Smart Target Kiddo Kidkeeper Proximity Alarm - Designed to Keep Your Children Safe

Unfortunately the news these days is dominated by harrowing reports of children going missing and, whilst this Kiddo Kidkeeper Proximity Alarm device manufactured by the Portuguese company Smart Target is aimed squarely at especially young children, allowing you to keep them on an invisible, wireless digital leash, the reassurance it could provide for parents will surely be widely welcomed.

Smart Target’s Kiddo Kidkeeper Proximity Alarm takes the form of a compact key fob style transmitter which is attached to your child whilst you retain the wireless receiver unit and offers two range settings – 4m/13ft and 8m/26ft – with the device sounding an alarm should your child step out of the defined virtual boundary.

Ideal for use in parks and busy shopping centres (where losing a small child within a blink of an eye is all too easy) as well as a host of other scenarios, the Kiddo Kidkeeper Proximity Alarm, which is capable of monitoring up to four children at once, retails for a purported $170 (though official pricing details are yet to be released at the time of writing).
