Tonies are interactive figurines that contain audio content that a Toniebox can play. Each Tonie looks unique and contains stories and songs. When you place the magnetised Tonie on to the Toniebox, your adventure begins. You can also record your own stories onto Creative-Tonies to create your own Tonies adventure!

The Toniebox is especially great for kids with vision impairment and special needs for several key reasons; making the Toniebox a fun, accessible, and engaging tool:

Tactile Design: The Toniebox and its figurines are designed to be highly tactile. Kids can easily feel and recognize the shapes of the figurines, which makes interacting with them intuitive even without relying on sight.
Simple Operation: The controls are minimal and straightforward. To play a story or song, kids only need to place a Tonie figurine on the box. There are no complicated buttons or screens, which makes it accessible for children with low vision.
Auditory Focus: Since the Toniebox is primarily an audio device, it’s perfect for kids with low vision who rely more on sound. The stories, songs, and educational content are presented in clear, high-quality audio, which enhances the experience.
Durability: The soft, padded exterior of the Toniebox makes it safe and easy for children to handle, even for those who might have difficulty with coordination.
Hands-on Learning: The physical interaction with the figurines allows kids to associate specific characters or themes with certain audio content. This combination of physical touch and auditory engagement creates a multisensory learning experience, which can be beneficial for children with visual impairments and special needs.
Personalized Connection: A standout feature is the ability for example relatives to record their own messages and stories, which can then be played through the Toniebox. This provides a personal and emotional connection, allowing children to interact with loved ones in a low vision appropriate way.
