Toniebox Lite brings fans the tonies experience in a smaller, lighter form

The Toniebox Lite – a more ‘compact lightweight’ take on tonies’ popular audio platform – is on the way.

It will launch first in North America next month, followed by the UK, Australia and New Zealand later this year.

“As parents increasingly seek mindful alternatives to passive screen time, we see a tremendous opportunity to champion the power of listening, spark imagination, foster independence and curiosity,” said Tobias Wann, CEO of tonies.

“To bring the benefits of audio to even more families, we are building a growing ecosystem that for the first time includes multiple devices – each of them designed for different family needs, while being connected by the same trusted world of stories, songs, characters, and play experiences. With Toniebox Lite, we open the door to that world for more families than ever.”

Ginny McCormick, CXO of tonies, added: “Childhood rarely stands still. It unfolds across family vacations, visits with grandparents, and everyday adventures in between. Toniebox Lite’s simple, portable design allows families to bring the tonies experience wherever childhood happens. For existing families, it expands how and where they can enjoy our platform. For new families, it offers an introduction to the benefits of playing, learning, growing up ears-first. And for tonies, it is another step in our mission to shape the future of childhood through listening.”

Toniebox Lite is compatible with all existing Tonies.
