Walkie talkie recommendations

[pup]

Hi all, I'm looking for a pair of walkie talkies to buy for Christmas presents. They will be for our two daughters aged 4 & 7, so they can be contactable when they go on adventures around the farm. The farm is roughly 500 acres and quite wooded.

 

Can anyone recommend a make or model that will give us good coverage up to a mile? Looking to spend £30-50.

 

Thanks, Pup.

Try these I've got some older versions their spot on TLKR T40 - MOTOROLA TWO WAY - RADIOS PMR446, TLKR T40 TWIN | CPC

Can't recommend specific models. But have used various Motorola and Sony multi-channel radios in the past. Motorola were always robust and frequently waterproof. Good reception but tended to be heavier, in part due to high-end power packs. Sony gave excellent vocal reproduction but weren't so robust.

I recommend a rechargeable as you'll soon get peed off with buying batteries

Yeah will agree with Motorola being robust, I got some for the village Christmas festival, it's held outside and usually lashes it down! They always came back soaking and still work now after 5 years

Could also try these, a bit more expensive but re-chargeble and a better range http://cpc.farnell.com/motorola-two-way/tlkr-t60/radios-pmr446-tlkr-t60-twin-pack/dp/IT45218

Thank you everybody for the helpful replies.

Njmusk- thanks for the offer but I'll probably buy a new set of motorolas, as they get recommended 👍
