Disney ihome On The Road
And At Home Perfect Together
A few weeks ago our family of five embarked on a fantastic Road Trip from New Jersey to Florida.
It was an amazing trip to plan and we had so many things to do on our list that at times it felt a little bit overwhelming. But, I am happy to report that our sixteen day #RoadTrip2fun actually ended up being an eighteen day trip and was packed with family memories that will carry on for years to come.
Now, let’s back up to before we actually left on our journey down Route 95 South. We knew that packing up five of us into the van and getting on the road would not exactly be a picnic on the way down or back so it did require some thinking to try to keep everyone in the those back seats happy and comfortable. Since my kids vary in ages there is really nothing on the radio, cds or itunes that they actually agree on listening to as a family. The thought of arguing over music choices for 23 hours in the car sent a chill down my spine.
It was then I realized that everyone needed their own choices, devices, etc. Disney ihome was kind enough
to present us with three different ways to keep everyone content! What a magical dream come true!
Although we all just loved the looked of the Disney ihome products that arrived, cuteness means nothing if they do not live up in quality. Well, EIGHTEEN days of the road trip as my witness, these were a miracle.
My daughter immediately fell in love with the Minnie Mouse Bow-Tastic headphones, complete with Minnie Bow. Emily just thought she was “It” wearing them. I loved them because they have a volume control on them. Perfect for moms and dads who really don’t want their children pumping up the volume! The headphones were also comfortable. These are a must for your little one! They really lived up and were used on the road and also in the hotels, not to mention just how adorable they are. Honestly, I thought that they would be stored in the car for when we were on the road, but my daughter grabbed them and threw them into her bag for inside use, too! They are a definite thumbs up from both Emily and Mommy, too!
My middle son took total control of the Where’s My Water noise isolating earphones. Okay, so I HAD to laugh at this choice! By the time we hit ten hours in the van I was about to pull them off of him and use them for myself! Truth be told, I did test them out. They are great for MOMS! Noise isolating anything is perfect for me. I put them in my ears, closed my eyes and listened to some awesome music. It was a glorious FIVE minutes! Then my son wanted them back! Yes, I thought it was rude, too! Well, at least he made total use of them both in the van and at night in the room. He has never had a pair of noise isolating anything before, so he was in awe of the way he could just sit there in the middle of all of us and play his favorite music with no outside noise interference. When the middle child is happy, everyone is happy! Another winning product!
My oldest son took custody of the Kermit Water Resistant Stereo. Well, who did not see that coming?
He has always been a Muppets fan. I was not surprised at all. Actually, I was hoping one of the kids would not like their ihome product so that I could grab it for myself. But that did not happen. The Kermit Stereo is just amazing. Anything water resistant is a YES for me! I did have the chance to test this one out when my son was asleep. My ipod loved being inside that Kermit Stereo! It fit perfectly inside and the sound quality was wonderful. It was perfect in the car, with the use of earphones, on our balcony, in the room and by the pool! It gave us hours and hours of music fun no matter where we were on the trip.
Hands down after trying out three of the Disney ihome products, I can’t imagine not purchasing our next product from them. They were a definite thumbs up from our entire family, roadtrip or home.
They are easy to use, can take a lot of movement without any kind of wire splitting and the sound quality is excellent! It was a pleasure to use them during our road trip and they are still in use now!
