I've recently decided to participate in some sponsored blogger giveaways. It's been giving me something extra to add to the site and more exciting giveaways to bring here for all of you! Today is a pretty special one, not only is the ELPH Band a PTPA winner, but it's actually a really cool product that I think everyone should take a look at - especially parents! I'll be quiet now and onto the giveaway... GOOD LUCK!
Welcome to the ELPH Band Giveaway Event!
Mom Powered Media, ELPH Band, and fantastic group of amazing bloggers have come together to bring you this event, just in time for Halloween.
Hosted by: Mom Powered Media
Sponsored by: ELPH Band
The ELPH Band is a link to your identifying information, such as your address, parent or guardian cell phone numbers and any other information you think is necessary, including medical conditions or drug allergies your child may have. Whether you're traveling to a theme park, zoo, park, a crowded festival or even the mall, the ELPH Band can help find your child in the event he/she gets separated from you. It only takes one second for a child to disappear out of your site.
The ELPH band is a non-toxic, durable, silicone wristband. It provides an immediate, highly visible form of identification with clear instructions directly on the band. It's easy to use with options to dial in or scan the QR code. ELPH Band does not put personal information, such as the child's name or phone number where people can see it when it isn't needed.
What does ELPH stand for? Easy Lookup to Phone Home
If your child get's separated from you, all your child needs to do is show an adult his/her ELPH band. That adult can then call the 800# or scan the QR code to get in touch with you to reunite your child with you! It's that simple!
Once the QR code is scanned on a smartphone, a screen similar to the one below will pop up for them to get in touch with you.
To set up your ELPH band you will register it on a computer, or by scanning the QR code yourself and setting it up via your smartphone. Just a few simple questions and you will be registered. Once completed, you will get a text and email alert letting you know the account profile is active, and to verify the information has been entered correctly.
ELPH Bands are available in 3 sizes: Toddler (up to 5.75 inches), Child (up to 6.5 inches), and Adult (up to 7.5 inches). They are also available in two colors, Navy or Pink.
Buy it: ELPH Bands are $19.99 each and they come with 1 year of service. You can purchase here. After 1 year of service, you can renew your service with ELPH Band.

I viewed the ELPH Band video. I think that it is a great technology to help aide in finding lost kids, and like the video said, all it takes is a Good Samaritan & a phone call to the 800 #, but, what if there is no one around? How will it help with that? Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of having this for my daughters just in case they get lost (God forbid) but I honestly hope I would never have to use it.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great concept! As a mama of 6 and step mom to 2, it can get a little hectic when all out in public together. I feel like I do a pretty good job keeping track of everyone myself, but believe me when I say I am constantly spinning around watching. I would feel so much more confident being out in public and my kids would be safer knowing all they have to do is show the band to an adult. I love the idea of the scannable code and 800 number to use to alert parents that child was found know where they are. Great idea. I agree too though that it would still be tough if no one was around, but I also know that my children do not go anywhere that has no one aeound. There is no 100 tried and true way to keep them safe when no one is around but they should never be alone! These are out children and it is our duty to keep them safe and teach them of the many dangers of the world. The elph band is a great step in that direction!
ReplyDeleteI love the concept. I have three boys so this could definitely come in handy in my house.
ReplyDeleteGreat concept! Thanks for sharing ❤
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea! This idea is perfect for big public settings and I can see the kids wearing the band with no complains or problems. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThe Elph Bands are such a smart idea. I totally need to get one for each of my boys.
ReplyDeleteWhat a smart idea! Thank you for sharing :)

This is such a great idea. I wish they had something like this when my son was little. Thanks for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteThis is such great peace of mind and adds a nice element of safety and security. I love the idea.
ReplyDeleteThis is really cool for kids with health conditions or allergies! Plus it's great just in case they get separated from you.
ReplyDeleteInteresting concept, if I had small children I would definitely investigate more. Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis would very convenient in an emergency! The bright colors should help too
ReplyDeleteI love this idea. Any extra layer of protection we can give to our kids is awesome.

ReplyDeleteThis is totally new to me - I have never heard of the Elph Band. Sharing with friends with small children
ReplyDeleteNeat idea. Really nice giveaway also.
ReplyDeletethis is a neat idea. You can never be too careful these days.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a great band. I think it would be a wonderful tool to help keep kids from being lost.
ReplyDeleteNew to me, but I think it's an awesome idea. Kiddo is 9 and from time to time she forgets that when we go out she should stay with us. We worry her wandering ways are going to get her in trouble. Not so much in the dinky town we live, but elsewhere. Of course, you can never be too safe anywhere.
ReplyDeleteThose are really really awesome.
ReplyDeleteI think that's such a good idea for keeping track of the little ones if you need to. It'd be great for adults in some situations too!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great way to help with lost children! I wish they would of had something like this when my daughter was a toddler!
ReplyDeleteI like that it's highly visible. Such a reassuring thing for the kids to have when we go on a trip.
ReplyDeletewe lost our niece for a brief moment last year and one time this year at an amusement park. She's a wanderer so I think this would be great for her
ReplyDeleteI love that you can add allergy or medical information. That they are made of silicone, and that registration is super easy!
ReplyDeleteThat's a really smart idea. Great for kids who tend to wander.
