Disney Cell Phones - Good Solution For Kids

The days when cell phones were just for adults seems to have past us by now with the availability of new products designed for our children. Some of these phones look just like regular toys whilst others look more like mobile phones.

Disney cell phones can offer a very good solution for our children but there are a few negatives as they don't necessarily offer a great solution for parents especially if you require a high-end phone and carrier.

You can of course just buy the Disney cell phone for your children and then force your control by simply using a web interface, this way you'll still be able to have a high end phone for yourself.

They do offer great convenience for parents whilst still carrying enough features to keep the kids happy. And you'll be able to keep control through features like family monitoring. The only negative really is that they are not as high-end as what is available with other carriers.

Disney mobile uses Sprint's infrastructure to enable them to specifically offer a service which has been designed for parents offering very unique services. Parents gain a fair amount of control and are able know where their children are. Parents are also able to control how much their children are able to spend every month as well as being able to control who the kids can and can't call.

These particular cell phones how great for parents who want to slowly give their children a little more freedom to explore their boundaries but still have enough control to keep them safe.

You will not find any flash high-end phones offered by Disney as they are focused on providing simple mobile devices which are inexpensive but still offer the traditional features such as a camera, camcorder and they do offer some packages with Bluetooth but with more limited features.

By using a phone which has been programmed as "parent" you'll be able to set any monthly limits, block certain numbers and there is also an excellent feature which enables you to send a family alert which is a SMS that is then sent to all other family members.

The ability to be able to locate your children and track their whereabouts is obviously a very popular feature amongst parents although I wouldn't expect 100% precision but it will give you a pretty reliable rough estimate of your child's location which lets face it, is a good tool to have in your box in this day and age.

It can be pretty useless with older kids though because if they don't want you to know where they are all they have to do is turn their Disney cell phone off or take the battery out.

So, there are many cool features to the Disney cell phones for both parents and children alike. It's possible to provide your child with a completely functioning cell phone and also be able to rest assured that you are aware of where they are and that they are safe and sound.
