Moms are among the most connected demographics in social: more than 54% own smartphones, 75% use Facebook; and 5 million visit Pinterest daily. Their purchasing decisions affect entire households and spill over to their super-social friends.

So how do you attract this connected, influential audience?

Net Nanny. This software app lets parents decide how their kids use the 'net and is designed to protect them from adult-themed sites, cyberbullying, stalking, and profanity. Adults can impose time limits and vary rules based on kids' ages. It isn't just parents using it; schools and businesses are, too.

Picksie. This free location-based discovery app, available on iPhone and Android, lets parents find family-friendly things to do in the months when kids are on vacation. It also includes museum schedules, easy ticketing, and thousands of on-app menus and restaurant reviews. Best of all, it gets smarter with use, and automatically filters out things people likely won't want to do—like certain outdoor activities in winter.
