Kids GPS Watch

With more news about kidnapping, murderers and generally bad people around, parents nowadays are under tremendous pressure and dilemma of letting their kids go out alone in the street without their supervision. Here you are a pretty effective device to reduce worries from parents, Kids GPS watch. Is there really a need to tag a child with a GPS watch? It’s all depends on the safety level of your area.
Besides from the obvious tracking function, there are a few interesting features that you can make use of it that helps to keep your child safe.





First is the ability to set up ‘safe zones’ which serve as a boundary. Let’s say your child crosses the ‘safe zones’ you have pre set, you will be notified immediately via email. You can then see where specifically this was via Google Maps. You are also able to edit the ‘safe zone’ by time and date, this allowing you to cater for regular outings without having to change anything.

Second, it’s also possible to find out where your child is by simply texting ‘wru’ or ‘where r u’ to the Loc8u portal and you will then receive a Google Map and/or an address which will help you track down your child.
This fully waterproof GPS tracking device is also capable of lasting 2-3 days on a single charge.

I believe there are parents who are willing to pay £149.99 for the GPS watch plus the monthly fee as long as their child safety is under their monitoring or within their eyesight.

The monthly fees here referring to the emergency tariff ranges from £4.99 to £19.99, depending on how many text alerts you are allowed. If you want it to work overseas, the monthly fees will be higher.
Looks like a pretty effective device, agree?
