Orange ๐ ยท Fruit Turtle no.6 of 6
Hi, I'm Orange, your Get Me Home turtle
Peace of mind for little adventures โ a tiny, useful charm that quietly helps your child when they need it most.
My job: shows the home address
Home address card
For young children who don't yet know their address. A tap shows the home address along with a quick line โ 'Please help me get home' โ and a parent's number. Particularly loved by parents of pre-schoolers.
For Parents
Setting up your orange turtle
Takes about three minutes. You'll need a free app and your phone.
1

Write โ Add a record.For orange turtles, choose:
Text โ your home address plus a brief note: "Please help me get home. I live at [address]. Call [parent] on [number]."
3
Tap your turtle to write
Tap
Write in the app, then hold the turtle flat against the back of your phone for a few seconds. You'll hear a beep when it's done. Remove your phone case if the read is slow โ these chips are small (8mm).
4
Test it, then lock it
Tap your turtle again to check it does what you wanted. Once you're sure it's right, you can use NFC Tools'
Other โ Lock tag feature to make it permanent โ nobody can accidentally overwrite it. This step is one-way, so only lock when you're certain.
An honest note: NFC tags only work when a phone touches them โ they don't track location, send alerts on their own, or work over distance. Think of them as a tiny, friendly emergency card sewn into a keychain.

A reward app, made for these turtles.
We're building a small, calm reward app where children tap their turtle to log everyday wins โ tidying up, brushing teeth, helping out โ and earn stars, streaks and small treats agreed with their grown-up. Be the first to try it.
โ You're on the list. We'll be in touch.
