Review on ๐ŸŒŸ Garmin Vivofit Jr. 2 - Flexible Adjustable Kids Activity Tracker + 1 Year Extended Warranty (BB-8) by Melissa Walker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Intuitive tracker for kids

This watch has many features that make it ideal for children. My 8 year old was already very active but the built in play aspect of this watch got him hooked. There are also plenty of extras, including chores and rewards, which I wasn't sure we'd use, but were a hit. Parents can also set alarms and reminders throughout the day (e.g. for homework) and children collect coins for pre-determined tasks. There's also an accompanying PC game that converts activity levels into playtime and rewards. I like that the watch doesn't need to be charged. Sleep tracking also helped my son learn how to time his sleep and wake times. The watch interface is intuitive and requires minimal parental assistance. In terms of accuracy, the watch seems stable between days, but it also seems to overestimate total steps per day.

Pros
  • GPS, locators and accessories
Cons
  • I can't remember but there was something
