This electronic accessory has very little in common with traditional watches. The only similarities are in the display of time and wear on the hand.Unlike a phone, even the most inattentive child will not be able to lose them, as they are securely fixed on his wrist. Due to the abundance of useful functions, smart watches become a real lifesaver for children and their caring parents. When is it good to use them? For example, if a child is forced to get to school unaccompanied by adults and you need to track the route of his movement. Similar situations are independent walks, a trip to the camp.
Smart watches are useful for inattentive children who often lose their phone or fidgets who run far from home.

Why does a child need a smart watch?
Some parents consider modern gadgets for children to be useless excesses. But in fact, they are equipped with many useful options that are needed, first of all, by parents, and not by their children. What can smart watches do?
- By installing a free application on their phone, parents can control the location and movement of the child when he is not around. Thanks to a special sensor, the location of the baby is tracked on the map in real time.
- If the child is very small and walks in the yard unattended, you can designate the territory within which he can be. If he crosses the line, the adult will be notified immediately.
- Smart watches remember everything.If necessary, you can view the route of the child's movement on the map in order to know where and when he was.
- In most children's smart watches, you can insert a SIM card, that is, they partially perform the function of a phone. You can call and send messages directly to the watch. A call to the phone numbers recorded in the contacts is carried out by pressing one of the three buttons.
- Most watches are equipped with an SOS button. If you press it, the device will alternately dial the three numbers stored in the memory.
- Some models have a hidden one-way call function. You can check at any time in which company the child is and what he is doing.
Additional features - sleep quality, pedometer, activity monitoring, alarm clock, flashlight, camera and some others, depending on the model. The range of the watch is unlimited, as they use different communication channels: GSM, GPS, GPRS.

8 Smart Baby Watch D99
Country: China
Average price: 4400 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.1
An interesting model from one of the most famous smartwatch manufacturers that works with the Find My Kids app. The device is fully adapted to the needs of the child and his parents. The GPS monitoring of the location of the child on the online map is well implemented - the accuracy is up to 10 meters. There is an emergency call button for three selected numbers, calls from unknown phones are blocked. A maximum of 10 contacts can be memorized. When a child leaves the boundaries of the permitted territory, an alert is sent to the parent's phone. The watch is available in four colors, looks stylish - suitable for a child of middle school age.
Of the additional features - monitoring of physical activity, sleep, calorie counter, accelerometer. The memory saves the history of movements, there is an alarm clock, a pedometer, the possibility of remote listening. They get into the second half of the TOP for a clearly overpriced watch with an inconvenient menu, a small screen and ordinary functions.
7 GEOZON AQUA
Country: China
Average price: 3400 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.2
The next model that rightfully entered the TOP is the GEOZON AQUA smart watch. They determine coordinates using several technologies (GPS, GLONASS, Wi-Fi), which has a positive effect on geopositioning accuracy. The gadget is designed for active children and is protected from moisture and dust (IP67). The manufacturer promises a decent service life - 36 months.All the necessary features of a smart watch have been implemented: through their smartphone, parents can remotely carry out audio and photo monitoring, send and receive voice messages, check the history of movements, monitor sports performance, etc.
According to reviews, the watch phone does an excellent job with the declared functions. It holds a charge during active use for at least 48 hours - there are no games in it, and therefore the battery is not discharged quickly. The camera, surprisingly, gives quite distinct pictures, however, when waving their hands, they still turn out to be blurry. Users are also pleased with the fact that there is no need to subscribe and pay for the proprietary Guard application, full functionality is available immediately after purchase. The watch lacks only a hand-held sensor and a slightly louder speaker. And, of course, I would like them to be inexpensive.
6 Life Button Aimoto Marvel Spiderman
Country: Russia (manufacturing country China)
Average price: 3000 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.4
A smart watch for those whose child no longer quotes fixies, but begins to decorate the room with posters with Marvel heroes. For Spider-Man, of course, you have to pay a little more than for many other models, but Aimoto's license from Marvel was not cheap either. In the proprietary Knopka911 application, you can set the boundaries of a safe location, set trusted numbers for the SOS button, track the history of movements and determine the location of the child thanks to the GPS sensors built into the gadget. The application is intuitively very simple, and works under Android and IOS.
Of the additional functions of the watch: the presence of a flashlight, an alarm clock, a pedometer and a fun game "Learning to count", which children will appreciate. Of the minuses of the model - the lack of normal moisture protection, a small capacity battery (400 mAh), a SIM card only works in 2g networks, a very mediocre camera of 0.3 megapixels and rather large sizes, which makes Aimoto look bulky on the hand of a child. Interesting smart watch, but not the best yet.
5 Elari FixiTime Fun
Country: China
Average price: 3000 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.4
This smart watch will impress any young fan of famous cartoon characters. And it's not just their image on the strap - in the updated version, each menu item and function has its own fix. Parents will also like the convenient proprietary SafeFamily utility, which runs on Android and IOS operating systems, providing control functions, calls and route monitoring. The application has an item with a schedule where you can plan tasks for the child, developing responsibility and independence in him.
Nano-sim works only in 2g networks, GLONASS and GPS sensors provide fairly accurate monitoring of the location of the child, and the IP67 protection level will save fixies even from heavy rain. It is possible to mark the boundaries of the permitted geolocation, the SOS button, turn off receiving calls from unknown numbers, voice chat and "wiretapping". Among the shortcomings, it is worth noting the average battery - 450 mAh, which is enough for a maximum of two days of the gadget's operation. The camera also lacks stars from the sky, but for video calls and monitoring the environment, its 0.1 megapixels is enough.
4 Ginzzu GZ-503

