(Less) manic Mondays

Curb your inner Garfield with some custom creativity.

We’ll spare you the cliché about how awful Mondays are, but only to cut to the chase about this cool approach that makes those morning less sucky.

Dreamt up by Ideo NY designers for radio program Studio 360’s Redesigns series, among the ideas are the Lolzzz alarm clock, which wakes you up to the sound of a child laughing, rocks back and forth, and laughs harder when you tickle it. Based on the idea that it’s among the world’s most joyful sounds, the idea is to foster some smiles in the hope of a better Monday. Each Monday, there’s a new laugh to look forward to, plus you can read about the story behind the chuckle on your commute to work.

Aw shucks, it almost makes us wish it were Monday (sort of).
