It has been especially helpful for children who need a quiet break from the classroom— they can put on their headphones, take a moment for themselves, and enjoy a story. The Toniebox has also sparked their excitement for reading. They love discovering which new story is waiting for them each day, and I'm able to record our story of the week so they can revisit it independently.
