Peace of mind in your kid's shoe: This AirTag holder can ease your back-to-school worries
We are sending our four-year-old off to school for the first time and are admittedly very nervous about it. I know that I'm not the only parent out there feeling similar anxiety around back-to-school season, but I made one Amazon purchase that is giving both my husband and I a little bit more peace of mind. We purchased an Apple AirTag and a hidden holder shoe insole that fits neatly inside my son's shoes. AirTags have been a common device for parents to keep an eye on their child for a few years now, but kids can lose watches, the tracker can come detached from clothes and your little one can even be separated from their backpack, rendering the device fairly useless. The odds of my son losing his shoes in an emergency are lower, so that's where our comfort comes from. Here's how to shop the hidden AirTag holder insole before you send your kiddos off to school this year. Pro-tip: Prime members can save 10% when they apply the on-page coupon! AirTags are a great option for anything you frequently misplace, or just need that extra peace of mind with a tracking-capable device. Here are some more accessories that might be of use:
