AIBU to want to track my children?

I've just read about the Tile tracker on another thread on here. What a great idea! I'm getting some for wallet and keys etc. This made me think about tracking the most important things to me: my children.

Does anyone know if you can get or make (with eg a Tile) a bracelet or something similar for them? I can't find anything on Google, just watches for older children that can be tracked.

Knowing I could track them on my phone should they ever get lost at the beach, days out etc would be amazing! No substitution for keeping a close eye on them, which I do, but a good back up. It would also ease anxiety after watching the Madeline documentary. Really shouldn't have watched that. And yes, I know that it is very rare.

I'm happy to be tracked when I'm out running on my own through my phone, I see it as a really good safety feature. They're little so no invasions of privacy or anything. Has anyone found something like this??

I plan on getting one when we go abroad for our girl, who will be 3. But other than that, I wouldn't use one.

I would so gps my child if I could not because I need to know where he is every minute of every day but in case he ever went missing! Extreme I know but I'd do it

To add to this both my DS and I track each other on our phones. To the PP who asked when I would stop - when he is old enough to leave home.
