This swim-friendly device includes one year of battery life meaning there’s no need to take it off for visits to the pool or to recharge. The battery is easily replaceable by a parent and the design is highly durable thanks to the plastic casing, and there are various options for customising the display.
The app tracks steps, estimated distance, and there’s a toe-to-toe challenge meaning kids can challenge each other to have friendly step competitions. If kids achieve their active minutes goals, they can unlock features on the watch and in-app, such as new icons and games.
There’s also a handy in case of emergency widget that enables an adult to access the child’s emergency contact information. Meanwhile, there’s also a great approach to chores, with parents able to assign tasks, schedule alerts and alarms and more. These features are enabled via the Garmin Jr app that sits on parents’ phones.
