What it does
A dynamic daily playlist of animal facts. All the content and facts are written by the maker, his wife Sarah and his daughters Alice and Izzy, and narrated by Alice. The audio served changes depending on the time of day and where you are listening.
Add the free version (7 days of facts) to your library, then play it through the Yoto app or link it to a MYO card to listen on a Yoto Player. The full version (over 100 facts) is in the Yoto Club Collection in the Discover tab of the Yoto app, as part of a trial being run by Yoto.
Awarded the Yoto Panel Prize as part of the 2025 Developer Challenge. The maker hosts the application himself, and says the full version helps support the ongoing costs of running it.
