Spring is one of the best times of the year to pop on an audiobook and listen as you and the family soak up the sunshine coming into your home or gardens! A fact that Yoto agrees with, as they have made a whole host of cards and stories that represent the wonders of this season perfectly! Find out all about them here!

Good Morning Lovelies, 

Growing up, I used to love going to my local library and spending hours laying on my bed reading, as the early sunshine streaks of spring beamed in through my window. Providing me with a sense of pure bliss, those moments have turned into core memories that I will forever cherish. 

As I have gotten older, I still love to embrace those quiet moments with a great novel. Yet, I often find myself turning to audiobooks instead nowadays, which I can pop on and work along too, as I look out my window at the early signs of the season. 

An amazing spring filled story can just make everything better, which is something that the wonders at Yoto know all about. Creating a whole collection dedicated to stories about the season and the holidays we will all be celebrating, they are allowing all of us to fall back in love with this time of year all over again. 

Having listened to a number of them, I thought I would share with you all some of the best stories and cards available at Yoto right now, which are perfect for the upcoming Easter and spring celebrations. Yoto Players at the ready for these…

I truly wish that when I was little that I had had something like a Yoto Player! I know for a fact that I would have taken it everywhere with me, especially when it came to celebrating special moments like those in spring. I would have just loved to have been able to spread all the festive cheer through it. 

If your little one is like me and loves a seasonal story then make sure to check out Yoto’s website for all their festive themed stories and cards! They are perfect for listening too with all the chocolate filled snacks and wonders in your home!
