Tracking Devices for Your Kids

Don't lose your kids when you go to public places, these devices will keep you from panicking if they get separated from you.

Don't worry about losing your kids when you go to public places—we’ve rounded up three great lost-kid trackers that will help stave off panic the next time you get separated in a crowd.

Watch Me!

Designed for children five to 11 years old who aren’t quite ready for their own cellphone, this is a GPS tracker and colorful just-for-them watch in one. Parents can program in five emergency numbers, track kids’ whereabouts from an app on their smartphones and set up “safe zones” to get texts when their little monkeys wander away. Filip Wearable Phone and Locator for Kids, $149.99. myfilip.com

Tattoo You

Just like the tats you play with at home, but with one big difference: These allow you to write in an emergency contact number and any other important info (like “allergic to peanuts” or “autistic”) a stranger might need if your kid can’t find you in a throng. SafetyTat, $20.99. safetytat.com 

Pocket Protector    

This smart GPS fits neatly in her pocket and shows you a detailed map of where she is on your phone or browser. You can even get a text if she goes too close to a registered pedophile’s house. Plus, there’s a panic button feature in case she needs to reach you ASAP. Amber Alert GPS Smart Locator, $145. amberalertgps.com
