Why are there presents for the start of school?
The custom of giving back-to-school gifts has its origins in various cultural traditions and customs that have evolved over time. There are several reasons why back-to-school gifts are given on this special occasion. Starting school is a crucial event in your child's life. It marks the beginning of a new phase of learning and personal development. Back to school gifts are given to celebrate this momentous transition and to encourage your child.
In addition, back-to-school gifts are also intended to provide your child with support and motivation. The transition to school can be associated with uncertainty and nervousness. The gifts will show your child that they are supported on their educational journey and that you have confidence in their abilities. This can boost their self-confidence and make them look forward to the challenges of school.
What should you look out for in back-to-school gifts?
When choosing back-to-school gifts, it is important to pay attention to the usefulness of the gifts. Practical gifts that help your child to cope with everyday school life and promote their learning development are particularly valuable.
The Anio 5 as an ideal back-to-school gift
The Anio 5 children's smartwatch is like a small smartphone - only without the bells and whistles, specially designed for the small wrists of children aged 6 and over. With a weight of just 32 grams and its small dimensions, the Anio 5 is the lightest and smallest children's smartwatch. We have deliberately dispensed with a camera, games and other bells and whistles, as we believe that children are already distracted and overstimulated enough these days thanks to digital media and the like. In many schools, children's smartwatches are banned because of their camera or gaming functions.

Functions of the Anio 5 for your child's everyday school life:
Telephone function (https://anio.eu/blogs/blog/kinderuhr-telefon): The Anio 5 children's watch phone not only enables your family to communicate better, but also to reach your children despite their independence. No more long waits after training or being the last one to wait for the parents in case you are late. Find out more here: //Link
Localization function (https://anio.eu/blogs/blog/gps-tracker-kind): The interval-controlled GPS tracking of the children's watch via GPS/WLAN allows you to always know where your child is. Thanks to the geofence function, you will receive a push notification when the Anio smartwatch enters or leaves a certain area. Once everything is set via the app, your child can walk to school on their own and become more independent. IMPORTANT: If required, the GPS tracking of the children's watch can also be switched off via the Anio Watch parent app! The Anio Smartwatch is currently the only watch on which the tracking can be switched off. Your child cannot deactivate tracking themselves. More about this here: //Link
School mode (https://anio.eu/blogs/blog/smartwatch-schuldmodus): The Anio 5 has a school mode specially developed for schools. This school mode can be activated and controlled via the Anio Watch parent app. To do this, you set certain times for certain days of the week when the watch becomes a normal wristwatch. During these times, the Anio Smartwatch display automatically turns red. The watch's touchscreen is now locked and the display only shows the selected watch face (analog or digital) during this time. All incoming calls and messages are blocked and muted during this period. More information here: //Link
SOS function (https://anio.eu/blogs/blog/kinderuhr-notruf): The Anio 5 children's watch with SOS function can save lives in an emergency. Your child can quickly and easily press the SOS button on the watch, whether in a minor or major emergency. The Anio 5 has an SOS button on the side of its case. If your child presses the SOS button for 3 seconds, the watch calls three predefined SOS phone numbers in a specific order. These are called one after the other until one of the SOS contacts answers the call. As soon as the call is answered, your child can speak to the person using the watch's telephone function.
