MP3 player for kids

Hi. My DD7 enjoys listening to music and I’d like to get her an MP3 player. I only really listen to music via Spotify now and I’m struggling to find an MP3 player that you can listen via/download music from Spotify to. Does anyone know of anything? I’ve seen the Mighty but that is very expensive, very small (so it’ll get lost) and the reviews aren’t great. I’ve seen another one on Amazon that has wi-fi and has Spotify but it looks very much like a phone (even though it isn’t) which I’m not keen on. The others that don’t look like a phone don’t seem to have wi-fi but they do have Bluetooth but I don’t think I could download from Spotify via Bluetooth.

That way you can add a Spotify account from your profile

I got this Majority one for my daughter for her 11th birthday and she absolutely loves it. It's on special at Amazon right now. Good review in Tech Radar www.techradar.com/audio/portable-media-players/majority-mp3-player-review

Stupid question but how do you put music on to it as it looks like it only has Bluetooth and not wi-fi?

Thanks. I don’t really want to give her an old iPhone as I feel that even uninstalling everything, it’s still a phone.

It takes an SD card so you can load files onto there via a computer or just connect it to a computer via an USB-C wire

Can you transfer from Spotify on your computer to the MP3 player? I didn’t think you could do this on Spotify.

No don't think you can. You'll need to download MP3 albums from something like Amazon

@BringbackCDs Did you manage to find anything? I’m looking for the same thing for my DD. Sony do one for around £350 😮

I bought an innioasis one from Amazon, it was about £50. It has Spotify kids on and very few other apps (no general internet access etc) so it does what I wanted it to do. The sound quality is ok, not amazing. Only thing I realised after I bought it is that you can’t easily update the apps that are on it (e.g an updated version of the Spotify kids app). I think it is possible to update by connecting to a computer but it’s beyond my technical skill I think!
