We’re all trying to keep our kids healthy and active. Whether your children run the Morning Mile at school each day or play in front of your home after school, it’s proven that more movement will keep our kids more fit today, tomorrow and for years in to the future. GeoPalz is a really cool tool that not only measures how much movement your kids have made … it motivates, inspires and congratulates children to a more fit lifestyle as well. Available in a variety of genuinely adorable designs, these high-end pedometers can be worn on the shoe or on the hip and actually stay in place.
They’re an item I’ve reviewed positively in the past, but GeoPalz has upgraded these bad boys even more and now they operate at a exceptionally high level. The things I like about GeoPalz that put them in a category of their own is:
- Elite 3D designs – you’ll find sports, bugs, animals, guitars, skulls, earthy emblems, peace signs and more.. Something for every child.
- Staying power – the clip on these pedometers will ensure they stay in place and not get lost during a busy school day. We all hate losing stuff.
- Creative cover – these pedometers come in a “shell”, so your kids will not accidentally press buttons and reset their steps throughout the day.
- Online tracking and prizes- at the end of each day a user logs their steps into the GeoPalz website and the steps are then converted into miles/points that can be redeemed for all sorts of physical prizes that will be shipped to your home as well as certificates that they can print and hang on their wall.
My kids are crazy active as it is, but astonishingly, once they clip on their GeoPalz they find the energy to do even more! My 7 year old son loves to see how many steps he took during his Morning Mile runs and my daughter is thrilled to know how many steps she’s taken simply skipping around the house. It makes me laugh, but it totally works in the most positive way ever. If ensuring your kids are fit and active each day, the $25 fee you’ll pay for GeoPalz is a minor investment on a major impact. They’re fun, they’re easy to use and they offer an endless amount of encouragement and support. I highly recommend!
