We’re planning a week-long hiking trip with our ten-year-old next month, and I’m really worried about keeping in touch without giving him a full smartphone. I’ve looked into basic GPS trackers and some simple calling devices, but I’m not sure which ones actually work well in remote areas with spotty service. Does anyone have experience with dedicated emergency phones for kids, or would you recommend a specific type of device that’s reliable but still simple enough for a child to use?
