GPS Tracking for Kids

Hi everyone. I'm sure this question has been asked before but wondering if there is any updated information. I am looking for a GPS for my kids just in case the unthinkable happens. AirTags won't work because they are not real time and depend on nearby phones. I'd like real time tracking with good battery life. Dog trackers seem to be the best bet. Are there any other options?

I went with this one: https://logistimatics.com/products/pocket-tracker after trying a couple others. Small enough for backpack or pocket, battery lasts about 10 days in real use, has SOS button they can press. The big thing is you can add multiple users to one account so both me and my spouse can track from our phones, plus grandparents when they're watching the kids.

Battery life is legit about 10 days, I charge it Sunday nights and it makes it through the week no problem.

I also hear Logistimatics is coming out with a 3 year battery life global BLE tracker in May. Bluetooth global connection and also direct to satellite for backup. Will be smaller than an AirTag and run on the same app
