THIS INTERACTIVE WATER<br />
BOTTLE TEACHES KIDS TO<br />
DRINK MORE WATER<br />
Many kids may not be<br />
drinking the right amount of<br />
water everyday, so a company<br />
created an interactive water<br />
bottle which teaches kids to<br />
drink water and let them have<br />
fun at the same time. The<br />
Gululu Interactive Bottle isn’t<br />
your ordinary water bottle, it<br />
has a screen, a home button,<br />
touch sensors, WiFi and<br />
wireless charging. Its main<br />
purpose is to track how much<br />
water is being drank.<br />
Have you ever played the<br />
game Tamagotchi? Well, this<br />
water bottle is similar to that.<br />
When you first use the bottle,<br />
you have to set a goal for<br />
how much your child should<br />
be drinking, then the bottle<br />
will track their progress on<br />
the bottle’s screen in different<br />
fun ways. There is a map that<br />
reached toward a goal as your<br />
child drinks more. They will<br />
also have a cute digital pet<br />
which evolves as your child<br />
meets their goals. With this fun<br />
technology, the company hopes<br />
to be able to motivate kids to<br />
drink more water.<br />
With the help of the Gululu<br />
app, parents will be able to<br />
check on their child’s progress.<br />
The app sets the hydration goals<br />
based on the child’s weight, age,<br />
and location. Accompanying<br />
its eye-catching designs and<br />
interactive platform, this bottle<br />
can also be charged wirelessly.<br />
