Giggle Bug Toddler Tracker Child Locator - Red

It was very cute, however, I put the beeper in my pocket and when I bent down to look at something or dig for my phone it would go off. One of eyeballs lights have already gone out for good. I think this is a fabulous idea, but my 4 year old did not want to wear it on her back. we had to put in on the front of her shirt...

Bought it, tried it and returned it. It's a good idea, but it's just not such a great product. I heard the newer version is better. The one I got is kind of cute (it's pink ) and could be a toy for older kids, but as a child locator, it just doesn't work that well. I am not sure if the battery is old or something else is wrong.

I guess this is good idea, but it's a little tricky to clip on to back of the child's shirt... My son can feel it so he's always trying to get it off. Plus, it's hard to reset the sound button.

I took the Giggle bug with us to a stock show. It was inside a large building with lots of people and you could not hear the beep with the child right next to you unless you listened really carefully. The beep is not loud enough.

I thought this was a clever idea for helping me find my toddler in a department store. It was $20 wasted. First it took 4 1/2 months to get because of backorders getting pushed back. Second, it isn't loud enough in most stores because the beep can not be heard most of the time over the music. Works fine if the store is fairly empty and playes subdued music. Third, after a month it stopped beeping. It buzzed and vibrated for hours. I took the battery out hoping to reset the bug. This didn't work. The buzzing continued after replacing the battery with a new one. I don't know if I just got a dud but it's overpriced and failed me miserably.

This is such a great product. I hate taking my toddler shopping. He is constantly getting away from me. I clipped the bug on him and now all I have to do is push my hand held unit and I hear him beeping. Now I at least know what direction to head to find him before he wanders too far away from me. I clipped the bug on his back where he couldn't get at it. And if the bug comes off or someone tries to take it off, it makes a continuous beep. I wish I had this product when my older kids were little.

I bought this for my son when he turned 2 as he is a runner. He thought it was cute but there was no way we keep him from removing it from his clothes as it just clips on. We tried butting it in a pocket of his clothes but could not get it to work. We were better served by the backpack monkey harness. I couls have sold 20 of those in the airport during out trip.
