(Australia-NewsWire.Com, July 02, 2015 ) Gold Coast, Australia -- Myka Creative Solutions announced today that its flagship product, the MykaStikSelfie Stick, is now available for kids for a limited time. The lightweight, high quality selfie stick helps kids capture fun year-round with their friends and family, at camp and sporting events and more.
The selfie stick phenomenon has swept the globe, the evidence of which is seen everywhere from social media sites to the most popular television shows and movies. Mobile device users of all ages now take millions of selfies each month, including kids.
As part of its launch campaign, the makers of mykastik are offering parents tips on how to teach kids valuable lessons about using selfies for healthy self-expression and responsible social media usage. According to the makers of the MykaStik, these tips are essential in helping to combat cyber bullying and promote healthy self-esteem.
According to MykaStik makers, parents should:
Monitor mobile device usage. Parents can help kids use mobile devices and social media responsibly by monitoring their usage, modeling responsible behaviors and engaging in discussions on what is appropriate. Parents can also review images that have been taken with their kids' mobile devices to ensure that kids are using selfies as a method of healthy self-expression.
Monitor the time kids spend online. While social media and mobile device activity is at an all time high, and a prevalent part of pop culture, kids' usage should be limited. By establishing boundaries and setting time limits, parents can ensure that the time kids are spending online is healthy, and that they are devoting enough time to other activities, including homework, physical exercise and spending time with friends.
Encourage creativity. Selfies are a great way to nurture kids' creative sides. Parents can help kids create collages and other fun digital art projects that capture all of the things they enjoy, and their unique talents. Selfies can also be a great tool for capturing memories of family activities, including vacations, birthday celebrations and other important milestones.
Foolproof in the hands of kids, the MykaStik is a colorful, lightweight and durable selfie stick that holds devices up to 500 grams. The Mykastik fully extends to 31.9 inches, and its adjustable crystal ball head and thumbscrew lock helps kids to take selfies at a variety of angles.
The MykaStik is made of high quality anodized aluminum tubes, and includes a smartphone gripper and strap. It also includes a universal mount to attach smartphones, as well as compact cameras or action cameras, such as the GoPro.
It's an all-weather solution, guaranteed to work out of the box. No battery or Bluetooth are required. If needed, a Bluetooth controller can be purchased separately
The MykaStik is available in five colors, including black, blue, gold, silver and tan. It's backed by a no-questions-asked, 12-month replacement warranty against manufacturer defects.
"I am loving the selfie stick," said Heather Joseph, a MykaStik customer. "I purchased this for my niece the other day because she loves taking selfies of herself. I heard this was a great product after doing some researching and now understand why. This is a very high quality selfie stick."
The MykaStik for kids is available for a limited time.
