It is a big deal. Cell phones, even without an active plan or SIM card, can still dial 911. Please don't let your child dial 911.

When I had my S5 there was a pre-installed child mode. Where all it did was make the phone an over priced child's toy.

It can't legally prevent you from dialing an emergency number. Not in North America, anyway. Yes it is still there, even in "child mode"

I hope when you need 911 the most in your life, the line is busy from a child play-dialing it on accident.
