Families looking for a screen-free way to keep children entertained can now borrow Yoto Mini Players from Kempsey Shire Libraries.
Designed for children aged 3 and up, Yoto Mini Players bring stories, songs, educational content and podcasts to life through easy-to-use audio cards. Children simply insert a card into the player to start listening, making it a fun and independent experience for young readers and listeners.
Unlike many digital devices, Yoto Mini Players are screen-free and feature no microphone, no camera and no ads, giving families a safe and engaging way to enjoy stories at home or on the go. These portable players are designed to support imagination, learning and creativity through audio-based play and storytelling.
Each Yoto Mini kit includes a player and a selection of audio cards featuring nursery rhymes, favourite children’s stories and non-fiction titles. Our library collection currently include well-loved stories such as The Gruffalo and Hairy Maclary, alongside educational and entertaining listens for a range of ages.
This resource offers another way for families to access stories and literacy experiences. They encourage a love of learning while giving children the freedom to choose what they want to listen to.
The players and audio cards are also compact, making them ideal for use by little hands on car trips, during quiet time, bedtime routines or simply enjoying a good story wherever they are.
There are 2 Yoto Mini Players now available to borrow from Kempsey Shire Libraries, subject to availability. Drop in to Kempsey Library and chat to our staff about borrowing one today!
