This month, children’s audio system tonies is adding four lovable characters to its extensive family of Tonies. Following National Storytelling Week (January 30 – February 6) igniting children’s passion for stories, the new Tonies are sure to keep the fire alight, promising to entertain and educate.

The captured Princess Rapunzel is the latest addition to the Disney tonies collection with the new Tangled Tonie. Follow along on Rapunzel’s journey to freedom with three enchanting songs and the memorable Disney story.

Rapunzel is joined by fellow Disney Princess Tiana, who tells the tale of finding her dreams and ‘the one’. Through audio and song, Tiana’s journey to break the spell she is under will touch young hearts and teach the magic of true love.

Focused on their mission, The Octonauts are accompanied by Captain Barnacles Bear, Lieutenant Kwazii Cat and Medic Peso Penguin, while they explore the deep blue sea. The interactive, fun and entertain songs will transport little ones to the ocean, helping them to learn about the many different creatures that live in the sea.

With the nostalgic favourite 101 Dalmatians, little listeners can join the rescue mission to end Cruella De Vil’s evil plan to dognap the 15 adorable Dalmatian puppies. This action-packed Tonie will immerse children in the chaotic world of Perdita and Pongo’s pups and keep them hooked until the very end.
