Fitbit for 8 year old?

Youngest is 8 and has asked for a step counter - he's starting to get into junior park run and sees his older brother and me into fitness (wants to join gym etc).

What types are good for a little kid? Easy to use etc. He doesn't have a phone and won't get one for a while so one that doesn't need an app would be good.

Following because DS (8) wants the same. Their wrists are still so tiny!

My DS is getting a Fitbit junior for his birthday - some are on offer on Amazon for £50 ar the moment and it offers steps, sleep, timing etc.

He's had the Garmin junior but it got lost at a holiday camp a while back so this is the replacement. A lot of his friends have them and they all have little skinny wrists and they sit snugly!

Also - any app is on my phone not on his. He can see what he needs without it!

Fitbit Juniors are great!

My DS has asked for one for Christmas and I've had a few people recommend the MiBand from amazon.

I got a tikker on offer for £10! It’s absolutely brilliant and has lots of functions, can combine with an app or stand alone.

I have a Miband and it's great. Does steps, heart rate, GPS, distance, sleep. Cost less than £30 at the time. Also has a great battery life, I charge about once every 10-14 days.
