A wearable device that manages activities for children has been released.
Garmin's first lifelogging band for kids is now available Vivofitr(R) jr. to be released in late April 2017.
Main specifications
- acks number of steps, sleep, and daily exercise goal (60 minutes)
- S / Android app with adventure trail for kids to have fun and learn
- ds earn coins for helping and can redeem them for rewards managed by parents
Adventure Trail is an exploration game that you can play on your phone app when you meet your 60-minute daily exercise goal. You can find interesting creatures on the adventure trail, and the animals you find can be recorded in a family journal. Pokemon style.
Activity is not only exercise, but also daily "helping". Not only does vivofit track children's steps and sleep time, but it also offers a service that allows parents to request quests from their children in the form of help. Parents can earn coins by setting up and completing quests in the app, which can then be exchanged for rewards.
I think a lot of families have created something like "Helping Points" and give an allowance when 10 points are accumulated, or use gamification to make it fun for children to help out. That kind of thing.
The price is about 10,000 yen. You can purchase it from the Amazon link below.
