Wireless Multi-Room Speakers

Whether they love The Weeknd, Billie Eilish, or a band you’ve never heard of, the kids can enjoy their favorite tunes over a quality wireless speaker like a model by Sonos or Bluesound. They’ll select songs and playlists right from a tablet or phone, making it easy to start a dance party or study session.

If you’d like, you can connect their new speakers to the rest of your home’s audio system. The entire house can listen to the same songs, or they can choose their own music. When the new Sonos or Bluesound speaker is incorporated into your existing network, you can access the speakers from your device, too. That means if the volume gets too loud in the kids’ rooms, you can turn it down yourself.  

Roku Ultra

No matter if they watch Disney shows or action movies, kids have always loved TV, and they’ll love you for the Roku Ultra media player. Roku Ultra provides ultra-fast channel launches of live TV, sports, and music, with access to streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, and Prime Video. It’s all consolidated into one system, making it easy to find a show or movie.

It’s Apple-compatible, too, letting your kids cast videos from their Apple iPhones or computers over AirPlay. They can watch TikTok videos on the big screen, then switch to Stranger Things in seconds.  

Roku Ultra also includes a lost remote finder—something we’ve all needed before.

Surround Sound for Gaming

If your teen spends nights playing Xbox with friends, why not treat them to an upgraded sound system? Surround sound will add booming bass and lifelike audio that will bring them right into the worlds of their favorite games. For an authentic surround sound experience, you’ll need at least a front left, front right, and center channel speaker. Add a subwoofer for bass notes and rear speakers for total immersion.

RGB Smart Lighting Kits

Have you ever screwed in colorful lightbulbs for holidays or parties to create a fun atmosphere? Smart lighting systems like Lutron let you wirelessly control LED’s color and brightness right from a phone app. Your kids will love playing with the lights in their room, changing the bulbs to pinks, blues, greens—whatever they desire! Plus, you can schedule the lights to regularly mimic the sun’s natural patterns, so they’ll help your child sleep better at night and stay energized during the daytime only.
