Metal Detectors for Kids

A lot of kids grew up with the fascination of pirates and buried treasure. The child of course will never find an old treasure map to enjoy this sort of adventure. Parents however can offer some support by letting the kid have fun by hiding something in the house and looking for it.

Having a treasure hunt at home can be fun. The best way to enlarge the search area will be to do this also in the backyard and even getting a metal detector. Here are a few basic units that the person can choose from.

The Hays Mark 2 is ideal for a child below 9 years of age. It has a small control unit, which will sound when something metallic has been found. It comes with a 5 inch coil that is just right for someone short and is powered by a single 9 volt alkaline battery.

The product lines are very limited for those who are still very young. But those aged 10 and up can have more fun.

One model is the Bounty Hunter Fast Tracker. It comes with a 7 inch waterproof search coil, a sensitivity control box that allows the user to target a specific object such as a coin.

This kind of metal detector also has an external speaker as well as a headphone jack. This allows the person to use either one or the other that will alert the individual when something is in the ground.

The price for this device is less than $100. Should there be any problem with the machine, this can be brought to the shop for repair since it comes with a 5 year warranty.

The Garret 250 is another model that can even be used by adults. It comes with an LCD screen, push button controls, an electronic pinpoint system and a battery indicator that will tell when it is time to have these replaced.

This type of metal detector will cost a little more than the previous one. This can be ordered online or purchased in the store for less than $215 but is well worth it given the features.

There are other metal detectors worth checking out but this will already cost more than $500, which is too much to spend on a kid doing treasure hunting for the first time. Perhaps when the child is older and still loves to do this as a hobby can the person start thinking of getting a better model.
