Experience Wireless Earphones – Re-invented

Ambie corporation, a Sony spin-off joint venture, set its sights on creating “earcuffs” that could transform how users experienced day-to-day life. Design played a vital role in adopting a user-oriented stance and making that vision a reality.

Headphones go over your ears, virtually shutting out ambient noise. When you use earbuds, also, it’s hard to hear anything besides your tunes. Now, imagine getting a personal music experience without actually putting anything over or in your ears. That’s the unprecedented experience at the heart of “ambie sound earcuffs,” which let users add a musical accompaniment to their day-to-day activities—and still hear the people and things around them.

Ambie are wireless earphones that does not block your ears completely.

WHY YOU SHOULD PLAY WITH US THESE HOLIDAYS

* REASON 5 # WE LEARN NEW SKILLS *

Unstructured Play in Nature is the best way for children to develop their physical skills, as it provides them with a variety of opportunities to move their bodies and engage in physical activity.

By engaging in outdoor play regularly, children can build their strength, endurance, balance, coordination, and overall physical well-being.
- Balance and coordination: Nature offers many different surfaces and terrain, such as rocks, logs, and hills, which can challenge children's balance and coordination as they navigate their way through these obstacles.
- Strength and endurance: Climbing trees, hiking through trails, and other outdoor activities can help children build their strength and endurance, which can improve their overall fitness and well-being.
- Gross motor skills: Running, jumping, throwing, and other physical activities that are common in outdoor play can help children develop their gross motor skills, which are essential for movement and physical activity.
- Fine motor skills: Even simple activities like picking up stones, twigs, and leaves can help develop children's fine motor skills, as they use their fingers and hands to manipulate objects and explore their environment.
