# Top Tech Gadgets For Superhero Parents In The Digital Age

Parents can be the ultimate superhero but sometimes they need a sidekick (or gadget) to lend a hand when it comes to their action packed lives. Here is a list of our top tech gadgets to make life easier for all mothers and fathers in the digital age.

## **Keep on the pulse**  
It’s not just the adults that are wearing smart devices to monitor health these days, babies can too. [Owlet](http://www.owletcare.com/) is one of many smart gadgets out there that monitors your baby’s breathing and heart rate by using pulse oximetry, technology found in hospitals. With the small wireless device fitting into a sock, it is easy to slip on and monitor via companion app.

## **Temperature’s rising**  
We live in the age where the use of a smart phone provides so many opportunities, including functioning as a smart thermometer reader.

Things are heating up with [Wishbone](https://wishbonebaby.myshopify.com/). This smart thermometer fits into your smart phone’s headphone jack to accurately determine a temperature reading using inferred technology by measuring forehead skin and liquid temperature. The reading is displayed on its buddy app and can be recorded to create a personal profile along with other symptoms.

## **Counting sheep**  
Track your little bundle of joy’s sleeping patterns with the use of a smart, washable cotton onesie. This innovative movement monitor by [Mimo](http://mimobaby.com/product/) provides parents with their baby’s respiration patterns, sleep activity and movement through the use of sensors transmitted to a smart phone device. It even provides a night report so you can monitor and share with caregivers to have peace of mind (and a goodnight’s sleep!).

## **Don’t be a dummy**  
Make the smart choice when choosing your little one’s dummy. The game-changing [Pacifi-i](https://www.pacif-i.io/) is a thermometer in the disguise of a pacifier. It is a convenient gadget to take a baby’s temperature without causing upset and records information via app. It also allows parents to stay on top of their baby’s response to medication if unwell.
