Product Description

A smart speaker for kids that inspires creative, independent play.

The Yoto Player, Yoto Mini and our huge library of titles open up a whole new world of adventures in audio. As well as your favorite stories from the world’s best-known authors and publishers, kids can delve into sleep sounds, songs, podcasts, radio, mindful meditations and more!

A World of Audio

Explore the world of audio with access to over 1000 titles in our card store of the best content created with children in mind.

Content that Grows with Kids' Minds - Enjoy the longevity of your Yoto Device, from playing white noise for new-borns, to educational activities for when they become toddlers, to classic children's novels for when they're older.

Multiple categories to choose from - Listen to different types of inspiring audio to stimulate children's' minds including stories, music, sounds effect, learning activities, podcasts & radio.

Play free audio in the Yoto App

Beyond our Card Store, there is more great content you can access for free! From kid-friendly podcasts to radio stations from around the world.

Yoto Daily is our own micro podcast. Delivered fresh to your Yoto device each day, it's guaranteed to give you something to laugh to, talk about and take away. You hear it by pressing the right hand button on Yoto Player (once).

Yoto Radio is our in-house radio station that plays an eclectic mix of songs to dance to, singalong with, and help to wind down when the time is right. Listen to it by pressing the right hand button (twice).

A Safe Way to Explore

Yoto lets you introduce your children to a world of audio, so they can explore and develop in a safe environment that’s been built for kids from the ground up.

Family accounts - during set up, you have the option to pair your phone to your Yoto device. This allows you to control features behind the scenes, like setting sleep and wake times

Parents united - when a second parent or guardian then pairs with the same Yoto device, they will join this family account, and both of you can see and play all the cards your family owns, as well as manage device settings

Makes Bedtime a Breeze

Play sleep sounds from the Yoto App to help your kids settle into a good night's sleep. Do your kids want to drift off next to the lapping water of Lake Venados in Argentina? Or maybe they want to relax to the sounds of a campsite in rural France? We've got you covered!

Alarm Clock - Our alarms are perfect for wake up time, time to go to school, bedtime, but they can be useful for other situations too!

Nightlight - The Yoto Player features a nightlight with seven colours to choose from. Simply flip the Player onto its face and the nightlight will switch on.

It is durable and has several functions like playing stories and music , white noise etc.

What I love most about this product is the versatility. My daughter used to always love to watch the iPad in the morning when she was eating breakfast but now she listens to the podcast which is so diverse and different every single day it is included in the purchase with the yoto. The cards that we purchased are great I wish they could be purchased from Amazon without the high shipping fee, but other than that I would highly recommend! Product is very well-made and sturdy. Would definitely recommend getting a cardholder as well.

This is the best gift ever. I bought it for my 5y/o’s birthday and we are all loving this thing. The sleep music is amazing, the yoto music channel, the daily podcast… it’s all just SO well done. Whoever is curating the music is a genius. We had purchased with some extra cards which are nice but on its own the machine is just great. I do wish the nightlight was a little less bright or adjustable but who really cares!

I bought this after seeing the mini Yoto at a friend’s house. This is a larger version but delivers the same high quality experience as the mini. It is compact enough to bring in the car if necessary but also acts as a nightlight in my daughter’s room. She enjoys listening to stories as she relaxes in bed. This was easily set up via home wi-fi. The quality of materials is superb. We also purchased the travel case which is a perfect fit for the player and stores all of the books and chargers in one compact place. Highly recommend!

So far, I’m impressed!

Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2024

Here’s the dilemma with kids these days and access to music and other media - everything is done via Bluetooth, which, for the most part, is controlled by our (adult) devices - which means I can’t be on my phone/device listening to something while my kids listen to something else. And my kids are still very young - they don’t have their own phones, nor, I hope, will they have them for quite some time. Grabbing my device and getting music going for themselves? Ain’t gonna happen. Some might say, what about an Alexa? I dunno, something about my kids having access to an Alexa creeps me out. And it isn’t truly portable.
I honestly debated buying my six year old a CD player so she could have access to and control over her own (somewhat portable) collection of music. But then I started researching the different storytelling devices, like Toniebox, Storypod, and of course, Yoto. Ultimately I decided upon the Yoto because of the radio function, the podcasts/free content, and the price of the cards compared to the price of individual Tonies/similar media.
To start, I bought the Yoto and a pack of five make your own cards. I had fun figuring out how the cards work, but honestly so far my favorite feature is the radio. I love that my kids can have access to kid-appropriate music any time, without my help (or not much anyway.) I don’t have to spend time building lengthy playlists or worrying about explicit lyrics. AND the music is very tolerable, with a genre spanning selection of kid-specific songs and all-ages songs. I was happily dancing along even when my kids weren’t around! Nary a Baby Shark or a CocoMelon to be heard.
Back to the cards - so far my only complaint, and this may not be a universal thing as I’ve only tried it with one podcast so far - even for a long podcast with many episodes, if you link the entire podcast to a card it always starts at the beginning when you insert the card, and you can only switch between episodes, not fast forward or rewind within the episode. This is impossible on a card and difficult within the Yoto app as well. If my kiddo wants to listen to a podcast I will probably load it onto a card one episode at a time, to make it less frustrating for both of us.
Despite that, I’m super excited by the potential of the cards. My daughter is constantly singing and making up her own songs. I’m sure she will love recording herself, recording messages for her sister, etc. And I’m excited to record myself and other family members reading stories or singing songs. I love that the cards are reusable as many times as you want!
The other cards with dedicated media are kind of pricey, in my opinion, but I’m probably going to join the Yoto club…if you get an annual membership the cost per card is less than $5! Pretty sweet.
So I’ve only had this thing a day and my kids haven’t even played with it yet…I’ll definitely return to this review and give an update on how they like it and how practical we find it to be!

We love this. I gave it to my boys (7&5) for Christmas. It’s the 30th and we’ve listened to almost all the free book samplings. My favorite is my 7 year old is asking to hear the rest of old classic chapter books like The Wizard of Oz, chronicles of Narnia, and James and the Giant Peach. I can tell we’ll be investing a lot into this thing, but honestly it’s worth it. It helps them want to go to bed and inspires them to love books.
The daily podcast is so cute. My 5 year old asks to hear the “would you rather” part. They keep it really interesting for kids.
The radio itself has great sound. I’m no sound expert, but it has a really good range and it’s very smooth.
My 5 year old has a British accent now and on our walk the other day he asked “why do people leave their rubbish in the street .” I still can’t stop laughing.

Better of with the Libby app and an old phone

This was recommended to me by a parent at our school. I was even excited to try it for my youngest (7). We've had it less than 24 hours and it's already going back. It wasn't too difficult to set up, but there is a lack of instruction to do so, even through the app once you've set up the basic steps. However, after that, the features just went downhill. It comes with a make your own card so you can download your own podcasts and radio stations. The podcasts tethered to the app are TERRIBLE and, some, extremely inappropriate (Google "a kids book about" the podcast, and see for yourself). You can't delete them from the app so you have to hope it doesn't accidentally get selected by your child. Finding the right link to a podcast your child DOES want to listen to is challenging and time consuming. Tethering your own radio stations is also impossible. I was not able to find a single live stream link that was compatible with the app, so we'd be stuck with kiddie bop. I'm tired of dumbing our kids down and subjecting them to mindless crap. You’re better off downloading the Libby app through your library and listening to all the books there for FREE!

We bought this for our daughter's fourth birthday present, and whilst she likes it, our six year old, nine year old and even our eleven year old love it more.

We bought the Peter Rabbit collection (we have the books and they have been well read over the years), this is a great purchase for the Yoto. Different voices per story, some famous, some not. It's expensive at £30 but has been a big hit so far.

We also bought traditional songs (has a lady bird on the front). These seem a hit with our kids, but they are US songs which don't exactly overlap. Baa Baa Black Sheep is different for example. It's cute though, so we won't send it back.

We have yet to try the personal recordings, this sounds like a fun thing do, have Daddy read some book favourites and have his voice come through the Yoto whilst he's at work!

The Yoto seems like an excellent birthday gift, as a shared gift or otherwise, I'd definitely encourage retiring your screens and getting them kids into this.

You need a WiFi connection to set up stories but after that you don't need it. That's a plus in my book too.

Easy to Use, Lots of music book choices

We purchased this product for our 2.5 year old. She has ASD and echolalia. Music is how she communicates and she is constantly singing. We purchased a yoto so that she could listen to music and control the songs. She figured out how it works within a day. It goes everywhere with us. She used to be constantly wanting a phone to use Spotify but this is definitely helping break that habit and still provide her with the music she craves and the ability to control what she is listening to. It has great sound quality. We will likely buy the mini in the future, but we wanted the full size Yoto to start.

Great! Kids love it. Works great.
And fab that it works of your phone not just the cards.
Also linked straight to my car play so all the features are there ready when on the move.

I admittedly also find myself using it as a portable radio when the kids aren’t about.
