If your kids enjoy storytime but like to go off on their own to read, then StoryPhones could be just the device to take their joy for storytelling to a whole new level.
StoryPhones are an award-winning smart headphone for kids that offer screen-free entertainment, providing a magical and educational audio experience for young listeners.
An independent device, StoryPhones are the world's first smart, portable, wireless audio entertainment device for children.
StoryPhones were borne out of a dedication to bringing families together by bridging generational gaps through the timeless act of storytelling.
Paired with a focus on creativity, reduced screen time, and enriching audio experiences, these headphones provide delightful entertainment for children as they grow.
Take stories on-the-go
These engaging headphones are portable, making them an easy and convenient option for kids to bring the fun with them wherever they go, whether it's to a different room in the house, the backyard to play, or in the car on a roadtrip with the family.
StoryShields allows the listener to pop a shield into the StoryPhones. When they do this, the story automatically downloads into the headphone's memory, allowing offline playback, so wherever your little ones go, their story goes with them.
This unique feature promotes creativity, decreases screen time without taking away the fun, and fosters a love for audio content.
Easy to operate
As with anything, ease of use is crucial.
StoryPhones are extremely easy to operate.
The StoryShields are small enough to handle and pop into place magnetically, which means your twins will be able to switch out StoryShields easily and control their tales with the built-in play, pause, and stop buttons.
Being able to download and take the story wherever they go means no more fighting over the same story because each of your kids will have their own copy on their StoryPhones.
On the flip side, if your twins want to dig into storytime simultaneously but don't want to read the same story, this also solves that problem, as they can pop in a StoryShield for whatever story they want to hear and listen to their stories separately.
Bring imagination to life
With innovative engineering, StoryPhones encourage the enjoyment of storytelling—the oldest form of entertainment.
With this device, users of all ages can access an incredible library of carefully curated content, including audio stories, music, and more.
The makers of StoryPhones, ONANOFF, collaborated with renowned leaders in storytelling, from LingoKids and Sony Music, to Pinna, to offer content that provides listeners with a captivating and educational experience for children.
Suitable for children aged three and up, StoryPhones' rich library includes ongoing collaborations with Disney to build an enchanting collection of magical stories featuring iconic Disney characters, like Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, The Little Mermaid, Lion King, Disney and Pixar's Toy Story, Monsters Inc., and more.
The vast collection of stories means there will always be titles that interest your children as they grow and their literary tastes evolve.
Record personalized stories
What's really interesting about these headphones is they give users the ability to record personalized stories through the mobile app, creating a customized StoryShield called PlayShield.
This feature allows friends or family members to record stories, maintaining a connection with their loved ones, even if they live far away.
Say your children's grandma and grandpa live in another country. With PlayShield, your little ones would still be able to hear a bedtime story read in their voices.
This unique feature means users can share family stories from one generation to the next, whether they live up the street or across the continent.
Encourage relaxation
StoryPhones also include a ZenShield, which features relaxing audio to help kids who may be overstimulated to calm down, relax, and sleep.
Limiting screen time on smart devices can help your children sleep better and improve their ability to focus at school.
With high-fidelity soothing sounds ranging from calming piano melodies, ocean waves, and the device's exclusive RoRo Sound (which mimics a real heartbeat and breathing), the ZenShield contributes to the well-being of young listeners.
Enhance learning capabilities
By providing an alternative to screen-based entertainment, StoryPhones contribute to improved sleep and focus for children.
Listening to stories enhances learning capabilities, with 85 percent of learning taking place through listening.
According to the Audio Publishers Association, audio content increases reading accuracy by 52 percent, improves comprehension by 76 percent, and boosts motivation by 67 percent.
Award-winning technology
With their unique characteristics, technology, and usage scenarios, StoryPhones has received two Consumer Electronics Show Innovation Awards in each of the Headphones & Personal Audio and Health & Wellness categories.
Recognizing ONANOFF's commitment to safety, StoryPhones has also received the prestigious Silver Award at the EU Product Safety Awards for protecting vulnerable consumer groups.
Kid-safe audio levels
These smart headphones are also safe for little ears. They have built-in volume-limiting circuitry, which protects kids' hearing.
With a kid-proof safety mechanism to use in quiet, normal, and loud environments, StoryPhones are capped at 75 decibels, 85 decibels, and 94 decibels.
