Children-Tracking Smartwatches

This Smartwatch for Children Keeps the Modern Family Connected

— January 10, 2016 — Life-Stages
The 'dokiWatch' is a smartwatch for children that works as a child-tracking device.

Launched on Kickstarter, this new smartwatch for children has already gained major popularity. Like the Apple Watch, this intelligent accessory allows kids to make video calls and it features a GPS locator, a fitness tracker and even includes a digital friend called the dokiPet. The GPS tracking feature alerts parents of their child's whereabouts right on their smartphone. This watch has been dubbed the world's most advanced smartwatch for kids 6 to 12 years and is also the first ever 3G-enabled smartwatch for children with video calling and messaging capabilities.

While not all parents are ready to gift their children with smartphones, the dokiWatch allows children to have an active childhood while parents can enjoy the security of knowing that they're safe.
