Give a speaker Open your child to a world of discovery through music and audiobooks. They can listen to tunes while they play, share their favorite songs with friends, and hold dance parties in their bedrooms. Story and podcasts will transport them to new worlds, both real and imaginary. And when it’s time to go to bed, they can indulge in soothing sleep sounds, lullabies, or sleep stories. I’ve tried a bunch of different speakers with my kids over the years and have found them to be fun, useful, and a great way to cut down on device time. These are our favorites.
