2005 Special for members of our ionKids Autism Community.

Although ionKids products have found their way into many homes the most rewarding use of our products has been in homes where there are people with special needs such as Autism, Down Syndrome and Alzheimer's.  We are very happy to be helping these families.  And to help them more Bluespan is offering a special discount to registrants of the Bluespan / ionKids Special Needs Communities. 

If you register for the ionKids Autism Community you will receive an email providing you with a 30-day special price of $174.95.  This price is a 21% DISCOUNT off our retail price of $219.95 and is available only to registrants of our ionKids Special Needs Communities.   (If you have already purchased your Starter Kit we will send you a complimentary Belt Clip Adapter or Car Charger accessory.)

And to further help our families with special needs, starting November 9, 2005 Bluespan will offer a NO INTEREST, NO FINANCE CHARGES Easy Payment Plan for purchases from the ionKids Storefront. Payments start as low as $43.99 and you can spread your payments out for 5 months. Learn more at our Payment Plan Information Page.

You still get the same unconditional 90 day guarantee on purchases from the Bluespan ionKids storefront plus will be kept up-to-date on research and new products of interest to parents who have children with Autism. Click on the link to the right to join.

Please note that if you use a discount coupon you cannot purchase the same item on our Payment Plan program. If you have questions please call our Customer Service Center at 1-888-846-6543.

An article entitled "Reaching for Answers" about studying and treating children with Autism at the University of Missouri's Center for Autistic Disorders was recently published. To see a copy of the article click here.

***************

Many parents who have children with special needs have purchased ionKids products and have found them to be devices that have changed their lives.  We have found that our devices can really help monitor a child (or children) with Autism.  If your child has Autism you know how quickly they move and how rapidly they can disappear from view.  IonKids products can help you keep track of your child so they are safe. 

Some parents have asked that we make adjustments to our devices to make them 100% waterproof.  Please check out our information on waterproofed units by clicking here.

If you have a child with special needs and would like to discuss how ionKids products can help, please feel free to call our CEO, Bob Frank.  Bob is a former school teacher and is very interested in the well-being of children.  He is committed to helping children with Autism or Down Syndrome and will work with you to make the devices as useful as possible.  Bob's email is [email protected].  If you have comments, questions or suggestions please feel free to send them to [email protected].
