How would you use a Tochie Personal Voice Aide? There are many ways this little smart device can make life better for you and your family. Once you learn that it will deliver reminders at any time or day you decide, you’ll want more than one in your home and the homes of your loved ones. In fact, this could be the most unique and most used tech gift you give this year. Learn some suggestions for how to get the most from this device below, then post your own creative tips, for a chance to win one.
Benefits of sending Tochie messages from anywhere to anyone
Limitless! That’s how I’d describe the number of ways to use a Tochie. Parents will love it: their kids will too. And of course, it could be a life-saver for seniors on their own. Even with my personal situation, where it’s just my wife and I, the Tochie would be perfect for reminders, contact me when the phone is on mute (which mine almost always is), etc. I know I’d get a lot of use from it … but I want to hear how you would use it. After all, Best Buy contests wouldn’t be very fair if I was eligible to win (given that I will be selecting the winner, haha).
I’ll suggest a scenario from my past life as a parent of young children to illustrate.
Go to bed now … wake up now … turn off your phone now
My children are adults, making the most of any lessons I imparted before they fled the nest. But several years ago, a Tochie in each child’s room would have been so useful. Schedule a message for bedtime (aka, toothbrush time, lights-out time, phones-off time). Schedule a message for mornings too. I have to admit I would have found this the most fun. Each day I’d add another message to play a minute after the previous ones I had recorded. They’d wake up to the same series of messages each morning: some inspirational, some motivational, some absolutely parental, and some just dad-joke comical. They would learn to listen through the repetition until finally they reach the new tasty tidbit of knowledge most recently added to the thread. There is no limit to the number of messages you record so I’d likely adjust the series to begin a little earlier each morning so they would not be late for school. Like I said kids would love it!
