On a tangent: Does anyone here have a good solution for self-operated music playback for kids? Suitable for age 2+?
Moving away from physical media has made selecting their own music much more abstract and difficult to manage for kids.
I am aware of the Toniebox (in germany) which operates with NFC-figurines (i guess) which are pretty expensive.
- reaperducer 7y agoGet an old iPod Shuffle from a thrift store. Cheap, durable, tactile.
- m-i-l 7y agoI got a Taf Toys "My First MP3 Player" a few years back. Parents could load a USB stick with MP3s on any PC (including Linux), then plug the stick into a secure compartment on the device (requiring a screwdriver for access, like the battery compartment). Children then had buttons for play, stop, next, previous, volume up, volume down. Only minor issues/features were that the maximum volume was pretty low (presumably to make it safe for babies), and it would switch itself off if no buttons were pressed for a short while (again presumably so it would be safe to leave unattended). Was going to post a link, but it seems it is no longer available.
