Tonies
Tonies are an imagination driven, screen free digital experience for little listeners. Turn it on, pop a Tonie on top, and let the adventure begin!
Tonie Kits come with the Toniebox player, charging cord, one figurine, and instructions.
Additional Tonies are available for checkout. Ask staff for assistance or explore the collection in our catalog under Children’s Audiobooks.
Please note: Lost Toniebox will be billed to your library account in the amount of $80, a lost charger $15, or a lost figurine $15.
The Toniebox is a soft, screen-free speaker for children. Using magnetic figurines called Tonies, toddlers and young children can navigate storytelling, music, and guided activities independently. It is a kid-safe media platform filled with content from premium partners including National Geographic, Penguin Random House, and LeVar Burton.

Designed just for kids ages 3 and up, the Toniebox is a great companion for independent play. The controls are designed with little listeners (and little hands) in mind, so kids can easily adjust volume, fast forward, rewind and change stories all on their own.
- Squeeze an ear to raise or lower the volume.
- Tap the sides to change chapters or tilt to fast-forward or rewind.
- Even swapping stories is simple. Just place a different Tonie on the box to begin a new adventure!
Tonies checked out from the library can be used without wi-fi. If you are using a personal Toniebox, you must be connected to wi-fi.
The Tonie Kits are available at the Downtown Library, but can be placed on hold and picked up at any of the Metro Libraries.
Each kit includes one Tonie, but additional characters can be checked out from a staff station. Please ask for assistance.
Each Tonie Kit and additional Tonies check out for three weeks.
