For Family Game Time Fun
Positive human touch has a profound effect on the brain and body. A hug, a high-five, a caress: they all prompt a release of “happy chemicals” in us. Like oxytocin, known as “the love hormone”. Those happy chemicals do great things: they ease us out of fight-or-flight mode, make us feel close to and trusting of others, help calm our immune systems, and more,” states Nick Bentley, a North Star Games developer who happens to have a PhD is Neurobiology. “Happy Salmon creates a level of touch close enough to release a flood of happy chemicals, but not so close it’s awkward. The players can feel it, and it makes them feel good, and that makes the touching even more enthusiastic and effective, in a viciously happy circle. The game achieves this in 60 seconds with just a deck of cards! It could not be more perfect. Check out how to play, or grab the games at your local Target!

For Those Who Love a Breath Of Fresh Air
Compatible with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Nest, IFTTT and more, the Awair 2nd Edition monitors the five key air pollutants: fine dust, chemicals (Volatile Organic Compounds), CO2, humidity, and temperature. It gives more acute readings of “Fine Dust” levels (or PM2.5), which is typically very difficult to detect yet easy to breathe in. Air quality levels are shown directly on the device’s LED display to help users ‘see the invisible’ at a glance. See the data from the device in the free partner (iOS and Android) app, giving you real-time notifications so you know when your air needs attention along with personalized recommendations to improve air quality. There’s even a Sleep Report feature within the app that uses an algorithm to help users optimize their bedroom for a good night’s rest.
Another great option is the Eve Room which allows you to monitor your air quality and then turn on your air purifier as air quality deteriorates or your humidifier or dehumidifier as needed. Keep your climate under control with the push of a button. Keep an eye on the temperature and make sure everyone is as comfortable at home as possible.
