[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We got the Garmin Vivofit for our 8y old last Christmas. He wears it everyday and never takes it off - except for showers. He just looks at it for the number of steps he gets (he gets far more in school that I do at work!) and is always trying to beat his 'record.' :) And he competes with his sitter for the number of steps they get.

It has worked great for my kid.

This. My 7 year old begged for a month straight and also offered to use his savings. Bought it in January and he is still very much in love with it. In fact, there has not been one toy/item that has kept his interest like his Fitbit. We have daily challenges with DS, DH, cousins and aunts/uncles. My DS usually beats us all every day. He has been very responsible with it. Takes it off before showering (even though it's resistant). He got bummed last sat when we had to leave for baseball game and it was still charging. Equally bummed when I told him it would be best to leave it home this summer during camp as they will be swimming/lake most days. I never thought I'd say it has been the best purchase we've made for him to date. [/quote]
