Picnic Blanket with Speakers
There’s nothing like laying down a blanket and eating a good meal in the ground outdoors while blasting a little picnic music to set the mood. But you forgot your boombox. No worries because you have the Speaker Picnic Blanket, the blanket with the built-in speakers. Just set it and forget it.
Probably works well for the beach too. Uses a headphone jack to connect to any phone or iPod (which you put in the clear slot between the speakers). Runs on AA batteries. It’s surprising that nobody’s thought of this combination before, seems like a natural match. This speaker blanket comes out in mid-March and costs about $50, just in time for picnic season.
