How often does your child ask to borrow your phone…or even just picks it up and starts playing with it? \u00a0My friend’s daughter is 13 and every time my friend turns her back, her daughter grabs her mom’s phone and begins texting friends. \u00a0Half the texts my friend receives are messages for her daughter!<\/p>\n

I’ve been in the doctor’s waiting room before and when waiting a while, my phone has provided a great distraction for my kids, (ages 7 and 10), as they watch a Netflix movie. \u00a0This works great until I realize I can’t check my email’s, send a text, or check my calendar. \u00a0So then I’m bored.<\/p>\n

PlayMG has come up with a solution to help parents so their phone isn’t hijacked anymore. \u00a0They have created a smartphone that isn’t a phone for kids. \u00a0The PlayMG looks like a phone with a nice 4 inch screen, and it has the full capabilities of a smartphone with a full Android platform, yet it doesn’t have calling capabilities.<\/p>\n

So with the PlayMG around, your phone will be around too. \u00a0Kids can connect to the Android market via WiFi and download any apps their PlayMG memory will allow. \u00a0The PlayMG comes with 8GB, \u00a016GB, and 40GB, but is also expandable, so you can insert a larger micro SDHC card, for up to 40GB of memory. \u00a0You don’t have this kind of memory flexibility with the popular iPod Touch.<\/p>\n

How Can You PlayMG in the Doctor’s Office?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

I’m guessing this question…or one like it…might a question in your mind, right? \u00a0After all, unless your doctor’s office gives you free access to their WiFi, how will your child be able to use their PlayMG without a cellular signal? \u00a0While it’s true they cannot connect to the Internet or play Internet connected games, PlayMG has already pre-loaded the device with a bunch of free, challenging, non-Internet dependent games. \u00a0These games are fun, well thought out, and there’s a good variety of them.<\/p>\n
