There’s a product with a similar UX for audio books called a Yoto Box https://us.yotoplay.com/ It’s very popular in Charlotte Mason homeschool circles

Looks like fun and educational toy, interesting find. But why the mention of it being popular in homeschooling circles? Mentioning that in the same context makes it seem like you're not recommending the product because of that :P

  • I didn't read that connotation into it, but maybe in your social circles people have a problem with homeschooling?

      In general I think it's a very American thing, and considering the education problem the US suffers from, probably explains a part of that. Most other countries have very limited amount of homeschooling even allowed, because of all the drawbacks with it.

    Good point, it was superfluous info. It's how I found out about it

Recently bought a Yoto Mini and quite happy with it. Remember to buy the blank cards.
