Waterproof and highly visible metal detector

 Metal detecting is not just a hobby for professionals - it's a fun and affordable activity for the whole family and makes a great outdoor gift.

So, pull your kids away from the screen, get them out of the house and into nature and introduce them to this fascinating outdoor hobby. We bet they'll be hooked in no time. I mean treasure hunts are full of surprises and they can dig in the dirt - every child's dream day!

Like any activity involving children, the secret to a happy hunt is to plan a little ahead. So, we've gathered some great tips from some experienced families, as well as some advice on the best equipment to use with your fledgling detector.

1. Pack your bags!
Don't even consider keeping the kids busy all day without supplies - i.e. snacks! Kids get hungry about every 90 seconds, so don't let yourself fall over from not eating. Make sure you have enough fuel to keep the little ones going, you'll get more out of the day's hunt and ensure you set off when they're well rested, which will also make for a longer day.

2. Dress for the occasion
You know how you feel when you're outdoors and spend hours on your feet, and you want to make sure you're dressed comfortably and for your environment and climate. We recommend comfortable clothing made from breathable materials, a hat and sunscreen if the weather is warm, and boots if necessary.

3. Choose a familiar and safe location
Although there are many interesting places to take children hunting, it is best not to be too adventurous right from the start. Children can have a lot of fun learning to use metal detectors in their own back garden and going into enclosed places they are already familiar with, such as a local park.

4. Teach your child to use a metal detector at home
We recommend that you teach your children how to use a metal detector in their own garden at home before taking them to the beach or further afield. You will make the most of your treasure hunting time if everyone has practised using a detector.
Using a metal detector opens up a great opportunity to introduce your children to the science behind them. They are actually very simple machines. Learn how metal detectors work and share this information with your children.

5. Consider seeding the lawn
When children are new to metal detecting, tossing a few coins into the grass to get them to find something could be a good motivator. This is known as seed hunting and you know there is a target. It helps to learn how to understand your detector and recognise the different signals of different types of things.
Even adults can enjoy seed hunting. Throwing a few everyday coins into the yard can give everyone the thrill of the hunt. Coin collecting can be a great hobby to practice along with metal detecting.

6. Use a suitable waterproof metal detector for children
Children who are introduced to hunting at a young age will usually extend their interest into adulthood. Consider this when you are looking for the perfect metal detector for your child. It makes sense to choose a product that they can easily learn to use, but that they can also use as they grow up and hopefully become more independent and have more features in their metal detector. And you don't always have to spend a fortune to achieve this!

There are definitely some special considerations that you need to bear in mind when buying metal detectors for adults that you intend to use with your child. Here are some key points to consider before buying a metal detector for children: look for a lightweight design; high durability; ease of use; fair price; age and attention span appropriate for the child; ability to detect metal; adjustable sensitivity, etc.

It's a great hobby that fosters creativity and discovery in children, which can be obtained for a small amount of money.
