My children enjoy the VTech Kidizoom Smartwatch DX that totally welcomes our children into the digital age. This fully functional, multipurpose watch keeps children entertained, while teaching them how to read time and understand the concept in a fun way.

Children will enjoy choosing their favourite watch faces from among 50 different analog and digital themed faces such as characters and designs to roman numerals with the swipe of their finger. There are utility apps such as a calculator, calendar, timer, and a stop watch. These basic apps can introduce children to understand other time functions.
