SAMLITE handheld Mini Bike Pump with Glue-less Puncture Repair Kit

https://www.amazon.com/SAMLITE-handheld-Glue-less-Puncture-Schrader/dp/B01N6YXJ56/ref=cm_cr_srp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

My son goes riding with his young son's frequently. There has been a time or two that somebody had a low tire, and they had to call for help. I hope now they won't have to call for help. I bought the SAMLITE handheld Mini Bike Pump with Glue-less Puncture Repair Kit for my son to attach to his bike to have in emergencies.

I cannot tell you yet if the pump works well or not, as so far, he hasn't needs to use it. I read the reviews, both good and bad, before I purchased the pump. This is what I was looking for, so I am willing to take a chance. I will update my review if I need to.

Bluetooth MIFA F10 Portable Speaker with Enhanced 3D Stereo Bass Sound, Dustproof & Waterproof with Built-in Mic and Micro SD Card Slot

https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-MIFA-Portable-Dustproof-Waterproof/dp/B07239JFZT/ref=cm_cr_srp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

My husband and I love to go hiking with our grandsons. I like to listen to music while We're out. I hate to have my phone out to be able to listen, as it ties up one of my hands that way. Looking around, I found a portable, small speaker that had good reviews. I bought the Bluetooth MIFA F10 Portable Speaker with Enhanced 3D Stereo Bass Sound, Dustproof & Waterproof, with Built-in Mic and Micro SD Card Slot. I love that I can connect my phone to it, via Bluetooth, in about a minute. Them I put my phone away, clip this speaker box to my backpack, and we're off! The sound from thus speaker is really good. Not too much base or any echo. If my phone rings, I just push the button and answer my phone. The mic on the speaker is good. I can also tecord my own music onto a micro SD card, and pop it into the speaker for personal enjoyment. My grandsons really love this speaker, and argue over whose turn it is to have it on their backpack

Steering Wheel Cover by CarCoo

https://www.amazon.com/Steering-CarCoo-Comfortable-Stretch-steering/dp/B01MZ29UFJ/ref=cm_cr_srp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

I live in West Texas. During most of the year, when I get in my car, everything inside is incredibly hot to the touch. Trying to keep my hands on the black steering wheel is next to impossible. I finally gave in and bought the
Steering Wheel Cover by CarCoo. It is tight stretching it on, but this also means it isn't going to slide around, or come off while I'm driving. Keeps my steering wheel cool to the touch during these hit days we're having.

Maggift Magnetic Wristband Adjustable Tool Wristband with 6 Magnets

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06XG7MYXD/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

My husband loves to tinker around in his shop. Keeps him busy on his down time. He is terrible about taking something apart, laying the bolts and nuts on his table, then knocking them off. I got tired of him griping, and bought the Maggift Magnetic Wristband Adjustable Tool Wristband with 6 Magnets for him to stick these to while he's working on his project. If he needs to stop for a bit, he can take the bracelet off, lay it on his table, and his parts stay together.  He likes it, and I hear less cussing, because he didn't lose a bit or bolt!

Rockbirds LED Flashlight

https://www.amazon.com/Rockbirds-Flashlight-Tactical-Hunting-Fishing/dp/B00X61AJYM/ref=cm_rdp_product

We do a lot of hiking with our grandchildren. Sometimes, we are out after dark. I wanted a small flashlight that would be easy for them to carry as we're walking. I bought the 2-pack of Rockbirds LED Flashlights for them to use. I doubt that these lights a 200 lumen, but they are bright enough for our little guys. The flaslights have 3 settings - bright, dim, and flashing. Our grandsons seem to like to have them flashing. The lights require an AA battery, which was not included, but easy enough to put one in. I don't think these lights would stand up to being dropped very hard, but thankfully, we haven't had to find out.

Tall Canvas Laundry Bag/Container/Bin/Basket 21x16x10"

https://www.amazon.com/Laundry-Container-21x16x10-Foldable-Natural/dp/B072M8K8MT/ref=cm_rdp_product

My son is the World's worst about just throwing his dirty clothes in the floor of his room. We have a hamper, but I don't think he knows it exists. I bought the organizerLogic Tall Canvas Laundry Bag/Container/Bin/Basket 21x16x10" to put in his room. It is big, and should hold several days worth of his dirty clothes. Now I just need to convince him to use it!

Lunaoo 10 Silicone Popsicle Molds

https://www.amazon.com/Lunaoo-Silicone-Popsicle-Approved-Frozen/dp/B073LW6XYV/ref=cm_rdp_product

My grandson just turned one, and he is teething. One of the things we use to soothe his gums is popsicles. Store bought popsicles have so much sugar in them, and we try to limit the amount of sugar he has.

I purchased the Lunaoo 10 Silicone Popsicle Molds to make popsicles at home for him. We make milk popsicles, pudding popsicles, and juice popsicles using these molds. I think his favorite popsicle is a pickle juice popsicle!

The molds are easy to clean. I just wash them on the top shelf of the dishwasher. If you find that the popsicles don't come out easily, spray the insides of the molds with nonstick cooking spray.

