My 9 year old daughter received this for Christmas! Has not taken it off!! She is always trying to beat her steps from the previous days! She loves to get her fitness goals. I'm excited she loves it so much!
In modern times, when our young ones seem to be more attracted by sit-down entertainment and games than good old running about, it’s important that we encourage them to get more exercise. The Garmin Vivofit Jr 2 is a fun way to inspire, encourage and motivate kids to get off the couch and on their feet.
The Garmin Vivofit Jr 2 tracks steps, sleep and 60 minutes of daily recommended activity. Kids are motivated to reach their daily goals with the reward of adventures, games and icons based on a host of characters from Spider Man to Mini Mouse.
The robust swim-friendly band, again based on popular characters from Star Wars to Marvel Comics, features a customizable colour screen and a user-replaceable battery that lasts for more than one year without having to be recharged. Kids occasionally get involved in rough and tumble as part of their everyday play and the Jr 2 tracker can handle plenty of that tough stuff.
Homework, practice time, household chores and brushing their teeth are an important part of a child's daily routine. The Vivofit Jr 2 makes it easy to stay on top of all of these things thanks to features like reminder alerts and a task timer.
Mum and Dad can have some say in the process by being able to access chore management and reward tools on the parent-controlled app. This allows parents to endure the Vivofit Jr 2 is being used the way it should and that their kids are sticking to the task of staying active while having fun.

The Vivofit Jr 2 is very, very good, but whether it will persuade your kids to be more active is debatable. The main difficulty you'll have is you'll need an iron will as a parent to get your kids to wear it all the time and to abide by the rules you set up on it.
Packed with features; Effective and easy to use; Lightweight and comfortable
Pricey; In-app "game" is weak
I was looking for an activity tracker since the kids are always bugging me to wear my Fitbit. I was weighing this against another (made by a toy mfr) but we are so happy with the Garmin! 1) it has Disney characters on it.
This fun fitness tracker is a great way to introduce exercise regimes and help kids and teens establish healthy habits
Easy to use; great display; fun variety of appearances
Mediocre set of fitness tracking abilities; limited health impact; Mediocre set of fitness tracking abilities; limited health impact
The Garmin Vivofit jr 2 is the company's second generation fitness tracker that's back once again to get kids to keep active. Just like Garmin's trackers for grown-ups ( Vivofit 4 or the Vivosport ) it covers the basics like counting steps and monitoring sleep.
Comfortable to wear; Nice Disney-themed designs; Chores and rewards system
Quickly lost interest in adventure game; Some features need an adult to set up; Not the brightest display
A great watch and goal-setting device, not just for fitness but great for homework and chore reminders. Motivates children with game and reward system. My six year old loves the timer for teeth cleaning and the missions within the app. My three year old is dying for one now too.
This is an excellent product that keeps my children active. It has curbed behaviour due to the coins that can be given for good behaviour etc. You can add treats which I allow my children to spent their coins on. It is easy to use and both my boys love them.
My 10 yr old son loves it. He likes that it is waterproof, so he can wear it to shower and swimming. He can track his activity and it also shows the time. He loves it and have not taken it off since we got it. He is afriad of losing it. His younger brother brought the star wars model.
This is our second Garmin vivofit. We love the upgrades in the "2" color screen is nice. Tracks sleep, activity and is a great watch with an easy timer for children to use.
We bought this for our 2nd grader. After we see it from friends. It surely motivate him to do his tasks. The price of the watch is quite expensive. Luckily we have target GC, else I don't think I will buy.
