Storypod

Storypod takes a unique approach with its Craftie characters - soft plush toys that trigger audio content when placed on the pod. This dual-use design means kids get both an audio player and cuddly toys. The content focuses on educational audio including phonics, counting, and language learning. Build quality is solid with child-safe materials. The subscription service ($7.99/mo) unlocks additional content. Crafties are washable, a practical touch for young kids. Less brand recognition than Yoto or Toniebox but growing community. Good choice for families wanting combined toy/audio value.