NGSIR 2 Packs LED Safety Lights for Walking Jogging Cycling Running 

https://www.amazon.com/Walking-Jogging-Cycling-Running-Included/dp/B071XHD2WV/ref=cm_rdp_product

My grandsons love to ride their bikes at night with their parents. I like to make sure their bikes are well-lit up, so others will see them. They have headlights and taillights. I saw the Onestone LED Safety Lights for Walking, Jogging, Cycling, or Running, and I thought these blue lights would bring even more attention to them at night. I purchased a set, and put one on each bike. I have them use the lights in the flashing mode when they are riding, as I personally think that is more noticeable. I don't think these would work on a boat. But they are great for bicycles or backpacks. Easy to strap on.

Kungix Mosquito Repellent Bracelet, Kungix 5 Pack Premium Plant-Based Essential Oils slap bracelets

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0719963N7/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

My son is taking his 4 sons camping this weekend. In West Texas, heat brings mosquitoes! I hate for the boys to be bitten while they are outdoors. I purchased the Kungix
Mosquito Repellent Premium Plant-Based Essential Oils slap bracelets for them to wear this weekend.

These bracelets are so. They don't look like repellent bracelets.  The boys really like them, especially since they are slap bracelets.

At the end of the weekend, I will update my review to let you know how the bracelets worked.

OMZER 10x25 Automatic Fixed-Focus High Power Waterproif Binoculars with low light Night Vision 

https://www.amazon.com/OMZER-Automatic-Fixed-Focus-Waterproof-Binoculars/dp/B073RFJ7Z5/ref=cm_rdp_product

We love to take our grandsons hiking at State Parks. We look for mushrooms, birds, squirrels, and other types of wildlife. Sometimes, the wildlife is at a distance, and the boys have a hard time spotting it. I bought the OMZER 10x25 Automatic Fixed-Focus High Power Waterproof Binoculars with low light Night Vision so that they could see the wildlife, both day and night. These binoculars are compact, just the right size for their small hands. They come with a case that can be attached to their belt, keeping the binoculars safe, but within grasp for when they want to use them. They also have a strap, so the binoculars can be worn around their neck, if they want to. My 8-year old has been wearing these binoculars in their case, attached to his belt, every day since they arrived, even though we are waiting for the weekend to go hiking.

LEDGLE 900lm LED Diving Headlight Submarine Torch Waterproof Headlamp with 3 Brightness Modes 

https://www.amazon.com/review/R199EZLZ04928X/ref=pe_1098610_137716200_cm_rv_eml_rv0_rv

As I will be mailing this light to my daughter in Hawaii to try out on a dive, I will not attest to it being waterproof yet. My daughter and son-in-law are stationed in Oahu, and are certified divers. They dive almost every weekend. I purchased the LEDGLE 900lm LED Diving Headlight Submarine Torch Waterproof Headlamp with 3 Brightness Modes, as tbey are pkanning to do some night dives in the future. This light is bright. I put it on and went outside. I was happy with the amount of light it out out. Again, I don't know how it will perform in the water. The 3 modes of light are bright, dim, and flashing. The headband is adjustable for different head sizes. The batteries were not incvluded, so you will need 3 AA batteries. I will update this review after my daughter tries out the light on a dive.

Fun Central LED toy 24 Inch Camo Sniper Rifle

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B071Y89JGS/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Boy, I am glad I am sending this gun home with my grandsons! I live buying things for my grandsons. My 4-year old grandson spotted the Fun Central LED toy 24 Inch Camo Sniper Rifle and wanted it, so I bought it for him. The gun does feel a little cheap if he were to bang it into stuff. He LOVES the noise and the lights that flash. The only problem is, now I need to buy 3 more for his brothers!

Kakalu Assorted Non-Skid Ankle Cotton Socks with Grip for 12-36 months

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01M13QICO/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

My grandson is 13 months old,and just learning to walk. My daughter has hardwood floors throughout the house, and he slips easily. I bought the Kakula non-skid socks for him because I thought they were cute. I like the non-skid on the bottom. We did have to turn the socks inside out and burn the loose threads. When he has his non-skid socks on, he can really move fast in his walker. Watch out for your own toes, because he will run them over! The socks do run big, but he has fat little feet, and will grow into them. These socks are just too cute! 5 stars!

NEWBARK 10 Butterflies 18k Gold Plated Cubic Zircon Women's Ring

https://www.amazon.com/NEWBARK-Butterflies-Yellow-Plated-Zircon/dp/B0197O6XJ6/ref=cm_rdp_product

My son and his girlfriend like to go out with friends. I like for her to look nice with him. I purchased several pieces of jewelry for her to wear. When I saw the NEWBARK 10 Butterflies 18k Gold Plated Cubic Zircon Women's Ring, I thought it would look really nice on her. The color is really nice. The zirconias are pretty. The only problem is that the ring runs small in size. She wears an 8, and this ring does not fit her. I really wish the size would have been right.
