Yoto Mini (2024 Edition) - Kids Travel Audio Player, Screen-Free, Ages 3-12

I bought the Yoto Mini so my daughter could have something to listen to instead of using a phone, and it’s been such a great decision. She’s only 1, but she already loves music and just listening to different sounds and stories, and this is perfect for that. It arrived in great condition and was packaged really well. The sound quality honestly surprised me—it gets pretty loud while still being clear, which is great when she’s playing or moving around. It’s super easy to use, durable, and just a really nice way to introduce independent listening without screens. Definitely happy with this purchase and would recommend! The value for the money was well worth, battery life lasts a few days, the size is perfect for travel and has been very durable considering we’ve dropped it a couple with a protective case. It hasn’t changed anything. Super customizable online once you get a hang of it. You can also add/change icons!

I purchased the Yoto Mini (2024 Edition) with the Make Your Own Card as a gift for my granddaughter, and it has been an absolute hit. She absolutely loves this mini version, and I couldn't be happier with the purchase. The compact size is perfect for little hands and makes it easy to take along on car rides, trips, or simply move from room to room. Despite its smaller size, it offers all the wonderful features that make Yoto products so special. One of my favorite aspects is that it provides engaging entertainment without relying on a screen. It's refreshing to find something that encourages imagination, listening skills, and independent play without adding more screen time. The Make Your Own Card feature is another fantastic addition. Being able to personalize content makes the experience even more special and allows for endless possibilities tailored to your child's interests. The quality of the device is excellent, it's easy for children to use, and it has quickly become one of my granddaughter's favorite gifts. I truly can't recommend the Yoto Mini enough. If you're looking for a thoughtful, educational, and fun gift for a child, this is an outstanding choice.

Excellent gift for kids who are addicted to screens. Helps them use their imagination. Also wonderful for the blind, with the use of their NFC cards you can create playlists, stories, sound effects, white Noise for sleeping, you name it. Just about anything with audio that can be recorded on one of the cards using the app can be played, also you can pretty much use any card and overwrite, once it's in your library you can rewrite it to the card over and over again. Great way to introduce kids to a concept similar to old cassette technology while keeping it fun and compact

Absolutely wonderful purchase. My kiddo takes this thing all over. We use it A LOT un our family because we are writers, producers, and musicians. Our kiddo has all our originals on it. His grandma even reads stories to him and records them on her cell phone. She sends us the file and we upload them to our kiddos yoto. A great way to keep things connected as family, heart warming, and clean and safe. Not a fan of a lot of the cards available. In our opinion, they're junky things and shouldn't be exposed to kiddos. Yoto has the potential of being a great learning tool and it has great settings you can monitor and set as a parent to keep your kiddo safe. Including, but not limited to, volume settings, hours allowed, and even fun timers, on the app, to brush their teeth. And JAKE on Yoto is a FANTASTIC host for Yoto daily and makes a lot of fun for the kids.

My child will not put this down! They love this toy and it has met and exceeded all expectations. They love the agency they have to select stories, change volume, and listen on headphones or not. My child is five and it's very simple for them to use the toy. They rarely need help from us, usually just to plug it in to charge. The device comes with more features than I initially expected as well, such as the free content like soundscapes and radio. I also love the write your own card feature! I will be recommending this to every parent I know. 100 percent worth the money.

The Yoto Mini (2024 Edition) is hands-down one of the best purchases I’ve made for my kids. It’s compact, durable, and incredibly easy for little ones to use independently. The physical audio cards are a genius idea—my kids love popping them in and exploring stories, music, and educational content without needing a screen. The sound quality is surprisingly good for such a small device, and the 14-hour battery life means it lasts through long car rides or quiet afternoons at home. I also appreciate the thoughtful features like the pixel display, headphone jack, and the OK-to-wake clock. It’s clear this was designed with both kids and parents in mind. At around $99, it’s a solid investment. You’re not just buying a speaker—you’re getting a whole ecosystem of content that grows with your child. The included “Make Your Own” card adds even more value, letting us personalize the experience with our own recordings. If you're looking for a screen-free, engaging, and educational device for your child, the Yoto Mini is worth every penny!

My son loves this toy! I love that it’s screen free, easy to take on the go, and I can make my own cards easily! I love the options of educational content especially brain bots! We upgraded to this after the tonibox!

