StoryPhones MP3 Headsets and players enable audio resources to be accessible for all children. Our MP3 players are wire free with rechargeable batteries and can be used anywhere. Our MP3 players can be put into different settings allowing access to audio resources to be personalised to suit children’s individual needs. The loud speaking player can be switch controlled by two devices.
StoryPhones MP3 players are used by children in Special schools and mainstream settings to support the development of speaking and listening, literacy and reading. These schools have also reported that StoryPhones can encourage children's independent learning. Willow Dene School, Greenwich observed that "StoryPhones has increased the use of audio resources. It has allowed staff to personalise the children’s listening and encouraged them to work independently."
