elph band Review and $125 Target GC Giveaway

 
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.  

My thoughts: 

This is such a wonderful product! My older daughter wore it when we went to Great America last weekend, and it gave me a huge sense of peace knowing that she's covered. Yes, she's old enough and knows my phone number, but what if she was injured or hysterical?
 

I even scanned it using my own QR code reader to see how it worked. Not only did it instantly give me results (as the finder of the lost child), but I received a text immediately and an email telling me that my child was found! What a great way to know instantly that your child is safe, even before the person who found her makes the call!

The one downside for me (well, besides the fact that I don't have one for each of my kids!) is that when we used spray sunblock it discolored the band a bit. Not hugely, but enough so that my daughter noticed.

My daughter hasn't taken it off since this weekend! So I'm going to have to buy one for my younger daughter, since she's the one who can really use it.
