Chicago – Today VTech announced the availability of My First Kidi™ Smartwatch, an engaging puppy companion just for preschoolers that offers an important starting point for learning to tell time and practicing daily routines. This smartwatch joins VTech’s popular line of innovative children’s electronics that inspire interactive play through technology.
“My First Kidi Smartwatch is the perfect first smartwatch for kids!” said Andy Keimach, President, VTech Electronics North America. “Kids can learn to tell time and structure their day with routine reminders while also having fun with age-appropriate activities like games and a digital pet.”
My First Kidi Smartwatch helps little ones care for themselves and learn about time-telling with a friendly woof-woof in a wrist pet they’ll love to care for. Get extra help with potty training by setting 30-, 60- or 90-minute reminders. Keep little smiles healthy with the Brush Your Teeth reminder or get them to sleep on time with a chime that tells them when to get ready for bed. Kids will love taking this digital doggie on all their adventures while learning a little responsibility along the way. Give the pup a name and care for them right on screen. This super-talented pup can even be taught to do 20 tricks and will celebrate with barks and confetti. Explore the Time Master app and choose from 20 digital and analog clock faces. Connect watch-to-watch with a friend who also has a My First Kidi Smartwatch (sold separately) for more games and activities. It is available in blue and purple.
My First Kidi Smartwatch, recommended for ages 3-5 years, retails for US$44.99 and is available now at retailers nationwide. For more information, visit www.vtechkids.com.
