Ok, I consider myself a reasonably intelligent person...but I'm utterly failing to understand how to up/download my own tracks to the creative tonie. Like if i used their stuff, I get that. But otherwise? Any help is appreciated!

Than screen recording on my iPhone while I play the story at a normal speed then transferring? This takes forever

Just something I was thinking about -- I have a friend whose grandmother has moderate Alzheimer's -- like she has to be looked after but isnt at the point of needing specialized care. The fam is already pretty brilliant with their care of grandma, who used to be a major reader but can't focus anymore, so they got a bunch of well illustrated children's books on topics she's interested in (Bible stories, animals, local history). When my friend saw my son listen to his tonie box, she said she thought her grandma would really like tonies bc they're so easy to use and she could listen to music and stories independently (she suspects Grandma is losing the ability to read the children's books, unfortunately, but she still enjoys the pictures).

Has anyone considered tonies for memory care patients? They're simple to use and calming -- obviously you could make creatives for your relatives in need of memory care, but it would also be pretty dope if there was a line for people suffering from dementia that had westerns, musicals, and simple stories adults would be interested in (my grandad also has dementia and he used to LOVE Amish romance novels, for example).

I dunno, just something I was thinking about. Probably would be nice for people with severe intellectual disabilities, too.

My toddler loves his Tonies, which are all mostly music/song Tonies. We love reading books as well, we read several hours a day. I want to start getting storytime/interactive Tonies for his age, any suggestions?

So I’ve looked at a few; for example the Brown Bear, Brown Bear Tonie, and it just seems to be the Brown Bear series with Spanish versions. We love that series but the cost doesnt seem to justify the content and runtime. I live in Asia and shipping can cost a lot (not all Tonies seem to be on Amazon) so I have to ship to a MyUS mailbox then ship it here sometimes if they’re not on Amazon.

Out of all his Tonies, the only non-pure music ones are Ms Rachel, Elmo & Tango, and Cookie Monster and he enjoys those especially Ms Rachel and Cookie Monster.

Here’s what we have: Ms Rachel, Elmo & Tango, Cookie Monster, Dorothy the Dinosaur, Caspar Babypants, Laurie Berkner 2, Classical Music Rabbit, Disney Lullabies, Doggyland, Animal Songs Pig, Bedtime Songs Cat, Celebration Songs Squirrel, Playtime Songs Puppy, Traveling Songs Mouse, Counting Songs Fox, Children’s Songs Squirrel

I play some audiobooks from Alexa Kids but he’s not into that. Though the ones I’ve played for him so far do sound monotonous. So I’m looking for storytime AND interactive Tonies for his age that are fun and engaging. For example, is the Blue’s Clues one like the Ms Rachel and Sesame Street ones where they’re a mix of songs and interactivity, where he can answer questions? Is The Very Hungry Caterpillar Tonie worth it if he loves the book or is it redundant? He also loves Finding Nemo (the only movie he has watched) but I’ve read not-so-good things about the Tonie.

Most of the story Tonies seem to be for 3+ but I’m just wondering if any of you found good ones that your under-2 enjoyed

Thank you!

Hi all! I’m a musical theatre /musical movie nerd and got the singer creative Tonie, hoping to make a “Greatest Hits” for my daughter. I’d love to hear your suggestions. Please offer not only the song, but the specific recording (artist, version, etc).

My “must-haves” so far:
- “Do-Re-Mi” and “I Have Confidence”- Julie Andrews (movie soundtrack)
- “Never Never Land” and “I’m Flying”- Mary Martin (Peter Pan movie)
- “Phantom of the Opera” with Sierra Boggess / Royal Albert Hall
- “If I Loved You” with Jesse Mueller (2018 Broadway cast)

My kids love the following tonies:
James and the giant peach
Charlie and the chocolate factory
The witches
Wizard of Oz
Balto

Basically, they are really into the longer, story tonies. Any recommendations on ones to get that are similar?

Maybe this is a stupid question, but I haven’t been able to figure it out. Why are there things available on the website that aren’t showing up on the app? For example the Christmas bundle is on the website, but not the app. Not a big deal, but sometimes I forget to check the actual website when browsing. 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

Has anyone seen any new info on the pokemon Tonies? They announced summer 2026 but I haven’t heard anything new.

i saw all this big talk that it was one of the best music tonies. i got it on clearance…wow. i had yet to buy a tonie i wanted to throw away but that’s changed now. anyone else not like it?!

We are heading to Japan soon and planned to take my son’s Tonie box with him. I know the charger has the appropriate size prongs (no grounding prong) that the USA charger will fit into a Japanese socket, but I’m curious if the voltage is an issue. Anyone have any experience using their North American Toniebox charger in Japan? TIA.

My almost 6 year old loves chapter books and still loves his toniebox but I wish there was a creative tonie with a longer time limit so I could combine the two. For example, we’ve been reading the Wild Robot series and I found an audiobook of the first one but it’s more than 4 hours long so that won’t fit on a 90 minute tonie. I know they can make longer ones because the Roald Dahl book tonies are all pretty long but there’s no creative version of this. Just shouting into the void about it!

A local acquaintance mentioned that some tonies were being discontinued. I was wondering if anyone knew which ones and why? Will they still be available through the Tonie site or amazon?

Delete if not allowed. Is there a tonies buy sell trade? My kiddo is just not into them at all so I hurt buying more to try and see if he’ll like any thing else.
