It’s the perfect time to start your holiday shopping, and we’ve found some great deals on Tonies that make excellent gifts for the little ones on your list this year. Currently, you can save $40 on the Toniebox 2 starter set or save $30 on a standalone box.
The Toniebox 2 is a screen-free audio player for kids. It includes interactive games, fun music and a built-in sunrise alarm clock. We’ve also found deals on fun Tonies to add to your child’s collection this holiday season if they already have a Toniebox.
The Toniebox 2 is designed for kids ages 1 and up. They can independently turn on or change the music by putting their chosen Tonies character in the designated space at the top of the audio player. The $100 starter set includes the Playtime Puppy character, with a compilation of traditional children’s songs such as Itsy Bitsy Spider and Old MacDonald Had a Farm.
Tonies is also having a 25% off sitewide sale on the brand website, where you can pick up extra characters for your child’s Toniebox. There are holiday-themed audio characters along with popular characters from Paw Patrol, Disney movies and more.
The Toniebox 2 earned a spot on our list of the best toy gifts for kids in 2025, and CNET Perspectives Contributor Deenie Hartzog-Mislock named the Toniebox 2 as one of her top ten tech gifts this year, calling the audio box “a lifesaver” for entertaining her young children while minimizing screen time. She also noted that the updated version of the Toniebox includes a bedtime and a wake-up alarm, which her daughter loves.
