Yo Gabba Gabba takes over your smart phone

by Cool Mom Staff | Cell Phone Accessories

It’s no secret that we love Yo Gabba Gabba as much as (if not slightly more than) our kids. One quick search on Cool Mom Picks will result in a slew of YGG inspired toys, shoes, yes, even finger puppets. So it’s only natural that we’d be unreasonably...

Turning your iPhone into a Leica. (At least on the outside.)

by Cool Mom Staff | Cell Phone Accessories

While it’s clear that the smartphone is the new camera (and GPS and address book and pretty much everything else), I kind of love that someone has walked right into it with vinyl iPhone skins that look like actual cameras. At istickercool on Etsy, you can find a...

Flying the flag 2.0

by Cool Mom Staff | Cell Phone Accessories

As a military spouse, I don’t need an excuse to show my patriotism with a little red, white, and blue on the 4th of July or any day. Well, with this cool case I can do it with my iPhone 4. This limited edition Patriot iPhone case from Speck is fitted perfectly...

Yarnbomb my cell phone

by Delilah S. Dawson | Cell Phone Accessories

Sometimes, I dream of living in a big city. Not because of the amazing restaurants or beautiful sights or handy mass transit. All that’s great. But my dream is much more romantic and capricious. I long to come across some quality yarn bombing. A statue in a...

Hold the phone. The gihugic rotary phone, that is.

by Cool Mom Staff | Cell Phone Accessories

Every day brings with it amazing new developments in the world of technology. And, of course, I love that. But there are moments when I have fleeting issues with anxiety over just how fast everything is moving. I think those little panic attacks would be the perfect...

3 ways to calm your cell phone radiation fears

by Cool Mom Staff | Cell Phone Accessories

I admit that when I read about World Health Organization report that cell phone use can possibly cause cancer, I got a little bit worried. Before you panic, it’s important to know that no adverse health effects have actually been established. And really,...

Custom iPhone cases for the eco-minded and the artsy-minded

by Cool Mom Staff | Cell Phone Accessories

Last week, I spent a little time with Jaime Derringer, mom-to-be, and genius behind the uber-popular design blog Design Milk. When she pulled out her custom, handmade iPhone case, I couldn’t stop fawning over it. (Seriously. It was a little embarrassing.) Her...

Give your phone a Bone

by Cool Mom Staff | Cell Phone Accessories

Since first seeing the BONE portable iPhone amplifier, I am totally coveting one. Not only does it look terrific in all those pretty colors, but it makes perfect sense for those of us who know how pathetic it is having the kids shouting into the terrible iPhone...

My iPhone wants to feel pretty this spring too

by Cool Mom Staff | Cell Phone Accessories

It’s funny, the iPhone case that seemed so perfect this past fall now is feeling a little dark and heavy, what with spring finally here. I think I’m going to be one of those people who changes my smartphone cover with the season, especially now that...

A custom iPhone case with your uncommon photography

by Mir | Cell Phone Accessories

Remember when we flipped for the stunning array of available gallery images for the various iPhone cases available at This Is Uncommon? We were particularly impressed with the interchangeable plates for the Gallery model. But you knew we couldn’t rest until we...

Can an iPhone case make you happy?

by Cool Mom Staff | Cell Phone Accessories

I love the idea of handmade gadget cases. It seems so yin/yang to merge the soft with the hard, the hand-stitched with the backlit. These little leather gadget pods totally make me happy. While they’re made for anything roughly iPhone sized, I might go a little...

Piquing our Geek: The Cosmonaut is ready for take off

by Christina Refford | Cell Phone Accessories

Now that I’m about to get my hands on a shiny new iPad2 (yay!) I’ve been on the lookout for cool new accessories for my tablet, like the PadPivot that I saw on crowd-funding site Kickstarter a little while back. Now Kickstarter has introduced me to yet...

Hi! We’re Kristen + Liz

Kristen Chase + Liz Gumbinner of Cool Mom Picks

We started Cool Mom Tech in 2010 to help make our increasingly digital lives easier, more organized, more meaningful, and more fun, however old your kids may be.

We love that it's grown to become the go-to source for millions of parents who want commonsense info about tech delivered with a smile.

We even have the privilege of sharing our tips + tricks with The TODAY Show, CNN, HLN, GMA, Nightline, newspapers and magazines around the country, and our favorite -- regular parents who stop us at PTA meetings and ask us how old kids need to be to get a smartphone, and whether they really need to panic about Snapchat.

(Answer: It's complicated.)

We're so glad you're here! And we hope we can help you too.
