BACKGROUND

Technical Field


The embodiments herein generally relate to the field of wearable electronic communication devices, and more particularly to a wearable communication device to enable a child to communicate with parents and friends, without using mobile phones.


Description of the Related Art


Safety of our loved ones is a major concern. Nowadays, child and parent communication is very important, especially for school children. Parents are aware of the school timings for their children, the location of the school, and approximately around what time the child will be coming home from school. However, if a child is coming late from school, mostly parents are unaware since there is no form of communication between them. Almost all schools prohibit children from carrying mobile phones to school and the biggest drawback of this is that the child will not be able to contact the parent and vice versa. Studies have shown that when children engage and compete with their peers, they're more likely to stay motivated to achieve goals and targets.


Accordingly, there remains a need for a wearable device for a child to communicate with parents and friends, without using mobile phones.
