Competition and Review: The Me Finder

By 157 Comments

A busy shopping centre, an amusement park or a hectic train station can all be part of your much loved family trips but they are also crowded places that make it easy for your little one to get distracted and lost. To make sure that your day out doesn’t end in a scary hide and seek game, Claire Barnder from Show & Tell Ltd. has developed a digital security wristband for children.

The Me Finder allows you to store up to 5 phone numbers that can easily be saved and accessed by pressing just a couple of buttons. Before you leave the house, make sure that the monitor displays the number of the person that is with your child. You can then teach your child to “Show & Tell”: This simply means that they show their wristband to a safe adult and tell them to phone you while they wait for you to pick them up. The Me Finder comes in three funky and colourful designs and is super-lightweight. Its straps are made form very soft plastic so the Me Finder is comfortable to wear. Furthermore, there is a child-proof safety catch on the wristband to make sure that it doesn’t get lost while playing. But that’s not the only thing Claire thought of when developing the Me Finder: The wirstband is also water-resistant so that it is ideal for the beach or pool and most importantly, your child can’t change the settings by playing with random buttons. Instead, they will be rewarded with some simple animations before the screen automatically defaults back to the phone number. Sounds too easy? Well, it gets better: If you don’t belong to the group of tech-savvy parents you can even get your numbers pre-programmed. Simple fill in a form when ordering the wristband online and it will come ready to use.

The Me Finder costs £14.99, is available in pink, green and brown and can be ordered online from Show & Tell Ltd.
I have a whopping ten Me Finders to give away to ten lucky readers.

    Really great idea, think I should get one of these for my son. I lost him once is Toys R Us once, one of the most frightening experience ever.Following your blog and retweeted [email protected]

    What a really fun idea. It is not a nice feeling when you realise your child has gone walk abouts. I remember as a child when on holiday, my sister went suddenly missing. I remember the look and panic on my mums face. She had gone to a fairground roundabout. Children will love the bright colours of these and they are fun. Also good that they are water resistant as the beach is a place where children tend to wander off
