by Liz Gumbinner | Fashion + Accessories, Fitness + Health, Gear + Hardware

I had an original Apple Watch way back when it first came out, and I really liked it. I also ended up feeling like it was “another thing” — another thing to charge, another thing to take care of, another thing to buy accessories for. Sometimes...

These glasses have us asking ourselves if this is real life or is this just fantasy?

by Kristen Chase | Fashion + Accessories

Sorry for the earworm, but the second I saw these IRL Glasses on Kickstarter, I couldn’t stop singing Bohemian Rhapsody, because they seem pulled right out of a sci-fi movie or Black Mirror. If you think I’m exaggerating, you need to see what they can do....

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.
