PALO ALTO, Calif., Sept. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — A recent study conducted by FUNdamentally Children, an independent, expert accreditation service for children’s products, found that when tonies®, the award-winning audio entertainment system for young kids, becomes a regular part of a child’s life, their attention, reading comprehension, and vocabulary improved. Conducted among families with young children, the results were overwhelmingly positive, with 70% of parents reporting that ongoing engagement with tonies was beneficial for their children1.

Taking place over a 12-week period, 100 children ages 2 to 5 years-old in the United States and the United Kingdom were sent a Toniebox audio player and an assortment of sleep-friendly Tonies to assist parents with their nighttime routine, as well as Tonies from four key learning centers – Discovery, Reading, Mindfulness and Independent Play. The participating families were interviewed after 12 weeks to evaluate the effectiveness of daily tonies usage in the areas of Attention & Engagement, Comprehension and Vocabulary.

Top study findings include:

  • Attention & Engagement
    • 53% of children improved attention rating
    • Reading attention increased by an average of 6%
    • Engagement scores increased by an average of 7%
  • Comprehension
    • 60% of children improved comprehension scores
    • Reading comprehension increased by an average of 13%
  • Vocabulary
    • 66% of children improved their vocabulary level
    • Vocabulary scores increased by an average of 13%

Dr. Amanda Gummer, CEO of FUNdamentally Children and the Good Play Guide comments, “Our comprehensive study revealed that regular engagement with Tonies and the Toniebox not only enhances bedtime routines, but also contributes to cognitive growth, reading comprehension, and strengthened family bonds. This blend of technology, play, and connection has the potential to revolutionize how families approach storytelling and interactive learning.”

Recognized today as the world’s leading audio system for children, parents can be assured that tonies is a proven system that is equal parts engaging and enriching for their kids.
