Saw this Crying Baby Monitor and Analyzer on a Christmas gadget gift website. Goofy or fun, you decide.   
                           
“It’s okay, the baby is only crying out of boredom.” If you can believe this interesting gadget that claims to be able to differentiate between a baby in distress and an angry baby then this might be a well spent $99 ($75 on Amazon) for any new parent. 

The Why Cry Baby Analyzer baby monitor uses frequency analysis technology to tell if your baby is stressed, sleepy, annoyed, bored or hungry. Who needs a wise old grandparent to teach you about child rearing when you have gadgets like this?
