I was recently invited to a Verizon blogger event and learned about new technology and Verizon services. As a mom of three, I am always on the go and like products that simplify my life. I am also very concerned about keeping my kids safe and love the technology that helps me protect my family. Check out these new products and plans currently available!

TECHNOLOGY FOR HOME SAFETY & TO SIMPLIFY YOUR LIFE

1. CANARY HOME SECURITY- This device can stream real-time video and audio from your home right to your smart phone. It has a motion detector and will start recording video, even with night vision, as soon as motion is detected. You can even set it to activate an alarm. The device also monitors the temperature, humidity and air quality in your home. This device is easily controlled with a Smart phone app. Best part, you pay once for the product and there is NO monthly fee to protect your home!

2. KWIKSET KEVO KEYLESS ENTRY – This keyless entry lock will open with just a touch to the handle when your bluetooth enabled smartphone or key fob is nearby. You can set this up for everyone in your house, including your kids. There is an option to send notifications when the door is accessed, so you can know when your kids are home when you are not. You can also activate a one-time entry for guests or neighbors who need to check on your home or let your dog out.

3. GIZMO PAL WATCH – I was really impressed with this product for young kids. It’s a simple watch that can dial up to two select numbers with a push of the button. The watch can be set up to receive phone calls from up to four numbers. This is a great way for your young children to contact you if they aren’t quite ready for a ‘real’ phone. The best part is you purchase the watch and only pay $5 a month through Verizon to add it to your plan. That’s the cost of a cup of handcrafted coffee and it gives you peace of mind.

4.GARMIN VIVOFIT – The hot new thing for technology are fitness bands that track your steps, calories burned and even sleep patterns. The affordable Garmin Vivofit is unique because it is waterproof and does not to be recharged (uses 2 coin batteries that can last up to a year.) This is compatible with many smartphones and tablets so you can track your progress and sleep patterns.

5. MOPHIE CHARGER CASES- I just recently learned about Mophie charger cases and love them! Basically, your phone case is a backup battery and can fully charge your phone once when you are on the go. The Mophie pack charges when you charge your phone. Then, when your phone is low on battery, simply flip a switch and your phone starts recharging from the back up battery built into the case. Never be stuck with a dead cell phone again!

2. SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT – Want to talk to a representative in-store, but hate the long lines and waits? Simply, schedule an appointment with a Verizon store and get assistance at that time. This is great for me, because taking kids to a store and waiting a long time is never fun. An appointment means you can skip the lines and speak with a representative in-person about your cell phone and technology needs.

3. FREE TECH SUPPORT CLASSES – New technology can be confusing. Verizon offers FREE tech support classes that help you navigate your new device. Simply register for a class and enjoy a free demo and the support you need to maximize your new phone, tablet or device. Click here to find workshops in your area.

4. VERIZON SMART REWARDS – Did you know you can get free gift cards, merchandise and travel rewards just for being a Verizon customer? Make sure to register for Smart Rewards to take advantage of this wonderful benefit.
