My daughter has had walkie talkies before. They were cheap toys, and didn’t work well. They were fun for five minutes but quickly grew old.
This time as we were at the toy store, she said she wanted walkie talkies again. I told her that if she didn’t get a toy, we would get her real walkie talkies. I searched online and found a pair of regular walkie talkies.
I didn’t realize what a good investment I’m making at the time. We constantly use them now.
Me: [static] “Breakfast is done” [Beep]
Daughter: [static] “Okay. Just need to clean up and I’ll come down” [Beep]
Daughter: [static] “Papi, I need help. I can’t open this” [Beep]
Me: [static] “Coming. Hang on” [Beep]
Sometimes we also talk to each other using the walkie talkies, even when we’re clearly within earshot.
There are two other funny side effects of buying the walkie talkies.
First, my daughter is now ‘teaching’ me to always use the walkie talking when not in the same room. Sometimes she has clearly heard me, but she’ll reply on the walkie talkie. [Static] “Did you say something to me? I didn’t hear you. Please use the walkie talkie” [Beep]
Second, we can sometimes hear other people talk on some of the channels. Sounded like some facility nearby had a blocked toilet recently. It’s a voyeuristic pass time.
Me: [static] “I’m not sure if I like it because, unlike some of her toys, its something we use everyday. Maybe I like because I’ve found a new way to communicate with my daughter. Maybe both of us geeking out on walkie talkies makes me realize that she’s a lot like me. I do know that it was a good decision” [Beep]

They may lack even a volume control, but they may nevertheless be elaborately designed, often superficially resembling more "grown-up" radios such as FRS or public safety gear. long distance walkie talkie
