Taking the family boat out on the lake is a great way to spend a hot summer afternoon. If you have little ones aboard, a life jacket is an essential safety device that ensures the afternoon passes by safely. Consider the Stearns Child’s Classic Boating Vest if you’re in the market for such a safety device. This life jacket is designed with small children in mind and can fit children with a weight range of thirty to fifty pounds. The vest is constructed out of nylon for durability and is crafted with open sides to ensure a child’s comfort. One inch webbing ensures the boating vest is secure and safe for your child or youth.

Also featured is a leg strap that makes sure the vest stays on the child and in place, even in the water. Best of all, the boating vest is approved by the Coast Guard. If there was one concern among customers providing reviews on Amazon, it would be that the sizing of the flotation device seems to vary. One customer felt the vests seemed too small for kids above thirty pounds, while another felt the vest would work best with children weighing in at forty to fifty pounds. All in all, reviews were very positive.

In our increasingly technological society it seems like there is now a tool for everything the mind can think up. Smartphones can give us turn by turn directions while walking down a sidewalk, help us find the nearest restaurant, and even allow us to pay our bills while riding a city bus. It only seems logical then that we apply this technology to our leisure activities too. That’s where the uPro Golf GPS by Callaway Golf comes into play. The handheld Callaway Upro Golf GPS features a sleek design that fits easily in your golf bag or your pocket. The high-resolution color screen provides aerial and satellite photographed views of your favorite golf courses.

This helps inform you of hole design, pin location, and location of hazards. The handheld golf GPS unit from uPro will even provide golfers with a distance to pin reading to aid in club selection. There are a variety of alternatives to the uPro Golf GPS available on the market and determining if this model is the best should be left to the individual golfer. Alternative models run from $68 to as much as $300, with varying features in comparison to this model. Many online reviewers were happy with their purchase of the uPro Golf GPS by Callaway Golf, but a large portion of those who reviewed the item found too many faults to give it a good rating. The most common complaints were a lack of courses available in uPro’s database, poor battery life, and units that froze the first time they were used. Casual golfers who are also fond of exciting technological tools may find the golf GPS system from uPro to be an exciting addition to their golf bag. However, serious golfers may want to spend a little extra on a more established brand with better features.

The Melissa & Doug Cutting Food Box is a kitchen play set with imaginative mini chefs in mind. This pretend play set includes more than 30 pieces including 8 pieces of food constructed from heavy, durable wood, a wooden knife and a cutting board. This play set ever features the satisfying sound of a “Crunch!” when the food is sliced. Though this Melissa & Doug cutting food box receives 5 out of 5 stars from over 200 reviewers, a handful of reviewers gave it much lower ratings. The main complaint from those that give the product low ratings was that the pieces had an extremely strong odor of paint fumes.

The parents who mentioned this in their reviews found this fact coupled with the fact that the toy was made in China, unforgivable and unappetizing, especially given the recent press regarding the dangerous lead levels found in the paint coating toys imported from China. The Melissa & Doug Cutting Food Box is recommended for children ages 2 and up, but might be more appropriate for children slightly older who will be less likely to place the pieces in their mouths. This will eliminate the worry parents may have about the possibility of dangerous levels of lead in the paint.

Berkley’s Fifty Pound Digital Fish Scale sounds like it could belong in a seafood seller’s market stall or even a fishing boat. However, this nifty scale will do more than weigh fish, and can prove to be very handy to those traveling or engaging in selling items online. Berkley promises this scale to be accurate to within one-quarter of an ounce either way. This Berkley fish scale also boasts a tare function which lets you weigh more than one fish at a time and a memory of the past ten weights taken. It can also calculate settings for combined and average weights. An auto off switch, designed to help save battery life, and a retractable hook round out the features.

Even if you do not fish, this scale can prove valuable. Customers giving reviews on Amazon have found the scale useful for weighing luggage prior to travel, which can help avoid above-weight fees. Also, those participating in selling items online, such as for eBay, have also found the scale ideal for weighing packages prior to shipping. One common concern for customers is the short life batteries tend to have with this scale.
