Player (3rd Gen.) - Kids Audio Player, Screen-Free, Ages 3-12

We LOVE Yoto. The sound is so clear. It's small enough that my 2yr can carry it without dropping. My kids listening to Jake daily! It's their favorite thing. They learn fun facts, play cute games, draw alongs, very entertaining and engaging. The podcasts and story cards are endless. The book cards can be a bit pricey. You can also buy make your own and read a story to them or make a read along. Yoto is extremely thoughtful in being parent and kid friendly alike, their app is easy.

Fun, screen-less entertainment. Easy to use and easy to travel. Perfect for listening to music during arts and crafts or snacking.

I've purchased multiple YOTO players and mini players. My grands love them. They range from 2 yrs old to 10 yrs old. They are so easy to operate that my 2 yr old grand can operate it as well. Great value. Does require additional purchases for cards and there are caviots to connecting to the internet.

The Yoto Box has been such a great addition to our home. We previously used a Tonie Box and decided to get this one for our older son, and it’s been a perfect step up. It does take a few minutes to figure out the buttons at first, but once you get the hang of it, the ease of use is great. The overall functionality really stands out, especially with the option for chapter books—my son loves that he can continue listening to Harry Potter. The screen display is a fun and useful bonus, too. We’ve been impressed with the sound quality and loudness, which are both clear and strong enough for everyday listening. The quality and durability feel excellent so far, and it definitely seems built to last. Overall, we absolutely love it and highly recommend it for older kids.

We (as parents) and our kids love the Yoto! There is great variety to the cards, and there are a lot of options for different ages. Our kids use the Yoto for car rides, quiet time, bedtime, etc. The Yoto daily podcast is awesome! It is also nice that there is the Yoto radio with kid appropriate music and the sleep radio for nighttime. These come with the Yoto.

LOVE IT SO MUCH!!! Very good size and battery life is pretty good. We use it everyday! And almost all night for sound machine. My toddler loves it! Hate that the cards can be really expensive. $14.99 for one card is insane. But I still prefer yoto over tonie. (I don’t let my toddler carry it around at his age but I do let him stick the card in.)

I love how you don't need a card to play the books. I can select and start a book from the app on my phone. The night light is awesome! Plus the sleep music and sounds! Awesome selection of books

We love this in our house!!! It is so fun to play a familiar story on the Yoto while we play or cook dinner etc!! Screen free listening and learning. Couldn’t ask for more!!

I had no idea what to expect when we bought this for our 4yo for Christmas 2024. We got the base Yoto Player (3rd Gen) and have been super impressed by what it can do without the purchasing of additional cards. The Yoto Player is essentially a device that plays different kinds of audio content for your kids. You can buy additional cards that play different games and stories. Think of it like buying addition audio books for your Audible account, etc. That said, it's completely usable without buying additional cards and is actually quite high quality. The speaker is surprisingly fantastic, even at the higher volumes. It's incredibly simple for kids to use. There are two orange knobs on the top of the device that let you control volume and what mode it's playing it. One press of the right knob kicks off the free Yoto Daily podcast. Two presses will kick off the Radio mode. The Yoto Daily Podcast has been so much fun for our daughter. Jake, the guy who hosts the daily episode is hilarious and super child friendly. Today we were doing "Jakes Says" (Simon Says) and it was a blast! Every day is filled with some sort of fun, story and trivia, it's wonderful. The Radio is just as great with a choice selection of kid friendly music. The audio books you can often get for free are great too. My daughter loved the Frozen one over Christmas! The battery life is fantastic and will only need a regular charge if the device is running non-stop all day or night. Speaking of nights, it has a nighttime mode you can control via the app on your phone. We use it to play white noise for our daughter which has been great. During this mode it displays the Moon on the pixelated screen (not meant to be a proper display), which helps her remember it's nighttime and not to get up at 2am. You can also turn the device onto its face which turns on a gentle glow backlight to light up the room if that's what you need. Overall, SUPER happy with the device and the ability to control it via mobile app. I can't wait to get some cards and see what else it can do!

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.

The Yoto Player is a must for anyone with kids. There are so many benefits to having a Yoto player - screen free time, fostering creativity and imagination through listening to the audiobooks, great past time, and easy interface. My kids can listen for hours and hours and the battery will last that long. It requires minimal parental supervision as the kids can just turn it on themselves. It’s a great quiet time activity or when they wake up early in the morning and have a bit of down time. I contemplated getting the Yoto mini for travel purposes, but I am glad I got this Yoto player. Although bulkier than the mini, the sound quality is way better and the amount of times I actually wanted to bring the Yoto player somewhere is less than the amount of times they use at home. Although you can buy their cards, the Yoto app makes it easy for you to create your own playlists and just use the one card that comes with the Yoto player. The one thing I would caution is that the volume button can turn the sound quite loud and the kids may be tempted to fiddle with it. However, with a few reminders, my kids soon understand how to adjust it to a reasonable volume.

We absolutely love the Yoto Player! It has completely transformed our kids’ screen time into something more engaging, educational, and imaginative. From the moment we unboxed it, it was clear this device was designed for kids, by people who truly understand kids. Setup was incredibly simple—even our 5-year-old could navigate it with ease. The audio cards are a brilliant idea. Just pop one in, and boom—you're off on a magical journey with stories, music, or educational content. No fiddly screens, no ads, no worries about what your child is being exposed to. It's 100% safe and age-appropriate. The audio quality is excellent, and the night light feature is a beautiful touch. Our little one uses it for bedtime stories and falls asleep listening to gentle music or calming tales. It’s also helped develop our child’s independence; they love being able to choose and play their own cards without needing adult help. What really stands out is the sheer variety of content—beloved classics, new discoveries, even podcasts and radio! And the daily Yoto updates are such a clever way to keep things fresh and exciting. We’ve also had fun recording our own stories onto blank cards, which makes it feel so personal and special. If you’re looking for a screen-free, imagination-boosting alternative that entertains, educates, and empowers your child, the Yoto Player is worth every penny. It’s not just a gadget—it’s an experience. Highly, highly recommended!

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😄
