Most modern parents are skeptical of providing their child with a smartphone as the devices are both expensive and easy to break, which is why Kidibuzz's smartphone for kids is serving as such a valuable alternative.
These phones are actual Android devices that have been locked to limit the amount of content a child can access while enclosed in tough, nearly break-proof packaging. The device is aimed at three to seven year olds and features a touch screen, a camera and photo app and a series of educational and entertaining games and apps.
The Kidibuzz phone offers parents peace of mind knowing their child is a just a phone call away, while presenting kids with more autonomy.
