Super Mouth – A New System Of Dental Care For Kids.
When I first saw the Super Mouth display, I thought it was cute toothbrushes for kids. It turns out it’s a lot more than that. Dr. Kami Hoss and his wife have worked in dentistry for 25 years – and they’ve seen how lots of oral care products aren’t working. Having one of the leading group dental practices in the country, specializing in pediatric dentistry, orthodontics, and parent dentistry they discovered kids rush to brush if you make mouth care fun. Identifying this need and opportunity, Dr. Kami immediately worked to gather other dental and medical experts, kid experts who have worked with companies like Disney, Nickelodeon, and Pixar, and scoured the planet for the best and most effective ingredients to create products that answered the call for help. Thus, SuperMouth and a mouth care revolution were born. Watch this week’s and then check their website to see just how complete their dental line is from pregnancy to about 12 years of age.

The JOY FOR ALL Walker Squawker
We’ve shown the Joy For All dog and cat on previous show. They’re companion devices mainly for the elderly. I gave aJoy For All dog to a senior citizen who longed to have a one but wouldn’t be able to take care of it. The Joy For All dog helped a lot. he often told me. New is their Walker Squawker, invented by a woman in her 90’s. It looks like a real bird, but it’s actually a cheery animatronic bird for companionship and to help a person remember to use their walker. CHIRPBACK technology mimics the sounds of real birds. Built-in sensors allow Walker Squawkers to detect light, sound, touch, and movement – making this a truly fun interactive companion! You’ll learn more about it and see it in action on this week’s show. It runs on 2 AAA batteries. There’s a Cardinal and a Bluebird. MSRP is $64.99, but it sells for under $50 on Amazon and Walmart.

Chad’s Crappy Corner
Chad polled our loyal Patreons and they voted on his new theme for July. That winning theme is Cheap Outdoor Gadgets.
Chad’s 2nd Cheap Outdoor gadget is the SkyFoil Kite
Info from the company: Our products offer superior performance that redefines the kite flying experience; Choose your favorite theme: dragon, butterfly, unicorn, bird, plane, shark, rainbow and more. Innovative designs in ready to fly configurations, our kites feature fiberglass construction, durable Ripstop Nylon, in flight animation, and stable flight. Great for the beach or park.
And Chad’s take: Chad liked this kite a lot, mainly because there is zero assembly needed. Take it out the box, attach the string via the built-in click and it’s ready to fly. The winds didn’t seem exactly ideal for Chad, but you’ll see his kite fly on this week’s show. And you’ll see how easy it is to fold it up again & put away until the next flight. It takes up very little space. It was under $14.00.
There are a ton of kites on Amazon at varying prices, but this seems to be the exact one Chad has. It’s called ZigZag: https://amzn.to/45308E3

Dick’s Gadget Warehouse
Our email this week is from Linda Norman. Linda writes:
Hi Dick and Chad,
My husband and I are in the process of cleaning out an old storage area we have had for almost 30 years. We are both techies and have collected lots of cool gadgets over the years, some of which I have already shown off on the Giz Wiz. This time I have two small gadgets that I pulled out of a box of random stuff. The first I’m going to do as a “what the heck is it?” though Dick might recognize it right away. The second is an old Franklin Webster Spell checker that had a surprise for me. This one you can still find on Ebay and Amazon. The links are below.
Love the show, Linda Norman
