At CES 2019, countless media players will be on display but 'Birdie' stands apart as a first-of-its-kind smart media player for kids.
The smart media player has been specifically developed for preschoolers and supports them in safely choosing everything from audiobooks and music to video content. The interactive, portable media player can be tapped with a compatible chip to play content of a child's choosing—as pre-selected by parents on the companion smartphone app. To further ensure education and safe content, the Australian-designed media streaming player features trusted content from The Wiggles, StoryBots and Counting with Paula, and other leading providers.
The media player is durable, washable and offers a way to get kids engaged and learning without screens or other peripheral devices.
