    HI! Looking for a fitness tracker that is not worn on wrist, but perhaps and necklace, ring, or shoelace device.
    Thanks!

    Hi Karey,

    Is this for your Mom, who is as I recall a Digital Goddess in Training? 🙂

    How did you remember that?!?! That’s a great idea! This gadget is actually for a special little buddy of mine who is 8 years old today. Her mom says she doesn’t want to wear a watch. (My mom might like it too.)
    P.S. My mom is ready to become an intern for you … just in case! 🙂
    Thanks as always; you are amazing 🙏🏼

    Well, fitness trackers are meant to be worn on the wrist for accuracy.

    Fitbit makes a nice one, here’s a link for kids 8+:

    But if your friend wants a pendant, necklace, or bracelet, Bellabeat makes one. Note it has features she won’t need now like cycle tracking…

    See what you think of these two for your friend and Mom! Give her my best, by the way!

    🙂
