WHAT IT IS

Designed for kids ages 5 and up, the Heartbeats Brand Electronic Stethoscope is a new take on the medical tool for kids who are eager to play doctor. Instead of the traditional stethoscope with earpieces and a bell, this STEM toy features over-the-ear headphones and a heart-shape bell that transmits pulses, including heartbeats and other vibrations, to the headphones using an aux cord. Kids can use the Electronic Stethoscope to hear their own heartbeat, but the kit also comes with a guide featuring other educational activities kids can do with the stethoscope, including listening to household sounds, playing charades, navigating mazes, and more. It also comes with a wrist strap, so kids can keep the electronic bell on hand.

WHY WE LOVE IT

On its own, the Electronic Stethoscope is an incredibly cool product that makes stethoscopes more accessible than ever, especially for kids who don’t like sticking the earpieces in their ears to listen. The Electronic Stethoscope’s adjustable over-the-ear headphones also fit kids of all sizes, making sure that everyone can be involved in play. Plus, the included booklet features eight other activities to test out that don’t include listening to kids’ heartbeats, so play lasts even longer. 

IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW

While the Electronic Stethoscope does work like a real stethoscope, it shouldn’t be used for medical purposes.
