The Yoto Mini Player has been a staple in our home for years. My kids (ages 6, 4, and 2) use it every single day—multiple times a day. In fact, we have three!
As a mom, I love having stories readily available for my kids. Books and storytelling are something I can always say “yes” to, and audiobooks are no exception. That’s why the Yoto Mini Player has been such a game-changer for our family.
What is a Yoto Player?
The Yoto Player is a simple, screen-free audio player designed for kids. Just insert an audio card into the top, then use the two knobs to control volume and skip chapters. It’s incredibly easy for little ones to use independently!
There are two models: the full-size Yoto Player and the Yoto Mini. At our shop—and in my own home—we carry only the Mini.
Why Do We Love the Yoto Player?
- It encourages quiet time. My kids will happily build with Magna-Tiles or color at the table while listening to a story, giving me a chance to enjoy some quiet time too.
- It fosters a love for audiobooks. I love engaging with good stories through audio, and now my kids get to experience that as well.
- It’s kid-friendly and independent. I appreciate any tool that allows my kids to entertain themselves without needing constant help.
- It makes a great gift. New audio cards are the perfect birthday or holiday present!
- It’s perfect for travel. The compact size and easy-to-use design make it great for flights and long car rides. My kids each have a pair of over-ear headphones, so they can listen comfortably on the go.
