We love Yoto Mini and after 8 months of using one so often we bought another so the kids have one each. Absolutely no regrets. We will have to wait and see but with the range of cards available and the simple aesthetics, I feel there is longevity in this product.” However, the original Yoto is really great if you’re looking for one tool to do a bunch of features. Being able to use one device for both entertainment and sleep training is pretty special.

Everything about the Yoto Mini is smaller, and that’s the main difference. The Yoto Mini is meant to be handheld even for little bitty hands. The box is 1.57 x 2.76 x 2.76 inches and only 9.6 ounces; whereas the original Yoto is a bulkier 4.3 x 4.3 x 4 inches and weighs 2.4 pounds. Another difference is how it’s charged. The original Yoto sits on a special charger; whereas the Yoto Mini uses a standard USB-C, making it easier to juice up anywhere you go (including the car). Looking for a safe, fun and easy-to-use audio player for young children? The Yoto Mini could be just what you need. With its simple design and range of age-appropriate content, the device is designed with little ones in mind. If you’ve got a voracious reader who is into chapter books, you can scoop up cards like the Secret Garden, Anne of Green Gables, the Magic Treehouse Collection, or any of the Roald Dahl books. Using The Yoto App The cards are like heavy duty credit cards, and they hold stories and music. You can buy excellent cards for any age group from toddlers up through about age 12. In fact, I even wrote a post about all our favorite Yoto cards for each age group.I absolutely LOVE the Yoto Mini. If you’re trying to decide between an original Yoto and a Yoto Mini, I’d probably choose the Mini, unless you’re super excited about the sleep training and nightlight features on the original model. I can’t overstate how nice it is that the Mini uses a standard USB-C charger, too! Update: She’s now 9 and listens to her Yoto Mini regularly, especially when she gets gifted a new chapter book. I think any older children would enjoy a Yoto, but especially those who don’t already use screens at home.
The Yoto Mini gets charged with a USB-C cable, and then it will hold a charge for 18-20 hours, depending on whether or not you’re using WiFi with it. Yoto Mini’s Sound Quality A Yoto Mini is a screen-free smart speaker designed for children. It's a small, colourful device that can be used to play a variety of audio, including music, stories, and educational content. The device is controlled using physical cards that are inserted into a slot at the top of the player - each card represents a different story, music collection, activity, podcast or radio station. The Yoto Mini also has built-in WiFi connectivity, which allows it to access additional content from the Yoto app.The number one favorite toy in our household used to be the Yotooriginal audio player. I loved it so much that I wrote an entire Yoto player reviewabout it. And then I wrote another post about our favorite Yoto cards, too! (Spoiler – While we love all our cards, my favorites are the blank cards!) The player comes highly recommended by Mumsnetters - often mentioned in discussions about the best toys for two-year-olds and three-year-olds. But with parents’ smartphones able to play audiobooks and kid-friendly music, is it really worth investing in a piece of tech specifically for young children?
