If they were on the slightly younger side in particular? I had such high hopes for Yoto, my son loves reading, and being read stories plus any with songs were a huge bonus. He's 2 and a half, so I appreciate slightly under the recommended age but has pretty much worked out how to use it with ease although seems to be struggling without anything visual.
I'm not sure how best to encourage him apart from sitting, talking, singing along with him. I purposely bought it for the car as we have a long drive in a weeks time I want to avoid the usual meltdowns.
Please share your tips so I haven't just poured a load of money down the drain 😵💫

It's a device for them to grow into...
Use the tidy up timers, tooth brush timers etc.
The MYO cards are great - we put stickers on ours to reflect the content.
DD is currently keen on Peppa Pig, so has a pig sticker on one, where were downloaded the audio from BorrowBox through the local library... Next week, the card might be Peter Rabbit or Hairy Maclary.... DD likes choosing the stickers for them

@wubwubwubwub fair point... I suppose they wouldn't have the apparent longevity if it was too much of a gimic for toddlers.

He did get him to to have a listen today, he's decided monkey puzzle and snail and the whale are the ones he likes so I'm trying to encourage them whilst we eat breakfast etc.
