Garmin and TomTom
With all the traveling that my husband and I do for our kids, we are in need of a good navigational system, like the Garmin and TomTom ones (shown below). I love that they come with a variety of different features, depending on the device chosen, including lifetime map updates, hands-free use, voice recognition and more. They’d definitely help when I’m driving and panicking about where I’m supposed to turn because roads aren’t clearly marked. If I don’t have to pull over to change addresses, that would be awesome. Less chance of an accident.

JBL
The JBL speakers and earbuds are perfect for our hooligans. The three oldest could use the JBL Charge 2 to play their different playlists without us having to worry about them each needing their own device. In a frugal family like ours, any way that we can save is great.
And I think it’s really near that the JBL Flip 2 allows you to pick up phone calls on it. That could come in handy in the house when I’m cleaning or working and don’t want to hold the phone in my hand.

Xbox One
We don’t play a huge amount of games in our house, but when we do, we want to make sure that the kids have age-appropriate games to play. Xbox offers a wide range of games to choose from for all ages levels. And for the sports fanatics like my husband, there are some great sports-related games to choose from. Me personally, I like that I can use one device for movies, TV shows and games. I think it looks cleaner than a bunch of devices in the living room to different things.
Xbox One is a gaming console that takes gaming to a whole new level with a wide range of games to choose from, like Halo, Sunset Overdrive, Assassin’s Creed, Call of Duty, Madden 15, FIFA 15, NBA 2K 15, Fantasia: Music Evolved, Just Dance 15, and Skylanders.
You can also use an Xbox One to watch your latest TV shows and movies.
