A daily fave
I got this for my little girl’s third birthday and it is her absolute favorite. She loves the different stories and the songs. It’s very calm perfect for any time of the day during any activity.

The product features a mix of positive and negative feedback. While the stories and narration are praised as enjoyable and educational, many customers are critical of the songs, describing them as poor quality. Some also found the introductory monologue to be boring and frustrating for their children. Overall, the product seems to be a mixed experience, with the quality of the songs being a significant drawback.

Great and engaging
My little boy loves this one, I read the reviews, and see it has been updated. No long intro others have mentioned. The stories are short as in the book, they have sound effects. The songs are ok, definitely not as bad as some people have made out (or they've been improved) my boy loves the caterpillar one. The facts section seems engaging enough to hold his attention and he's been regurgitating the information to me, learning about topics. He loves it.
Best tonies
One of my daughter’s favourite tonies it’s super long has loads of stories. She loves the songs
Great!
This is great & my 17 month old loves it. You get 3 stories, the 3 stories in song form & facts about animals - really impressed with how much is included.
Great story
I bought this for my son and he absolutely loves it.
Fantastic tonie
The story telling is lovely, the songs are funky and make us laugh/ sing along. There are some interesting facts, so plenty of variety for little ones. (Is it Ross Noble I am listening to?!!) My son falls asleep halfway through if we listen at bedtime, so depends what you want from your Tonie! I recommend!!
Hilarious songs. Lots of fun facts for young kids
My daughter is 2 years and 3 months old and she loves this Tonie. The songs are hilarious, we all sing and dance along. It also includes a lot of fun facts about spiders and crickets. The only issue with this Tonie is that once the British narrator finishes narrating all of Eric Carle's books, then an American narrator starts narrating the same story all over again. How strange and unnecessary.
Repetitive but super fun
The tonie goes through a cycle of story to song to story to song of the same things three times which could be seen as frustrating but as my son really loves this series of works, it’s no bother fo him.
Lovely little story.
My daughter really enjoys the story of the Hungry Caterpillar. This means she can listen to story by herself. The songs are good fun too.
Great
My kids love this. My son falls asleep to this one more than any others. He loves the songs too, some hate for them on here but we love them. Cheesy but seriously catchy.
Bad singing
Though it it’s longer with more content, the silver are basically spoken by a guy with a northern accent rather than actually sung and I think they are just the story to music which kinda sucks. Definitely don’t recommend for babies, maybe for older kids. Informative with lots of great learning
So bad
This is my least favourite tonie. The singing is terrible and the content is just meh. Regretful purchase, unfortunately can't return it.
Great selection of stories
Love the fresh take on a classic and plenty of content to keep your little ones busy
A favourite !
My little one loves this Tonie! I’ve seen some bad comments about the songs. They’re just the story to music. It makes it easy to remember the words! They do get stuck in your head !
Disappointed
The credits and introductions about the author are far too long and truly unnecessary for a 3-4 year old listening to this. My daughter does not like this Toni because it takes too long to get to a song or story because of the introductions. I would have not purchased this if I knew there were these lengthy credits.
