Together, the pair created a [KidFit fitness tracker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garmin-bounce-2) to inspire children ranging from 5 to 13 years old to get their sweat on. The KidFit activity tracker is designed to look like a [waterproof watch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forerunner-570) that kids can easily put on before enjoying some sort of physical activity. The [wristbands are 'slappable'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bitplay-fidlock-watch-band) and self-adjusting to any child's wrist size. They come in a wide variety of chromatic colors from hot pink to bright blue. Parents can use their smartphones to set a goal for their child's fitness and check in to see how their child is keeping up. The KitFit wristband tracks the child's progress and displays it on a 'Results Cards' page. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 28% | Activity: 71% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Kid Fitness Tracking:** There are opportunities to create more robust and specialized fitness trackers designed specifically for children to encourage them to develop healthy habits from an early age. - **Gamification of Fitness:** Using game-like experiences to make fitness more fun and engaging for children could create an opportunity to disrupt traditional methods of promoting physical activity for kids. - **Simplified Wearables for Kids:** Creating wearable technology that is self-adjusting and easy to use could be a major selling point for parents who want to encourage their children to be more active. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fitness:** There is an opportunity for fitness companies to develop more kid-friendly programs and equipment that cater to the unique needs and preferences of children. - **Wearable Technology:** Developing wearable devices that are specifically designed for kids could be a lucrative market, as parents become more interested in tracking their children's health and fitness. - **Mobile App Development:** Opportunities to develop mobile apps that gamify fitness and make it more engaging for children could lead to new revenue streams for app developers and tech companies. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Child-Friendly Fitness Trackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fitbit-ace-lte.md) - [Gamified Fitness Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bandai-vital-hero.md) - [Kid-Friendly Sport Smartwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weariq-kids-smartwatch.md) - [Customizable Child Smartwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/x6play-smartwatch.md) - [Toddler Health-Tracking Wearables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/littlebird.md) - [Cellular Child-Targeted Smartwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xplora-xgo3.md) - [Child-Friendly Safety Smartwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gizmo-watch-3-adventure.md) - [Toddler-Targeted Smartwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/training-watch.md) - [Health-Tracking Swimmer Bracelets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soswim-safety-bracelet.md)
