The Timex T78061 Youth digital watch is reliable, durable, and readable in the dark, thanks to the integrated Indiglo night-light, but it's also flat-out fun to wear. It features an easily readable digital display with large, recognizable icons for the chrono, alarm, and timer functions, and a comfortable elastic fabric strap (for better dirt and stain resistance) with a rocket ship against a black base. This watch also offers water resistance to 30 meters (99 feet), 12/24-hour time, durable translucent blue resin case, large function buttons, and Timex's unique Kids Loss Protection Plan. It's recommended for children ages 6 and older.
The Indiglo night-light uniformly lights the surface of
the watch dial using patented blue electroluminescent lighting
technology. It uses less battery power than most other watch
illumination systems, enabling your watch battery to last longer. The
Night Mode feature allows you to illuminate the Indiglo night-light for 3
seconds with any button press, regardless of the mode or function.

It's a watch, what else can I say?
Well, for starters, it has a stretchable band. This makes it very easy for a 5-year-old to take the watch on and off. It is also more comfortable than Velcro (TM) type.
The watch is a little over sized for a 5-year-old, but mine does not mind that, at all. It has a lot of functions for a kid's watch: stop watch, timer, alarm and date. My kid already learns how to use the stop watch and the date function. The timer takes a little more work, as the amount of time needs to be specified first.
The watch is also water resistant, which is important as summer approaches.
I am ordering a second one (slightly different style) for my 9-year-old!

We bought this watch for my 8 year old son for Christmas. He has worn it almost everyday for 6 months. He loves it and it's so easy for him to use. The buttons are easy for kids fingers to use. He loves the indiglo light feature. The stretchy band makes it easy for him to put on and take off. It is also easy to adjust bigger or smaller. He accidently wore it swimming, and the screen went blank. We replaced the battery and it works fine again. It does states that it is water-resistant, not water-proof. We were happliy surprised that still worked. It seems very durable for kids.

The watch has buttons that are very easy for a child to push. Also, the Indiglo feature is very helpful. The timer feature is good when you want to give a set time for your child to do something. A great starter watch for when your child is ready to learn the concept of time. It's water and dirt resistant which is always a good thing!

My 10-year-old daughter is very happy with this watch. The adjustable elastic strap provides a good fit with easy-on-easy-off convenience, and it keeps accurate time. The price is right for a child's timepiece, and rugged enough for their active lifestyles. A good buy! I also purchased Timex Kid's Rotating Lightning Watch T89042 and my comments in this review apply to that watch as well.

My 7 year old son is very happy with this watch. He won't take it off. He especially likes the light feature.
