This holiday season, there will be any tweens and teens who will be asking for a smartphone as the #1 item on their holiday wish list. As parents, we want to give our children the independence of having a mobile phone without the worry of overuse, excessive texting and data bills, as well as safety issues associated with smartphones. I recently learned about ZactMobile, a nationwide service, which offers a smart and affordable option by giving us (the parents) the ability to customize our child‘s plan and set up parental controls.

I love that we can set the amount of text and data usage as well as set curfews, such as at meal and bed times. Zact was recently awarded the seal of approval from The National Parenting Center and their average monthly bill was only $22!!! Are your kids asking for a smartphone this holiday season? If so, you will definitely want to check out Zact Mobile and learn how their features help provide parents peace of mind!

When my son was a tween, smartphones were not too smart, we could set controls, the one we like was when he made calls or someone called him, my phone would ring, alerting me to the number, parental controls now are much easier to use now. 🙂
