Keep Kids Safe & Foster Independence: Spacetalk’s Adventurer 2 Smartwatch Is The Best First Phone for Kids

What if we told you there’s a way to keep tabs on your kiddos without handing them a full-fledged smartphone? 

Meet the Spacetalk Adventurer 2 Smartwatch – a tech-savvy sidekick that lets kids explore and stay safe, all while keeping you in the loop.

The Spacetalk Adventurer 2 is Spacetalk’s newest 4G mobile phone, GPS and 5MP camera in one wearable smartwatch, perfect for kids aged 5-12. 

Spacetalk watches have video calling, talk and text, GPS location tracking, school mode, emergency SOS, tough Gorilla glass…and much more.

Baby 2.0 (10 years old) wears his Spacetalk watch every day, as he is travelling independently to and from school and to after-school activities.

We chose a Spacetalk watch because he needs a way to get in touch with us, but does not need a smartphone yet. 

With a huge range of safety features, an approved Safe Contacts list and no access to open internet or social media, the Spacetalk Adventurer 2 is the safer way for parents and kids to keep in touch, without any of the dangers and distractions of a regular phone.

Spacetalk Adventurer 2 Features

The Spacetalk Watch Adventurer 2 puts parents in control by letting you manage everything on your child’s device through the Spacetalk app on your own phone. 

The app lets you approve Safe Contacts, enable School Mode for distraction-free learning, set up geofenced Safe Zones, and view your child’s location with Location on Demand. 

Let’s dive into some of the Spacetalk Adventurer 2’s features.

1. Location tracking

Remember that pit in your stomach when you turned around at the grocery store and your kid wasn’t where they were supposed to be? Yeah, that’s a universal parental panic. But here’s where the Spacetalk Adventurer 2 steps in, with its advanced GPS tracking. 

With this smartwatch, you’re armed with real-time location updates.

2. Safe Zones

Picture this: your kid’s playground or school becomes a safety bubble, and you get a ping if they venture out. 

But the smartwatch isn’t just about containment. It’s about trust and freedom. One parent shared how their child, who usually stayed close, suddenly found the confidence to explore within the safe zone’s boundaries.

3. Time Management for Kids

The Spacetalk Adventurer 2 lets you set up reminders and alarms for kids to complete homework or do chores, teaching them time management and responsibility.

Imagine this scenario: dinner’s done, and it’s time for their homework. You set a timer on their watch – a visual reminder of work time ticking down. As the watch’s screen lights up, they know it’s time to focus. Now, it’s not just you commanding; it’s the watch, a friendly ally nudging them towards responsibility.

When their watch buzzes to signal task completion, the Awards feature is like a virtual high-five. 

Whether they scored well on a test or helped with the dishes without being asked, Awards lets you encourage good behaviour through positive reinforcement.

4. Controlled Communication & Freedom for Kids

A Spacetalk Adventurer 2 watch gives parents the confidence to let their kids develop more independence,  knowing they can always call or message mum or dad if they need to. No social media distractions, no unwelcome contacts – just a controlled environment for communication.

Kids can enjoy more freedoms like walking the dog, going to the park, riding their bike, hanging out with friends, catching the bus or walking to school independently.
Spacetalk Adventurer 2 also comes with an SOS Alert feature. If your child presses the  SOS button on the side of the watch, it will automatically call you with their GPS location so you can navigate to them quickly- now that’s reassuring!

Spacetalk Adventurer 2 Is Your Parenting Co-pilot

From keeping kids in contact safely to supporting their development, Spacetalk Adventurer 2 is the perfect first phone for kids who are still too young for a smartphone. 

With the Spacetalk Adventurer 2 Smartwatch, you’re not just keeping your kids safe; you’re fostering their independence, and that’s a remarkable feat.
