Can you recommend a cheap kids version of a Fitbit?

Ds wants one for his 8th birthday. I’m keen to encourage him to be more active but equally he’s notoriously faddy so I don’t really want to fork out for a Fitbit or garmin type one, can anyone recommend a cheaper version that’s good for kids? Ideally one that doesn’t need to be connected to a phone as obviously he doesn’t have one!

Thanks!

My 8yo and 6yo both have an Amazon basic version of the fitbit and are happy with them. I think they normally retail around £18 but drop to £13 every so often.

Thanks @stompythedinosaur. By any chance do you have a link to it as there is a bewildering array on amazon!

My friends kids have the garmin kids ones which she says are really good.. they unlock levels like on a computer game to reward 60 minutes of activity in a day. Think they are called Garmin vivofit

This is the one we have. Sorry, it isn't Amazon Basic, I got that wrong! It has been fine for both my dc though. There's a range of colours.
