The Fitbit Ace for kids is now available for $100, matching its lowest price ever.
If you’re looking for a way to keep your kids entertained this spring break, the Fitbit Ace LTE is a fantastic option to get them outside and away from screens. This kid-friendly smartwatch promotes physical activity through engaging, trackable games, and it’s currently available for just $99.95, a sweet $80 discount, ahead of the spring sales. Other retailers are matching this price as well.
Designed for kids aged 7 to 11, the Ace LTE features step-activated games and a digital companion named Eejie. As kids engage in play, they can earn points to purchase fun items like outfits, rooms, and accessories for Eejie. The built-in activities are both simple and enjoyable, including a fishing challenge where kids mimic casting and reeling in fish, and a racing game reminiscent of Mario Kart that uses arm tilting for steering.
Safety and communication are also prioritized with this device. There are no ads or third-party app stores to navigate, and parental controls allow you to manage contacts and adjust settings. You can track your child’s activity goals and even disable games during school hours. Plus, it can serve as a smartphone alternative; the Ace supports Tap to Pay through Google Pay, enabling kids to make purchases independently. For a monthly fee of $9.99, kids can also call or text approved contacts and share their location via Google Maps, all without needing a separate smartphone.
