It's a great idea to buy a mobile phone for children as they get older and start to go out with their friends. Mobiles mean they can be in with the crowd having a funky mobile with all the latest gadgets on it (camera, mp3 player, games) but also that you can ring them when they're late home and make sure they're on their way. It can also be used to track children as there are several companies offering this service. You can then keep an eye on where your kids are.

A mobile is also useful for when they want to ring you for a lift home. It can be reassuring to know that children can ring you the minute they need help with a mobile phone - but that's only true if they have credit on it. Sometimes the more credit you put on a phone the more they'll spend. This is something to watch with children - keep an eye on how much they spend on their mobile and set limits. Make sure they know what the limits are and it'll be easy to restrict this.

So they can always ring you it's possible to add a reverse number call option to their phone book. Look into these though as they can be quite dear to use.

So what age should you buy a child a mobile phone? I think the older they are the better. Very young children have no need of one - buy them a plastic toy version that beeps if they insist on a phone. Early teens should be the earliest - some parents see the start of secondary school as important for this first phone purchase. Whether you buy one for Christmas or a birthday, it's a good idea to check with the child what phone they might want - if they are going to want to take photos on their phone it's important to make sure they have a camera built in! A phone really can make an excellent Christmas present!
