The Safety Turtle is a nifty, comfortable turtle-shaped wristband that children will enjoy wearing whenever they are outdoors or near water. The alarm sounds the minute your child’s wrist touches water, and it is loud enough to be heard from some way away. The base station comes with a battery that has a fairly long life. The carrying case is small and neat, and it’s surprisingly light, so it’s worth schlepping on holiday or to family who have pools without fences. As a last line of defence it seems like a really good idea, as children can drown so.
