Yoto Brown Bear & Friends by Bill Martin Jr. & Eric Carle – Kids Audio Card for Use with Player & Mini All-in-1 Audio Device, Screen-Free Listening with Playtime Bedtime & Travel Stories, Ages 2+

Okay, Yoto Brown Bear & Friends—let’s talk about how this is a literal lifesaver for my toddler (and for me). First of all, if you’ve ever tried to read the same book 17 times in a row without losing your mind, you’ll understand the genius of this little Yoto card. It’s a life-changing hack for getting your kid to actually engage with a book while you, ya know, exist as a person.The combination of Bill Martin Jr.'s classic story and Eric Carle's signature art style is like a nostalgic hug for me while also keeping my toddler captivated with bright, fun illustrations and the rhythmic, repetitive text. It's simple, but that’s why it works! My little one can almost read along (or at least pretend), and I can feel like I’m raising a little literary genius.Now, the best part? The Yoto player is totally hands-off for me—once we’ve loaded the card, I can sit back, sip my lukewarm coffee, and bask in the peace while Brown Bear and friends do their thing. Plus, it’s such a win when my kiddo repeats "Brown bear, brown bear, what do you see?" like it’s the best thing they’ve ever heard, while I daydream about a world where coffee stays hot for longer than 10 minutes.In short: if you're a busy mom trying to keep some semblance of your sanity while introducing your kid to the world of books, this is your new best friend. Thanks, Yoto, for turning yet another re-read of a beloved classic into something I can survive.

This card is great. It's wonderful for little people wanted to settle down and hear about animals. Its a calm and relaxing card.

This is such a fun Yoto card with beautiful narration backed by peaceful music, the interview with Eric Carle was a fun bonus I didn't even know was on here when I bought it. And the stories are all told in English and Spanish, which could be fun for kids learning either of those languages.

Interactive. Kids love the rhythm, pictures and interaction.

Santa brought my grandson a Yoto for Christmas, he loves it at nap and bedtime. The story cards are reasonable and the variety is good.

My granddaughters enjoy the stories

English versions read by gweneth Paltrow. I would do the voices differently but it’s fun to hear how she embodies each character. Used as part of a ritual before nap time to ready my toddler for sleep but now the stories put me to sleep, haha! Helpful it links to phone app so you can play wherever if naptime happens away from home.

My son loves the Brown Bear book and has already memorized so I wanted to surprise him with this Yoto card. He absolutely loves it and constantly chooses it over other Audio Cards. I recommend this for toddlers under 3 years old, after that they might need something a little less slow.
