I'm not sure an activity tracker for a kid this age makes
sense but it is darn cute. I guess with
the parents obsessing about fitness or hopefully so, it isn't a stretch to
think a kid would enjoy emulating the parent.
The screen is very clear, the sound could be a touch louder but that may
be old ears vs. young ears that haven't been corrupted by 50 years of
Rock. The activities are good and seem
very appealing to an age appropriate kid.
The fact that it can be set for the time when the kid is in school so
that the little voice doesn't come popping out during class is a necessary
feature. I think it will provide
enjoyment and fun. My experience with this
age is that physical activity is hardly an issue but I guess with the epidemic
of obesity there will be concerned parents who see this as a requisite. Since it doubles as a watch, I think it will have both utilitarian aspects
and fun ones from the activities. I will
report back here if that doesn't hold true after the serious test by my in
house 5 year old.
To set this up, you will need to connect to an Internet
connected computer with an available USB port.
