[quote=Anonymous]How old is DC? If he's between preschool and mid-elementary, the Migo phone might work. It's quite safe and designed for kids around ages 5-9. Late elementary through middle school is probably getting old enough that a specifically "kid" oriented phone might be too juvenile. A phone doesn't do much good if the kid won't carry it because it looks like a toy he played with years ago. If you think your older child can be trusted with a regular basic phone, Verizon's LG Extravert might suffice as it is basic and inexpensive, and using Family Base you may be able to restrict it somewhat to make it more kid friendly. Verizon doesn't seem to offer much specifically targeted to kids. Are you open to no-contract phones through another service? If so, maybe look into the Just 5 J510 phone ($10 per month for 100 minutes, which roll over if not used) or a phone through Kajeet (various phones and plans, plans from $5/month to $50/month).[/quote]
