When you
have a little one, time is everything - although it's usually running away from
me! Encouraging a three-year-old to do the right thing at the right time isn't
always easy. But we usually manage to stay roughly on schedule throughout the day. If we want to keep to our routine, though, I
need to be aware of the time. Checking your phone is often the preferred way of
telling the time these days. But it's not quite as convenient as looking at the
watch on your wrist, which you don't have to hold in your hand. I think watches
are still great accessories, and they're practical too. Choosing one that you
want to wear all the time can be difficult though, so here are my tips.
Watch
Purpose
Before you
pick a watch, you need to decide what you want it for. Perhaps you want it to
tell the time during your everyday activities, whether it's going to work or
ferrying the kids about. You might want a watch for sports, which could range
from going
for a run to rock climbing and watersports. Of course now, your watch could
run your whole life for you if you want it to. A smart watch could enable you
to answer phone calls, set alarms, track your fitness levels, and more.
