My Project

According to Google, Tonies have many different learning concepts. For example, they are a type of interactive storytelling:“Tonies figures activate stories and songs on the Toniebox, allowing children to actively participate in the narrative by choosing which character or story they want to listen to. “

Additionally, they promote Imagination Development.

“The audio format encourages children to visualize the story in their minds, promoting creative thinking and imaginative play. “

Thirdly, they promote Language Skills Enhancement: “Exposure to rich language through stories and songs helps build vocabulary and comprehension skills.”

Next, they are Screen-Free Entertainment:

“Unlike digital screens, Tonies provide a tactile experience with physical figures, promoting a healthier engagement with media. “

Then, they promote Independent Play:

“Children can easily operate the Toniebox on their own, fostering autonomy and confidence. “

In conclusion, Tonies can create Teacher- Child Bonding:”Listening to Tonies together can create a shared experience and opportunity for interaction between teacher and child.
