In addition to microphones, there are also plush cuddly toys that are equipped with a voice recording function, so that mum or dad can, for example, record sweet messages and the child can therefore sleep peacefully.

What can children learn from voice recording toys?
Technical toys sometimes require a bit of research, which can be good for a child's development.
They can find out all the functions of the toy by experimenting with it.
By singing songs through a microphone, children learn the lyrics of these songs, which can be good for their vocabulary.
Singing and talking promote speech development.
In addition, children build up quite a bit of self-confidence when they jump and dance their favorite songs through the microphone, and then listen back.
Kids can put on a show for friends and family thanks to microphones and karaoke sets!
A child can also improve his sense of rhythm by means of music.
Furthermore, a microphone or other toys with which they can record their voice makes children curious.
During development it is important to continue to arouse a child's curiosity and to expose him to, among other things, technical toys.
Research has shown that technical learning early in development is often linked to success at a later age.
We will highlight below some popular products that allow a child to record their voice.

What apps are there for kids to record their voice?
Nowadays kids also play a lot of games on the computer. For example, there are apps that can be downloaded with which your child can record his voice and that do not require any equipment or toys.
Peek-a-boo Barn
A good example of such an app is the Peek-a-boo Barn.
Sweet farm animals are waiting for you! If you tap on the doors, you can find out which animals they are.
Thanks to the app, your child will be able to learn the names of animals and the sounds they make.
Children will also learn what cause and effect are: by opening the doors they understand that they are seeing an animal.
Animals can also be guessed by sound. They are the perfect activities to develop reading and writing skills.
The app comes with built-in voice recording function.
This makes playing on the farm extra fun, because all friends or family members can record their voice and play the star in Peekaboo Barn.
So you can record the animal names with your own voice, or with the voice of your grandfather. You can save everything you have recorded.
The app can be set in different languages, and you can also choose between a child and adult voice.
Singing and recording karaoke
Then there is also an app, the “sing & record karaoke”App, which is totally awesome for kids (or adults!) Who love to sing and perform.
With the app you have the option to sing all your favorite songs, with the fun sound effects. And all without a microphone or karaoke set!

The app is suitable for older children who can read and write and know how a smartphone works.

Conclusion
Toys with voice recording function not only provide a lot of fun.
It's also part of a child's development: playing with tech toys will give your child an edge.
It is very important that the toy catches the child's attention so that it does not have to be forced to play with it.
The child will explore for himself and a world will open up for him.
In the case of slightly older children, microphones or karaoke sets with recording function can give children the opportunity to test their voice, learn songs, develop a sense of rhythm, and boost their confidence.
If they like to be in front of an audience at a young age, it might mean a career in music later on!
