Headset Walkie Talkies for Kids

by Turin Lotr on April 24, 2010

In World War II walkie-talkies were invented by radio engineer Donald Hangs, Alfred Cross and the other engineering teams working at Motorola for the United States during that time. Walkie-talkie hand-held devices provided quick, reliable communication between soldiers in the battlefield. These small hand-held devices are used for public safety around the world today. Walkie-talkies are small form-factor hand radios, used by people to keep in touch with their loved ones, and come with varied accessories to make their use more efficient.

While walkie-talkies work exceptionally well to provide communication for the non-military user one must remember that frequencies are limited and the use of these frequencies is governed differently around the world. For those of us that live in the United States the FCC has set aside 14 separate frequencies (UHF) that can be used. Another nice thing about purchasing small handheld walkie-talkies is that you don’t have to purchase any additional airtime… just open the package and go.

Many parents see cell phones as providing a huge advantage for keeping in touch with their young children. While cell phones can in fact help to communicate with your young children, they also can introduce a certain level of risk to the safety of your child. Regrettably, many young cell phone users do not have the maturity required to understand the potential security risks that exist with their phone.

Phones with links to the Internet can also pose a serious problem, where the child can enter chatrooms, and connect to anyone in the world, including deranged people looking for innocent children to violate. Cell phones can be open portals right into your child’s life, complete with camera functions. A better alternative is obvious: walkie talkies for kids – portable two way radios, long range two way radios, with or without headsets. There are so many of these on the market, very reasonably priced, that eliminate all of the worries that come with cell phone use.

A great place to pick these up is Toys R Us, they are well stocked with batteries, conveniently located by the register so you remember to pick them up before taking your new toys home. Toys R Us also carries the largest selection of short range radios in many colors, complete with Dora the Explorer and Princess decorations for the girls.
