Get into the groove

You don't have to be a gadget hound to like JBL's sleek Spyro speakers. They plug into iPods and computers, have one-touch volume control, and add a burst of color to any countertop. (About $130; harmanaudio.com)

"I'm amazed such powerful, clear sound could come from such small speakers! I use them every day to dance with my kids."

-- Darlene Plochocki, mom of
Miles and Elliot, 13 months, Phoenix