Ok, so I just have to say, this is probably one of the greatest things we have ever gotten as parents to a 2 year old. I tell my husband, if we ever have another baby, I'll only ask people for more cloth diapers, and one more yoto mini. Lol Seriously. I wanted to initially reduce TV time, which this does significantly. You don't need to be super crazy tech savvy. But some tips, it is hard for me to upload audio through the app, so either on my phone or tablet I need to use the web browser to upload audio to the playlists. The audio just takes forever or crashes or stops uploading often through the app itself. Getting audio content is easy. The only yoto cards you need are the Make Your Own cards. Those will grow with your child forever as you can change the content whenever you want instead of buying specific cards you can't write over. I also print stickers of the songs or story covers, cut and paste to the MYO cards so my toddler can easily identify them and choose what she wants to listen to. At first I thought the yoto mini player would be too hard for her to understand and use, but it literally took her 2 days and she was listening to whatever she wanted, learning to raise and lower the volume etc. Kids are so smart. You can download audio from books, from YouTube, from all kinds of websites like the Internet Archive, and it's just never ending you have so many options. Our daughter is bilingual, so even if it is a painstaking process, I put in order her songs and audios to have the same episode in Spanish, followed by English sharing the same custom icon, all throughout her entire custom made playlists. It can take a while to make them exactly how you like, but it is so worth seeing how happy and bright they get. She can look for the icon on the little screen to find a certain song or story she wants, and she knows the first one is always Spanish and second is English. My husband is also amazed at the Yoto and how versatile they are. She even has Bible stories, biblical scriptures, a card where I read books in both languages, Bluey songs and episodes, Super Simple in eng/spa, etc. We're just so pleased. Thanks Yoto! She takes it everywhere: to the store, in the car, on walks, everywhere. I can see her as a teenager one day with her custom content changing with her as she grows.

Perfect for screen-free entertainment. We've had ours since the age of 2 and my son can change the cards by himself.

Lettore MP3 per bambini stupendo. Facile e intuitivo da usare. Mia figlia di quasi 5 anni lo ha usato da subito in autonomia senza che avessi il tempo di spiegarle come funziona. Arriva con una scheda vuota che potete riempire di vostri contenuti audio ( musica, audiolibri, vostre letture ad alta voce). È giusto un poco complicato da settare inizialmente in quanto non è in italiano ma basta cercare online e si trovano tutorial rendendolo semplice. Necessita di connessione o wifi di casa o hotspot per scaricare i contenuti salvati sul vostro account yoto e poi collegati alle card ma questo solo la prima volta che si carica il nuovo contenuto, dopodiché funziona senza connessione anche se si cambia scheda. Prezzo un pochino caro ma in linea con i lettori sullo stesso genere. Bellissimo il fatto di poter ascoltare da altoparlante o tramite cuffie bluetooth o cuffie con cavo aux, nonché la possibilità di regolare il volume anche attraverso l' app per lo smartphone.

I bought this for my 5 year old son for Christmas & it’s already a lovely staple of our day. It’s such a cool design, with great audio, cute little pictures to accompany each story & easy usability for his little hands. He chooses his story card, puts it in & changes the volume. And it settles him & his big brother (8) to sleep really quickly! It also has a lot of content (daily kids podcasts, millions of other podcasts, yoto kids radio & other playlists that you can listen to via the parent controlled yoto app) that you can listen to aswell, for free! We especially love the make your own cards, it’s such a sweet feature- my Dad who lives far away has made a playlist of stories, so my kids can have their grandad read them a bedtime story as often as they like. I would highly recommend, for kids aged 3-10!

These are so fantastic. My daughter was just over 4 when she got hers and it is such a go-to item for her now. It is particularly helpful for extra bedtime stories, or just gentle lullabies when having trouble getting back to sleep. The nighttime settings that allow volume limits and sleep/awake times are so cool. She knows it's morning when the sun shows on the screen. Just all round a lovely product. Great for car trips too!

My granddaughter loves her Yoto player, so I bought her the mini for travel. She used it on the plane, during road trips and at the hotel. Perfect size for the little one, easy to use and well constructed for children's use. Her parents are super happy as the Yoto mini kept her occupied during the long plane and road travel, and provided entertainment without screen time. Very happy with this purchase. The price was the same as the Yoto site, but delivery was much faster with Amazon - the next day.
