The plus is that it is inexpensive, so you won't care what your child would do with it. The negative is that it doesn't keep time very well. I'll look at it, and it would be 5 to 10 minutes behind. You could adjust it, and it will be behind, again. Don't know what the problem is with this watch!

I sent this watch to my five-year old grandson as his birthday gift. He was very proud wearing it because the second hand had a soccer ball on it and the strap did not need adjusting. Besides, he started playing soccer at that time.

I bought the watch with ball for a 7-year-old boy. He told me he had been wearing it every day. I think he likes it.

These are great! I bought the black one with the lightening bolts for my 6 yr old. I think he wore it for more than a year constantly except to take a bath and for swim class (including at night). The battery died after a little more than a year. Unfortunately, to replace the battery with a water tight seal cost $25. I told him we'd buy a new watch. He chose the spaceship one... then he didn't wear it for 6 months. The other one is still in his drawer. He just started wearing it again... he loves it! I WILL buy one for my second son... probably the green one with the frogs!

I bought two of these one for each of my boys for Christmas. One of the two watches never did keep time properly. I even changed the battery. An expensive fix that did not work.
