Yoto, the interactive audio platform for kids and creator of the critically acclaimed and award-winning Yoto Player and Yoto Mini, has announced its growing partnership with Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial, expanding its Spanish content to include ten new titles. To align with customer demand and diversify its content library, Yoto’s Spanish digital cards are largely offered in Latin American Spanish. Some are also available in Castilian Spanish.
Yoto’s digital cards provide listeners with the opportunity to access quality audio content quickly. The launch of these new titles will help Yoto gauge demand and determine which digital cards will be made into physical cards in the future. Families also have the ability to link digital cards to ‘Make Your Own Cards,’ giving children the ability to listen independently of the Yoto App.
“Diversity and inclusion within children’s content is imperative, especially through storytelling. We pride ourselves on continually expanding our offerings to match that of our audience, which is why we’ve added these new Spanish titles to our library,” states Ben Drury, CEO and Co-Founder of Yoto. “With our ever-growing audience, we are committed to ensuring the Yoto library includes a broad range of languages, ethnicities and experiences for families around the world.”
“We are excited to expand our partnership with Yoto to offer some of our most beloved productions to new children’s audiences around the world, who will be able to enjoy stories of the highest quality in their own language and different regional accents,” said Ángela Álvarez, Audiobook Director at Penguin Random House Grupo Editorial. “Through Yoto, our audiobooks will help children establish valuable connections with literature and the pleasure of reading”.
To date, there are 11 physical Spanish cards and 11 digital Spanish cards available in the Yoto library, with plans to introduce more titles over the course of 2023. The current library includes English, French and Spanish.
The Yoto Player and Yoto Mini are available to purchase for $99.99 and $69.99, respectively. For more information about the Players, and additional offerings, please visit www.yotoplay.com.
