Take $50 off the Fitbit Google Ace for kids

SAVE $50: As of Oct. 18, get the Fitbit Google Ace on sale for $179.95 at Amazon, down from its usual price of $229.95. That's a discount of 22%.

Your kids may not need a full-fledged smartwatch, but an activity tracker can be a fun addition to encourage movement for people of any age. And the best part is, they're typically much more affordable than the latest and greatest smartwatches like a new Apple Watch. Give your kids an incentive to stay active with an affordable, kid-focused watch that they'll actually want to use with some help from this Amazon deal.

As of Oct. 18, get the Fitbit Google Ace (LTE) for just $179.95. That's $50 off its normal price of $229.95 and a 22% discount. Currently, this price only applies to the Spicy Moovin colorway, which is a fun and colorful design that should appeal to little ones.

This wearable is a good way to introduce kids to fitness tracking. Its built-in 4G LTE and GPS capabilities let you keep an eye on where your kids are at all times, while the tracker's wide range of capabilities help them stay active and keep an eye on how much they've accomplished, including built-in games that encourage them to get moving — if nothing else can get them off of Roblox, a fun new piece of tech might.

The watch has a 16-hour battery life as well as fast charging to get it back up to 11 hours of runtime in just 30 minutes, as well as parental options like School Time, which you can turn on so little ones can't start gaming on their watch while they're supposed to be studying. And if they ever need to pay with their watch, Tap to Pay makes a great addition to its feature set.

The holidays are right around the corner, so this is a great option to scoop up while it's even cheaper than its September price. Be sure and lock yours in while it's in stock.
