Something new in child safety: The Onguard Kids Personal Alert Safety System.
 
The OnGuard Kids Personal Alert Safety System is a watch that features a 110-decibel emergency alarm that can be activated by a child in the event of an emergency. It  can also give "peace of mind" to the parents. The watch comes packaged with a DVD hosted by law enforcement official Bob Stuber, who offers safety tips to help avoid abductions and dangerous situations.  The advice is unique, empowers children, and offers parents "peace of mind". It can also be used to signal help when hiking, skiing or for any outdoor activity when help might be needed quickly. The watch comes with 2 interchangeable faceplates, a safety tips DVD, and a handy flashlight that snaps on the wrist band. And it’s only $19.95.

The manufacturer adds this important note: The watch is not to be used to allow children to undertake activities that are not recommended for their age.  In other words, if a parent does not allow a child to walk home from school alone, then this watch is not meant as a substitute for supervision.

The Audiovox wireless back-up camera system lets you see clearly what is behind you when backing-up your vehicle.

·
The Audiovox collision avoidance technology can help prevent needless tragedies that have an impact on families in your area as fifty children are injured and at least two are killed every week in the U.S due to vehicle blind zones or the area you can’t see behind your car when backing up. The camera’s power is supplied by the vehicle's back-up lights and transmits the signal wirelessly to the 4.5-inch monitor inside the vehicle.  The camera lens is weather resistant -- so it’ll work in rain or snow -- and provides 130 degree viewing angle so you can see more of what is behind you when backing up your vehicle. It mounts in the license plate holder, making it nearly invisible to help reduce the risk of theft and includes anti-theft screws. And Audiovox says that this is the only system that offers a clever behind the license plate camera placement for a nearly invisible installation that anyone can do. Price under $250.00.
