Did you know? Tel Aviv-Yafo has 13 beaches stretching from the Herzliya border in the north to the Bat-Yam border in the south, with a length of 13.5 kilometers, attracting thousands of people from Israel and around the world during the summer months. Rental of beach facilities over the years was done through the franchisees of the beaches' restaurants. In recent years, a decision was made by the municipality to stop the provision of service in this format, with the aim of reducing the costs to the beaches. The municipality decided to take on the issue of coastal facilities and to maintain them independently without external operators. The new prices for bathing in the beaches and for the holders of Digitel in particular are significantly cheaper than most beaches in the State of Israel.

This creates a fun way to motivate them—for example, to clean their room. If your child collects 10 hearts on their watch, they might earn a reward, like a trip to the movies. The app has been specially designed to allow watch management directly from your phone. As a parent, you can decide how much freedom to give your child, which will likely depend on their age.
