Watch plan for kids

Seems straightforward but what do I know. I would like my kids to have a watch (wearable device) that we can text back and forth with and possibly make calls. It should be independent (not needing a phone to pair to) and have a reasonably affordable plan. We tried the Garmin Bounce with LTE and the lag time and unreliability of message delivery made the product unusable for real life applications. Bell, if I understand their plan mumbo jumbo, requires having a parent plan (I refuse to pay $100 per month for a plan) and then add on the “standalone” watch plan.

When is this going to be a thing Koodo?

No, Koodo didn't offer any specific plan (or addon) for smartwatch. Plans are either for cellphone, tablet or home phone.

If the smartwatch can act as an individual phone (with a simslot or an eSIM) then you could use a Koodo plan in it.

Regarding the question “when”, they might offer in future but sofar, there wasn't any announced plan available for customer to see.
