⁣
@palm is helping parents like me give their child their first smart phone this holiday season. We love the @palm device because of its small screen size (designed to keep kids from being consumed by a large screen they already have enough of in their daily lives) and well thought out design  with gorilla glass and IP68 water and dust resistance for those inevitable drops and spills. Another great feature is the extensive parental controls to monitor what your child is doing. ⁣

To help PALM spread some holiday cheer we have teamed up to give one of you a PALM device! ⁣
The perfect present just in time for Christmas! ⁣
