The first noticeable change on the Garmin Vivofit Jr. 2 that was not available in the first version is its cartoon-themed bands. This kids’ activity tracker now comes in several themes inspired by Disney, Star Wars, and Marvel movies. Let them choose the design they like best to make it more exciting for them – that is, if you are not planning on a surprise.

Also, the bands now come in stretchy and adjustable forms. The stretchy bands fit wrists up to 147mm around. If you need a larger size, you can choose an adjustable band. Designs vary for either band forms.

Another physical feature that changed in the second Garmin Vivofit for kids is its display. It now has a color screen that can be customized. Users will also be pleased to know that this upgrade does not affect the battery life. It will still last for up to more than a year.

Just like its predecessor, the Garmin Vivofit Jr. 2 also syncs with the app. When kids reach their 60-minute activity goals, the app rewards them with a step in the Adventure Trail. This time around, the game matches the design of the band. Watch your child play the Star Wars, Disney, or Marvel game every day.

Best Buy is knocking $70 off this 50-inch 4K TV
Insignia F30 TV on a TV stand in a living room.

If you're on a tighter budget and want to grab yourself a nice big TV, then you'll be happy to know that Best Buy is running a special deal on its Insignia TVs that will let you grab a 50-inch one for pretty cheap. While you could go for some of the best TVs on the market, they often cost thousands of dollars and will likely have features you aren't likely to use. On the other hand, this 50-inch Insignia TV deal is going to cost you only $230 at Best Buy instead of the usual $300, so you get yourself a rather massive 4K TV for a very solid price.

Why you should buy the Insignia 50-inch F30 Series 4K TV
While this 50-inch Insignia F30 Series may be on the more budget-oriented side, that doesn't mean it's missing some important features, such as HDR10, which provides you with a lot better contrast than a traditional TV. You also get the higher 60Hz refresh rate, where you'd usually find 50Hz on more budget-friendly options, and it does mean that it's perfect for gaming on a PS5 or Xbox Series X or Series S since most games on those consoles tend to be locked at 4K at 60Hz anyway.

Either way, we've gone out and collected some of our favorite humidifier deals for you below, although be sure to also check out these air purifier deals and air conditioner deals as well.
Rosekm Humidifier for Bedroom -- $20, was $33

Another great budget option that's slightly more aesthetically pleasing is the Rosekm Humidifier for bedroom, and is great if you need something for a relatively small area as it can cover 323 square feet. It has a solid 0.53 gallon reservoir and can run for a full 24-hours on the lowest settings, although you're more likely to use it on the higher settings. Output sits at around 200ml/h, so it should help raise the humidity quite quickly in a smaller room, while the 360-degree nozzle lets you aim it to wherever you need the humidity first.
