes.
