If it is a product intended for a child consumer, it is necessary to focus on several basic parameters.
Sound quality
A Bluetooth speaker intended primarily for a child user does not, of course, need to have extremely high performance. Power from 500 watts is more than enough for the average user. It will provide clear enough sound for listening to music and the spoken word in the form of fairy tales or educational materials.
In the case of speakers intended for children, it is essential to allow them to limit the output volume. This will prevent too loud sounds that could unnecessarily damage your child's hearing. The ideal solution in this regard is the Crater-8 Blue 5-watt portable speakerwith a practical design and all the necessary accessories.
Battery life
Of course, even children's listeners will appreciate the speakers' longer battery life. A reasonable interval is at least eight to ten hours per charge. Another popular plus is the fast charging function, which ensures that the speaker is ready for the next use as quickly as possible.
Therefore, consider whether the Crater-12 portable speaker equipped with its own power bank, which can also be used to charge a phone or tablet, would be a good fit for you. The device also supports A2DP Bluetooth profiles, has an integrated 3.5 mm AUX connector for connecting an audio source and offers True Wireless Stereo (TWS) functionality. The offer also includes a third cheaper Crater-11 model with a 30-watt, power bank, which, thanks to its features, is ideal for weekend outings and other leisure activities.
Security
All Orava speakers are made of non-toxic and safe materials. This factor is especially important when it comes to products intended for small children who might accidentally put them in their mouths.
Equally important is the simple and intuitive control of all offered devices. A child should be able to easily handle basic controls such as turning on/off or changing the volume. Some models have a special version adapted to children with large and color-coded buttons.
Connectivity
Check carefully which version of Bluetooth the device comes with. More modern Bluetooth version 5.0 and higher provides better range and connection stability, which is also suitable for children. This makes it easier to connect the speaker to various devices, such as phones, tablets or smart watches.
In case the Bluetooth connection is not available, it is useful when the speaker also offers the option of connecting via an AUX cable. Of course, the powerful portable party speaker Crater-L is also equipped with this. It is composed of three powerful speakers, one tweeter with a diameter of 25 millimetres and two low-tone speakers with a diameter of 203 millimetres. It also offers a Karaoke function with the option of recording audio to USB or microSD.
Additional functions
Some speakers for children offer LED lighting or lighting effects that can make them more comfortable for children to use. An interesting solution is offered by the Crater-7 Bluetooth speaker with an unconventional design, booming super bass and four built-in microphones, whose perfect 360° sound transmission guarantees trouble-free conference calls. It supports Bluetooth profiles A2DP, AVRCP, HFP and connection to devices via AUX, USB or USB Dongle. Among other things, it is also resistant to splashing water with the corresponding IPX4 certification.
Conclusion
Choosing a Bluetooth speaker for a child means combining safety, easy operation and durability. If you add a playful design and good sound quality, you will definitely find an ideal choice that will delight you and your children.
