Both had nagging concerns around the effects of excess screen time for young children, with potential negatives around sleep disruption, fine motor control development and addictiveness of screens making them think twice about putting kids in front of a screen. Having enrolled his children at a Montessori nursery, he was also fascinated by the teachings of Maria Montessori. She believed (amongst other things) that child development was improved through allowing children certain levels of independence, and to place emphasis on using physical objects in learning and play. Despite all of this, they actually both are technophiles and big believers in the power of the internet and tech as a force for good. Screens aren’t always bad! Also, having met whilst working together in the digital music world, they really wanted to give their kids easy access to music and other audio content. So they came up with the idea of a connected, screen-free audio device that kids could be fully in control of using physical smartcards. With no experience in hardware, electronics or industrial design, but liking the idea of a challenge, they got to work prototyping a basic device and started testing with their own families and friends. Age Yoto Mini is suitable for kids aged 6+. Our Card Store has 1,000+ titles for kids from birth to 12+ so your kids will always discover new audio to inspire them as they grow.
