Fitbit Ace 2
Fitbit Ace 2, $129.
Fitness tracking is not just for ‘sporty kids’. My 9yo daughter isn’t a huge fitness fan, but she does love science, so the idea of tracking her steps and how that impacts her health has been hugely appealing for her.
This waterproof wristband fits snugly on kids and tracks their steps. It also comes with a handy timer and stopwatch.
Kids see stats, goal celebrations and parent-approved friends safely.

Unlike most media streaming devices, Birde allows children the independence to pick what they want to listen to or watch but protects them from harmful content and doesn’t allow access to the internet.

Children simply tap the Birde Seed on the icon of the Birde console. Audio plays through the speaker and video will play through any connected device such as Smart TV*.
