For 'smart' parents, the best part is you can adjust Rollies to fit almost any size sports shoe or trainers, so they will last as long as required (unlike trainers with built in wheels which children tend to grow out of in no time!)

The Strollometer - speedometer and trip computer for a baby stroller

For the new mom's trying to get back into shape: Strollometer

Accepting pre-orders for mid-September delivery.  Cost $45.95 USD

Our inspiration for The Strollometer® came about one month after I gave birth to our third child, Deena. I would often take my daughter on strolls in an attempt to squeeze in a good workout while she napped. Unfortunately, I never knew how far I went, how fast I strolled, or whether my "workout" would ever measure up to the workouts I was familiar with at my gym. Nothing designed for bikers or walkers gave me the information, accuracy or ease I wanted.

The idea for The Strollometer® was born. And by designing it from the ground up, we made sure it could easily strap-on to any stroller- whether it's traditional, all-terrain or jogging.

For when you baby out grows the stroller.

Stroller: $129.99
Strollometer: $45.95

Freaking out the neightbors by walking a stroller without a baby? Priceless.

Inline Skate Speedometer Watch

Hammacher Schlemmer has the first electronic inline skating speedometer that uses wireless transmission between the wheel and a wristwatch-type receiver to accurately register and display your speed and distance as you exercise, cross-train, or just leisurely skate through the park. The electronic speedomoter wheel replaces one of your skate's existing wheels to measure your distance in miles or kilometers and MPH while continually sending the data to the watch. A universal adapter kit is included to ensure proper fit on any skate. The receiver keeps track of the current time in addition to the time since you started; it includes a start/stop timer option, as well as a pause setting for occasional rest breaks.

At $139.95, the Inline Skate Speedometer could make the daily trek around the neighborhood a little more interesting. Source product page and gizmodo
