Boys love their watch

Their uncle got this watch for my boys when he came to visit so it was a very special item from the start. So far it has withstood most of the knocks boys put them through. I’ve had to buy 2 new bands within the year but that was due to the boys being rough with them. They are much more careful now. The screen on one is missing the some dots so is hard to read but I guess it was knocked in play as my boys are always flying about so I hope to get that repaired as soon as I can afford it. The companion app is great is easy use. It encourages my boys to remember to do their chores and love how I can customise the reward tho there is only one reward they cash in on (iPad time) They are proud when they achieve their hour of exercise per day and we have lots of moves on the trail to complete but that is due to the fact that I do not always have the time to go through it with them at the end of the day. I like how I can monitor their sleep pattern it is very useful tool.

Effective motivator

Our 6 year old son is very motivated to get his active minutes in so he can play his game! It’s even better now they’ve added the tap game as this recognises and rewards him when he goes above and beyond his 60 minutes of activity. Also the ability to set chore reminders is great. Recommend.

Best birthday present ever

My 9 year old loves this, and is excited to check her steps, activity and sleep. better still it is waterproof meaning she’s not taking it off all of the time and the reward and chores are an extra bonus!! we are glad we paid and little bit more than other basic brands.
