From GPS tracking watches for the under-10 set to wearable thermometers, it was a big year for kid-friendly tech (and, FYI, there are no signs of it slowing down in the new year). Flip through the album below to get a closer look at some of our favorite gizmos and gadgets that streamlined family life like a boss over the last 365 days.

Wrist Watch

It’s cute as all get-out, and it will certainly help your little one learn to tell time. But what helps make this watch so special is the fact that it comes with an internal GPS system that is connected to a smartphone app, which shows parents where their kids—too young for cell phones—are in real-time.

Available at hereofamily.com, $179.
