The latest trend in kids' smartwatches is one that encourages healthy habits from an early age.NehBaby, a device from Kickstarter, aims to help kids ages 2 to 8 learn how to drink water, take a bath, exercise, and much more, Mashable reports.
The device plays animations and audio to remind the child when it's time to do those things, according to its website.
The idea is that the watch will make everyday tasks more interesting for the child and help him or her prioritize what to do next.
The device is expected to hit the market in the fall.
