    Children’s toys, from generation to generation have no doubt changed. I’ve seen the sock monkeys, rubber-band guns, and blinking baby dolls pulled from dusty boxes in the attic which at one point in the ancient past had been the favorite toys of my parents when they were kids. Somewhere stashed away in my own attic lays my Fisher-Price Music Box Record Player, my Barbies, and my brother’s G.I. Joes. Now, in a time when popular toys from my childhood are being auctioned off on eBay with price tags in the thousands, I’m saddened by the realization: my young children rarely play with toys at all. Despite the mountains of toys…

    A major weakness of this project is that although an adult can control the pill organizer, parental supervision is necessary at all times with this product to ensure the doses are actually consumed. Children under the age of 10 should be supervised to ensure accuracy of each dose of medications. Parents who are hoping to purchase this product must have a smart phone because these pillboxes contain technology allowing for parents to give their child a specific dose of their medication via the use of a smart phone. We only have select themes for the pillboxes, therefore, we are limited in what we can provide to the patient and to age groups the themes may appeal to. Our budget is great enough to fulfill all the advertising needs and product manufacturing.…
