Smartwatches with calling capabilities are ideal from around 8–9 years old, when children start gaining independence (going to school alone, extracurricular activities, etc.).
At this age, a kids’ watch with calls like the Robin Watch K1 allows you to:
- Stay in contact with parents without needing a mobile phone.
- Encourage independence within safe limits.
- Establish routines and mutual trust.
For younger children, it is a useful tool for outings, camps, vacations, or excursions.
