Does this toy exist? Play songs without watching video (not CD player)

I may be looking for something that doesn’t exist here...does anyone know of some kind of music playing device that a 3-4 year old could operate, where it’s easy for them to choose specific songs (mainly Disney). Found a kids CD player secondhand but DD is always asking for the CDs to be changed and has scratched two of them. She also gets really frustrated with not knowing which song is which number and wants something she can operate herself. iPad with YouTube is not an option as that’s what we currently use but she now knows there are videos that accompany the songs and just wants to sit and watch it, rather than having it on in the background/dancing.

Sorry if this isn’t making much sense, I’m very sleep deprived!!!

Do you mean like an iPod where you can just have loads of songs downloaded?

would an alexa device work? Dots are quite cheap.

My dd (now 10) had something called a SweetPea mp3-player when she was around 3yo (I bought it online from the US). It was easy for her to operate but IIRC a bit fiddly for me to transfer music to it via the computer. I would imagine that their updated products would be more user-friendly though. I found the website here:

Orange a bit like an iPod, but cheaper!!!

I’ll have a look at other sweet pea / iPod type things and hadn’t thought of Alexa - thanks Walker and vikjul

Does Alexa listen to household conversations? Don’t know how I feel about that...!