Rating (2022): 4.5

3 Smart Baby Watch LT25 4G
Country: China
Average price: 4600 rub.
Rating (2022): 4.6
Attractive watch with large touch screen and comfortable silicone strap. Smart Baby Watch is perhaps the widest line of children's smart watches, which can be easily confused because the manufacturer rarely withdraws old models from sale. LT25 4G is one of the latest "baby watches" and, in addition to the already familiar functions, they are distinguished by the presence of a sensor for measuring body temperature. A very important function in the current epidemiological situation. Measurements are assumed either in manual mode from the application, or in a configured automatic mode. When the temperature rises to 37 ° C, a notification is sent from the gadget.
Thanks to 4G support and a high-quality microphone and speaker, this smart watch offers excellent communication quality and will please you with comfortable communication or “wiretapping” if you need to monitor the situation around the child. And for especially caring parents - there is an SOS button, built-in gps and the ability to configure a safe zone in the program with a notification about violation of its boundaries.
2 HUAWEI Watch Kids 4 Pro
Country: China
Average price: Average price: 10,000 rubles.
Rating (2022): 4.8
The only real downside to this watch is the price. This means that those hyper-responsible children who have already remembered that “parents don’t print money” will become their owners. The strap is designed for a wrist no longer than 120 mm, so kindergarteners can still sigh sadly, but younger students will rejoice. Quality, as always, is at the level, it’s not for nothing that Huawei is in the top five manufacturers of wearable electronics: confirmed quality certificates, an official guarantee, excellent assembly and the best manufacturing materials. In this, the “kids” are not inferior to their older brothers.
System requirements for installing the HUAWEI FamCare utility: iOS 9.0, Android 6.0 and above, and, of course, HarmonyOS. In the program, you can set the border of the safe zone, upon crossing which you will immediately receive a notification. All major working networks are supported: GSM / GPRS / EDGE, LTE, CDMA, and a nice bonus is fast charging, an AMOLED screen and water resistance of as much as 5 ATM (finally). Of the unusual - there is an ultraviolet sensor. Well, and, of course, the disturbing SOS button, when pressed, an automatic photo is attached to the sent notification. By the way, judging by the reviews, the HD camera is very decent for a smartwatch.
