Creating your own Yoto card is a fun way to personalize the Yoto Player with your favorite stories, music, or messages. Here’s a simple guide to help you make a Yoto card: ### **What You Need:** 1. **Yoto Player:** The device where you’ll use the card. 2. **Blank Yoto Cards:** You can order these from the Yoto website or certain retailers. 3. **QR Code or Custom Content:** Decide what you want your card to play (a story, song, or message). 4. **Yoto App or Online Account:** To program your custom card. ### **Steps to Make a Yoto Card:** 1. **Log Into Your Yoto Account:** - Open the Yoto app on your tablet or phone, or go to the Yoto website and sign in to your account. 2. **Create New Content:** - In the app or website, look for an option like “Create” or “Add Content.” - Choose the type of content you want (e.g., upload your own audio, select a podcast, or use a TTS feature to create a spoken message). 3. **Generate a QR Code:** - Once you’ve created your content, the system will generate a unique QR code for your custom card. - This QR code links the physical card to the content you created. 4. **Print or Order Your Blank Card:** - If you have blank Yoto cards, you can print the QR code onto a card. - Alternatively, you can order pre-made blank cards from Yoto and stick the QR code on them yourself. 5. **Load the QR Code onto the Card:** - Use a printer to print the QR code onto a sticker and place it on the blank Yoto card. - Make sure the QR code is clear and not obstructed by other designs. 6. **Test Your Card:** - Place the new Yoto card on the Yoto Player. - The player should recognize the card and start playing your custom content. - If it doesn’t work, check that the QR code is correctly placed and not damaged. 7. **Decorate Your Card (Optional):** - Get creative! Decorate the card with drawings, stickers, or other artwork to make it special. ### **Tips:** - **Backup Your Content:** Keep a copy of your audio files or messages in case you need to reprint the card. - **Use High-Quality Printing:** Ensure the QR code is clear and not blurry so the Yoto Player can easily scan it. - **Explore Yoto Creators:** Visit the Yoto Creators section for more ideas and advanced customization options. ### **Conclusion:** Making your own Yoto card is easy and adds a personal touch to the Yoto Player. Whether you want to create bedtime stories, favorite songs, or special messages, following these steps will help you design and enjoy your custom Yoto card in no time!
