Put it on the shoulder strap, not in the bottom of the pack. A pea whistle can freeze. A pealess one is the usual pick. Teach kids what three blasts means and when not to practice it.

Who should buy it. Everyone.

Best for. Making noise when you are not where you planned

Standout limitation. Not a locator
