Best for Toddlers (Boardbug) |
 |
 While most monitors are used to watch over sleeping babies, it's when children get older that keeping track of them gets even harder. Enter the Boardbug Baby and Toddler Monitor - this award-winning device is designed to be worn by both child and parent, allowing you to keep tabs on even the most active child. |

| The Boardbug Baby and Toddler Monitor is unique in the market as it provides a means to keep track of not just babies, but active toddlers too. Every mother knows that anxious moment when you lose sight of your child for a moment in the park, or when you are out shopping. |
Peace of Mind |
The Boardbug can help to put your mind at rest. It is fitted with an alarm that is activated whenever your toddler goes too far beyond a preset range. There are three preset ranges to choose from, so you can widen the area as your child gets more independent . This feature works in an area up to 150 metres from the parent unit.
It also has an alarm which can be sounded if your child does wander off, which makes locating a missing toddler easier. |
Small is Beautiful |
 As it's the smallest monitor on the market it can be worn like a wristwatch by both parent and child. Or you can keep it in a bag, on a belt or in your pocket. An alarm feature will alert the parent if the child's unit is tampered with or removed.
Each Boardbug comes with a unique code to ensure that it doesn't suffer from interference from other nearby monitors, and the manufacturers promise you will get clear sound anywhere in the world. This makes it great for travel - so you can keep tabs on children in places like crowded airports or while in hotels or holiday complexes - as well as for trips to the park.
It's powered by coin cell batteries with a lifespan of up to six months, so there is no need to worry about recharging the monitor all the time.
Although this monitor's main appeal might be for parents with older children, it can be used just like a conventional baby monitor, measuring temperature and sounds to ensure baby is sleeping safe and sound. |
Bringing up baby |
 In baby mode it can also be set to sound an alarm to remind you when to feed your baby, though in our experience most babies are pretty good at doing that for themselves.
As anyone with small children knows it's not always easy to get them to wear what you want, especially if it's for their own safety. But the Boardbug's styling has proved a hit with parents and children alike. One dad says: "It's wonderful, it's stylish and every parent should know about it. My 19-month-old daughter loves it and thinks it is her first watch".
As well as winning the praise of customers it has raked in awards, winning the International Consumer Electronics Innovation of the year in 2005 as well as coming out on top in monitor tests carried out by Pregnancy & Birth magazine, The Telegraph and The Independent. |
