Starling is an amazing little wearable star-shaped object that aims to boost a child's IQ, track the number of words said and heard every day.
Starling believes that tracking the number of words said and heard each day is very important. Their research has shown that early vocabulary development can have an impact on your child and their IQ. One of the biggest predictors of future cognitive, social and emotional success is the number of words a child hears before the age of four.
This small wearable works in conjunction with a smartphone application that collects information on your child's progress and suggests activities to help you stimulate your child. Deceptively cute, Starling is actually crammed with technology and is patent pending. To use it, just clip it to your child's clothes in the morning and remove it at night when you put it to bed. At any time, a simple press of the button will let you know if you are close to the number of daily words to reach.
When you synchronize it with your smartphone, the application will give you a little analysis and a summary. As I said, it will also give you ideas for activities and challenges to help you reach your goals every day with your child.
Obviously Starling has thought of security. The company thought the kids were going to chew or drool on the wearable; see even cover it with chocolate. It is therefore easy to clean, is BPA and phthalate free. They also thought about privacy. Starling does not record what you say, it just counts the words. No one will know what you are saying. Finally, if momentarily you do not have an internet or network connection, Starling can still continue to operate.
