Jooki won the Creative Child Awards for its unique screen-free speaker that gives kids safe access to streaming Spotify educational and entertainment-based audio content without the need for adult supervision through pre-programmed figurines and tokens. The Creative Child Awards are given out by Creative Child Magazine, the essential and most complete parenting publication for raising well-balanced children.

With Jooki, sharing favorite playlists and bonding the family with special stories, songs, and music have never been easier. In just a few clicks, parents can associate a Spotify playlist with a Jooki figurine; and then the child can just place the figurine on the speaker to access that playlist.
“We are honored to be recognized with an unprecedented three awards by Creative Child for our Montessori-inspired, award-winning Jooki player that creates a safe environment for children’s creativity to soar, allowing them to explore and learn on their own,” said Christine Brendle, CEO, Jooki.

About Creative Child Awards
The Creative Child Awards is unique in that all products submitted are reviewed by moms, educators, and early education professionals — the very people who would purchase them. Each year, a two-day event is held in Henderson, Nevada, with over 60 guest reviewers. All products are divided into categories and displayed at various stations. Reviewers are then asked to review each product at every station so that each product receives multiple reviews. Based on these scores and comments, products are then selected for the Product, DVD, CD, Book, Game, and Toy of the Year Awards. Only one product per category can win a Toy of the Year award, as well as CD, DVD, Book, and Game of the Year.
The Creative Child Awards are held in conjunction with Creative Child Magazine, a national monthly parenting magazine that expands the definition of creativity by providing originality and spontaneity to parents seeking resources to nurture their child’s creativity. Creative Child Magazine believes that each child should discover what “creativity” means to them. Studies have shown that children who are given this opportunity exhibit a greater ability to learn in other subjects, such as math, reading, and writing and have more confidence as they mature through their adolescent years.
