Gauri Nanda, who is well known for her rolling alarm clock called Clocky has teamed up with her friend Audry Hill to build a new product called Toymail. It’s a fun way for people (parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, etc) to stay in contact with kids. The cute toy mailbox contains electronics which allows it to send messages back an forth to a smartphone app. If you hurry you can still get in on the Kickstarter.
“Our Mailmenâ„¢ have WIFI built in. Setting up your toy so that it can send and receive Toymail is as easy as downloading the Toymail app onto your phone. All software updates are wirelessly transmitted to your Mailmen.
