LeapBand: Children's Activity Tracker

Published on Aug 11, 2014

Discover the only activity tracker made for kids that encourages active play and healthy habits with 50 fun challenges, featuring a customizable pet pal. Kids can earn energy points—then unlock rewards for being active, caring for a pet pal and completing challenges on LeapBand. It’s fit made fun—just for kids!

LeapBand comes with 10 imaginative and active play challenges, as well as 4 cool-down challenges. Plus, parents can easily add up to 36 more challenges in LeapFrog Connect so kids can have fun completing challenges.

Extend play to LeapPad Ultra, smartphones and tablets - unlock rewards and learn about staying healthy. In the Petathlon App, kids can compete in 6 mini-games like archery, surfing and bobsled to win medals and new tracksuits; once kids earn extras, synch LeapBand to LeapFrog Connect and see their LeapBand pets wearing fun new accessories. And, as kids fill their playbook they’ll get tips about nutrition, just as real athletes do.

LeapBand features helpful parent controls, including School and Quiet modes. Set their device to School mode via LeapFrog Connect account to lock all game and pet play; in School mode, LeapBand continues to track your child’s activity points and displays watch functions. Press a combination of buttons on the LeapBand to enter Quiet mode to mute game play any time. Additional features include rechargeable battery, water-resistant design, engaging audio and hi-res screen.

*Petathlon App is compatible with most Apple iOS devices running 6.0 or higher, Google Android devices running 4.03 or higher and LeapFrog Wireless Tablets.
