Yoto Player (3rd Gen.) + Make Your Own Card – Kids Bluetooth Audio Speaker, All-in-1 Screen-Free Device for Stories Music Podcasts Radio White Noise Thermometer Nightlight Ok-to-wake Alarm Clock

My 5 YO loves the Yoto player, it's a great way to create immersive fun. As it's not a screen and lacks anything that requires too much attention the kids can listen excitedly about whats happening, great way to integrate clocks and learning. The daily news can be a range of funny jokes, interesting facts and many other positive & fun chats.We love the Tidy up timer and of course the dailys with Jake! My 5 YO is excited for tidying up, listening and cuddling in while having a laugh from some jokes. The cards are great too, a very simplistic idea that again brings what's usually electronic/digital into a physical format which is wonderful for hands on kids and creating a 'screen free' time.It also has a night light function that we use alongside soothing sleepy sounds, all in a neat & rugged little package that looks both sleek modern & discreet.The Yoto in general is very positive product, I genuinely feel it has been catered to the correct needs of our children keepings things fun and interesting whilst not feeling 'boring'. It's a joy to have in the house and I enjoy playing the guessing games with Jake too😄

I am so excited with this amazing little cube! I had initially been looking online for something that would provide my 8 year old son with a clock, a night light and the ability to play some music and relaxation sounds before bed when I stumbled across this gem. I had been sceptical at first that perhaps my son, who adores his books and is already a confident free reader, was now a bit too old for a story player. But then I realised that this is SO much more than an audio player and now that I have explored it myself, setting it up for his birthday, I am SO excited for him to receive it. This product will ignite a new enthusiasm for bedtime reading and I know that it will encourage him to want to explore and engage with new stories and learning, and combined with all the other functions it has to offer, it will be the perfect addition to his bedroom.Things to note:-Arrival of item and packaging are absolutely spot on. Opening up the product and following the simple instructions for set up was smooth and enjoyable. There is an App to download that syncs in with the yoto.-You can set the times of the daytime/ nighttime display mode so it is essentially like a 'gro' clock too! You can even set an alarm!-There are even free yoto radio stations and sleep sounds which I particularly love!-There is a card provided with the yoto player which gives you clear instructions on how to use the player with a list of top tips. This card can then be used as a make your own card and you can download your own content to play!-The variety of cards to purchase is amazing and there is something for every age group including fiction, non fiction, music and educational.

I had been dithering about buying one of these for a while as I wasn't sure if it would be a bit too young for my son, even though it says suitable for up to age 12. However I needn't have worried as he absolutely loves it. While he can read on his own, and we make a point of reading together every evening, he also really enjoys putting on his favourite stories and just relaxing listening to them.I was also really impressed with how wide the selection of cards available was, including a good range of educational ones and music. He is currently enjoying the Horrible Histories selection. He also likes the radio and podcasts.Another reviewer mentioned that they had used their player for car journeys, which I hadn't thought of. We took it with us this weekend when we had a long drive and found it really useful.Another plus point is that it doubles as a night light / alarm clock, allowing us to replace his Gro clock which was on its last legs.My only slight gripe is that the cards are relatively pricey, but they do make good presents from relatives.

My son and daughter absolutely LOVE their YOTO. Easy to set up and start using within minutes. The large buttons at the top make it easy for the kids to navigate the volume, lights, YOTO daily and the radio. They enjoy listening to Jake each day which is fun and engaging, they particularly love Sausage Fridays! The radio is easy listening that turns into soothing tunes at nighttime, which my daughter enjoys falling asleep to. The variety of cards to choose from is fantastic, from funny stories, factual card, reading books, inspirational people and much more. The cards are easy to insert and when not in use compact to store nearly in a card holder. I love everything about this little box, its a brilliant audio box that has enriched my children’s lives with its variety and ability to bring spoken word to life.

Without doubt one of the best gifts for any child, boy or girl from 0-12yo. A totally secure environment for children! Buy story cards, make your own story cards (blank cards are around £13 for 5 from Argos), listen to child safe podcasts, radio and much much more! Paul McCartney is an investor!

does what it says, but the stories are a bit boring, the narration is very dull, not what expect for kids. paw patrol for instance has maybe 8 characters,and theres 1 man doing all voices. For me it needs some life and maybe 2 or 4 people doing the parts.

We have a daughter with dyslexia and the audio stories have inspired her to read again. It is easy to use and our children are able to use it independently. They have made their own stories with the blank Yoto cards and they play them back and act them out! The screen is clear and the clock function is useful. I love the Bluetooth and night features. I would definitely recommend this.
