My daughter is in grade 2 this year and is just starting to learn how to read time. She’s curious about the concept but doesn’t quite get it yet.
This was one of the reasons why I was so looking forward to testing out the new Vtech Kidizoom watch.
The Vtech Kidizoom is not just your typical watch. Of course it has a watch function (choose from either analog or digital with lots of fun backgrounds) but it also has a built in camera so you can take pictures and videos with it. It also comes equipped with 4 learning games and has the option to add more.
{Camera Fun}
The Vtech Kidizoom watch isn’t all about reading time though. This smart watch has a camera with photo effects, a video recorder and a voice recorder. The touch screen is easy to use and fun for kids. My daughter has had a blast taking videos and has gone all around the house many times taking pictures.
You can download photos and videos from your watch with the USB cable provided.
{Game Time}
The Kidizoom comes equipped with 4 learning games and can connect to the Learning Lodge to download more games. My daughter has had so much fun with the games. She especially loves the puzzle game because it uses some of the pictures she has taken with her watch. The games included provide hours of fun and age appropriate.
Why I like the Kidizoom watch:
- It has both digital and analog watch displays
- It has many different fun and colourful faces
- The camera takes great pictures
- The wrist band is comfortable and the watch is durable
- It makes learning to read time fun
- Extra games can easily be added through the Learning Lodge
- It’s rechargeable and splash and sweat proof
My daughter loves her Kidizoom watch. She is proud when she wears it and loves telling us what time it is when we ask her.
As a school teacher I wish I had a watch like this for every child in my class. It would really help them learn how to read time.
The Kidizoom watch is available in 3 colours and retails for $59.99. You can purchase a Vtech Kidizoom watch at stores across Canada including at Walmart, Toys R Us and Target.
To learn more about the Kidizoom watch check out the Vtech website. You can also follow Vtech on Facebook and Twitter for more information about their products.
I’d love to know: what feature of the Kidizoom watch do you think your child would like the most?
I think my littles would just love this watch in general! Sounds like something they may receive in their stocking a this year!
My kids LOVE taking silly selfies so I know the camera would be a huge hit!!
oh my son actually has asked for a watch a couple of times lately, we’ll probably get him one for Christmas. this looks like a fun option!
I really like the camera function on this watch. My son would LOVE that. He is constantly stealing our iPhones to take photos of non sense, so if this means that I can finally stop clearing 100 pics a day from my iCloud – I’m sold.
Wow that is SO cool, my daughters would love it! Definitely keeping this in mind when out shopping for Christmas. I think they would love the camera feature they love taking pictures.
I think the kidizoom would make a GREAT christmas present Aimee!!
WE have one of these and love it! DD3 uses it all the time!! She loves that it looks like her grandfathers smart watch! She likes being able to take pics where ever she goes!
Keeping this in mind for xmas 🙂
Smart Laurie, the kidizoom would be a great Christmas gift!
