Kajeet Mobile phone for kids

My two youngest boys have been on cloud 9 since their Kajeet phone arrived in the mail. Living in a home with 3 older siblings who in their minds have always had mobile phones, which keeps them constantly asking me when do they get one. I personally saw no need for them to have them at this young age until I was introduced to the Kajeet phone.

First let me say I still don’t think they NEED a mobile phone. However, I am finding out some great benefits to them having one ( they share it). I can now find them as they roam the neighborhood on their bikes or move from yard to yard playing the latest game of capture the flag by calling their Kajeet mobile phone. Caleb is enjoying learning the use of a phone and working on his memorization of mom and dads phone numbers. Yes, we could do this with any phone but there is a motivation factor here for Caleb to work a little harder when its his own Kajeet mobile phone. It has allowed me to give my boys a little more independence at the same time I feel they are just a call away. Did I tell you if they loose there phone there is a GPS phone locate option available on it? which means I can find out where they and their phone are at all times , whether its on them or lost. I think it will be a great MOM techno tool this summer maybe even simplify my life of keeping track of my children.
