Hip mom must-have: The Flip Mino
Today’s hip mom must-have is The Flip Mino. This is a small, digital video camera that is so incredibly easy-to-use and small enough to fit in your diaper bag, your purse, even your pocket. We have the Flip Ultra, which is the older version, but the MinoHD was recently released and has received rave reviews. If you are a tech-savvy person or tech-illiterate, there’s no confusion on how to use this camera – there are only about five buttons!
As a mom-on-the-go, I just keep my Flip handy so that I can whip it out and take quick clips
whenever something funny is happening with my kids. The newer versions come in some really cool designs, there’s also an option to customize your own.
There is a retractable USB arm that plugs directly into your computer, so as soon as you’ve taken video clips, you can download them and post them on YouTube or any video sharing network.
“Hip Mom Must-Have” is an ongoing feature and will highlight products to help make your life easier, trendier, more organized and more fun. From gadgets to beauty products to special indulgences, keep on the look out to see what the latest product pick is. These are also great gift ideas for a special hip mama in your life!
If you are in LOVE with a particular product and can’t live without it, I want to know about it! Please send your 'Must-Have' suggestions to motherhoodexaminer@live.com and they could be featured here in a future edition.
