The book like audio stories allow children to select their stories and listen autonomously, and without screens. With numerous awards, children and parents alike love how Voxblock has replaced screen-time, allowing children to be in charge of their listening within a safe environment. Parents Tom and Rebecca were inspired to create Voxblock when they realised how much their daughter loved audio, but struggled to use tape players. Simplicity of use is at the heart of what we do. The player is easy to use with a long battery life meaning children are in charge of what they listen to and when. Each story lives on a beautifully designed block, which slots into the player. You can pause or switch blocks at any time, returning to where you left off. Introducing Voxblock, the kids audio book player, that makes .

Love this; great stories, screen free & no Internet!
Absolutely 100% love this - we've already got a Voxblock for our daughter who uses it all the time, so bought this as a present ("best present ever!") It won't be the last!! It's amazing; the kids love it as it's totally their thing, super easy to use (even for a 3 year old) and they are in control. The stories are fab and enjoyable for grownups too! (Obviously can be used with headphones too for peace and quiet, but fun to listen together as well!) Love that it doesn't need WiFi or any form of Internet connection, makes it perfect for taking out and about. And the benefits of screen-free entertainment can't be overstated! I get so much done now: kids will ask for their Voxblock to listen to while they draw or bring it into their dens with their dolls and they're just having a great time while listening to stories - also great for language development to be honest, and so much better than screen based stuff. Love, love, love it and can't recommend enough. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Easy for kids to use
Really good for bedtime. My son can listen while he is calming down at bedtime, then goes to sleep with no problems. It's very easy to use, good quality player. Comes with 3 books, now need to look for more.

Happy so far
Looks impressive. Very sturdy. Haven't used yet as bought for Xmas. Unfortunately not alot of titles available on amazon and company doesn't ship direct to Ireland so a pricy investment with limited books. Contacted company directly, got quick response to say they are looking into both issues and hope to move forward with them soon. Looking forward to using it, I think it's something my kids will love

Brilliant player
Long lasting battery life, great selection of audio books and excellent customer service! Both my kids love their Vox Blocks. My eldest (8yo) had a tonies box before that but it arrived with the head jack not working and because I purchased through a sparks christmas promo I couldn't get a replacement as Tonies UK and Sparks kept sending me back and forth to each other. My daughter says Voxblock feels more grown up compared to a Tonies box and it's also easy for my 3 year old to use and carry.

A WONDERFUL find! So well designed (and can be used easily by a child...)
I think this is such a fun idea for a product, essentially a digital storybook reader with story blocks (i.e. digital “cassettes”) that you can play on the device. As a child, I had something similar - literal cassettes that came with accompanying books - that I spent countless hours replaying.I suppose you might be wondering if you really need a dedicated storybook reader, particularly as you can achieve the same effect by simply playing audiobooks on a phone or tablet which would be a lot cheaper. The device requires investment after all, not just for the player but for the library of stories you will need to purchase for your child...So, here’s my view: the Voxblock is a completely fuss-free, ready-in-seconds reader that’s actually a joy to use. You literally switch it on, place your chosen story on top (it’s magnetised so it’s as swift and seamless as can be, to lift on/off) and it’ll start playing immediately. That means a child can operate it independently without an adult. It's portable and doesn’t need WiFi or Bluetooth.Importantly, I think Voxblock already has a large library of stories that cover a broad age range so if you invest in it for a toddler, they can still carry on using it as teens. The other thing is, the books in our Roald Dahl set are read wonderfully by famous names - e.g. the very charismatic David Tennant and funny man Romesh Ranganathan - so you know the stories are going to be engaging and well received by your children.Honestly, I was sceptical myself about whether we really needed a story reader but it’s the Voxblock system you’re investing in here and I do think it’s a high quality device that’s been well designed to deliver - both to parents and to eager kiddies. I don’t know if all the books are going to be the same calibre as the Roald Dahl ones so it’s worth having a look at the available library at Voxblock; there's a full archive (contemporary and classic fiction as well as some non-fiction) along with audio previews for the books. Anyway, a big thumbs up from me!

Nice concept for screenless stories
I got the Roald Dahl stories with the orange reader bundle.The idea behind this is that you just sit the magnetic cardboard 'books' (not actual mini books as we thought they might be) as they have a chip in them and then the reader will read that book chip.I found the unit itself just a little bit too heavy which might be an issue for younger children but fine if it's resting against something. I know as an adult how even holding my phone up for a while can take it's toll on the arms and this doesn't have a stand on the back.I'm guessing it's that size and on purpose but for travelling (especially taking all the little books) it can end up being quite bulky.I do really like the general idea of it though ie no screen time, fun changeable blocks of books that you can swap over with picture covers and easy to press buttons. It does just feel a tad overpriced for what is essentially a speaker. And the sound without earphones is a bit tinny.The quality is nice and the colours around the outside of it is bright so appealing to kids.It would also be good to be able to add a holder for this so you can keep the unit and at least a couple of books together in one place rather than the cardboard holder it comes in.Overall it's a nice set for a gift and I like that you can get free audio books with collecting tokens and the poster that comes with it of all the other books available is visually appealing and nice to be able to buy extra ones for presents going forward.
