 Sony AccuCORE DVD keeps photo and video safe : Sony DVDs with AccuCORE technology help moms keep all the family's important moments captured on home videos and in still images safe and secure, with the confidence that they'll be preserved for years to come. According to a recent study conducted on behalf of Sony Electronics by The Parenting Group's Mom Connection network, keeping family pictures and videos safe is a crucial concern to moms. Asked what's the one thing that they would grab before heading out the door if they had to leave the house and all other belongings behind, a whopping 76 percent of the moms surveyed said they would take family photos and videos ahead of purses, jewelry and other valuables, even heirlooms.

In fact, 70 percent of those surveyed said they were likely to invest time to learn about a new technology that would help safeguard against the loss of family photos and videos.

However, coming up with creative ideas and themes for parties every year can be a daunting task. Three-quarters of moms surveyed are eager for new activities and giveaways to make their children's birthday parties unique.
Family celebrations - New ways to use digital technology
Send the grandparents a birthday video. Why send just a card when you can send a video? Capture the kids in their rooms or at play, to show how they're doing. Show yourself and your spouse around the house. Then assemble everyone for a birthday greeting the folks will never forget! Put on a play. To liven up a birthday, record your children and guests acting out a scene from their favorite fairytale, book, movie or TV show. Then make a bucket of popcorn and gather around the television to watch their performance! Make a music video. For another birthday party activity, let the kids pick out a favorite song, put it on the music system and give them room to rock out! They'll be the stars of their own music video, and everyone can take home a copy. Launch a video scavenger hunt. For hours of adventure, challenge and fun, give the kids a list of events, places and actions to record on video. Have kids take turns being the videographer, while they search the house to find each item on the list.
