    Our first daughter had a old smart phone at about 8 (she has just turned 9). It doesn’t have data turned on, so is more or less a dumb phone unless she is at home. I don’t think her little sister could care less about getting one.

    I think that it’s good for her to have one as it means she can contact us if she goes up the road to her friends or park/shop.

    She doesn’t have it for at school or general day to day life - so it may not be the best example
