Keeping a toddler or young child occupied is a full-time job. Being able to keep a child occupied while going out to dinner or on vacation is priceless. The portable DVD player is popular in keeping toddlers busy while at dinner. You can queue up Dora the Explorer or Diego for an hour-long movie. However, the DVD player, although portable, requires an extra bag to transport along and the battery often shortens over time. The iPhone has now replaced the portable DVD player and is now the gadget to get for the little ones.
