Unique Parenting Tool, Disguised as a Toy Calling All Parents! Tired of Bedtime Battles & Screen-Time Struggles? “If you want your kids to be intelligent, tell them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, tell them more fairy tales”. -Albert Einstein We are Sami Samiee, Pragnesh Dixit, Sanaz Sabouri and Majid Izadi, and together with our team at Heartoid Ltd., we created ToyPal, a heart-shaped device designed for children aged 3-8 that can be attached to all soft toys and brings them to life. Paired with our AI-powered app, ToyPal as a "parenting tool" allows parents to create highly personalized, screen-free stories for their kids. For kids, it feels like their beloved soft toys are telling them the stories. After a few months of testing and iterating, we are excited to finally launch on Product Hunt! Check this out:
ToyPal allows your child and their favorite soft toy to become the stars of a unique, personalized story anytime. You can also include yourself, family members, friends, and even pets to make each storytelling experience even more magical. 🌟👧👦 One unique parenting feature of ToyPal is the ability to add educational elements, teaching valuable lessons on specific topics or even persuading the kids to do their chores through engaging personalized narratives and storytelling. The ToyPal app “personalizes stories” ensuring kids never tire of the same old tales. Our goal was to create a device that transforms storytelling into magical and unforgettable experiences for children and a powerful tool for parents which harnesses the power of identification in storytelling. In addition the app also supports the creation of “Routines”, enabling parents to set alarms for activities like waking up, brushing teeth, and more by adding phrases and stories to each routine. Whether you want to create quick stories or customized tales to entertain, educate, or persuade your loved ones, ToyPal has got you covered. Up to two children, parents, and other family members can be stars in these delightful stories, ensuring every bedtime is a magical adventure. 📚✨ Here are some of the key features of ToyPal: 📚 Generate unique and personalized stories every night for your child, featuring them as the main character 👨 500+ FREE classics in different categories including Animals, Mythology , Science, Number, Historical Figures, Fairy Tales, Basic Life Skills and many more, with your kid’s name as the main character. 📜 Add an educational or persuasive aspect to the story by adding a moral to teach your child a lesson on a specific topic or to persuade him to do the unwanted tasks 👶 Choose between multiple characters, such as Alien, Unicorn, and more 👮‍♀️🚀 Choose between many genres, such as Humor, Mystery, Superhero, and more 🌎📍Choose where you want the story to take place ✨ Make bedtime a magical and unforgettable experience for both parents and children How does ToyPal work? Attach: Clip ToyPal onto any soft toy. Create: Personalize stories with your child's name, favorite characters, and even family members. Play: Let their cuddly friend narrate the story, sparking imagination and laughter. ToyPal isn't just a toy; it's a partner in your parenting journey. Say goodbye to bedtime battles, picky eaters, and screen-time struggles. ToyPal is the ultimate interactive learning speaker and bedtime storytelling gadget, making parenting easier and more fun.🧚‍♀️🧚‍♂️ Try ToyPal App for FREE now!

@sami_samiee very cool idea. The videos at the bottom, especially when the mom is speaking, were the most compelling part. Have some more feedback for you here:

Congrats on your launch @sami_samiee and the team! This has a lot of potential! I'm curious: can you interact with the toy by giving it voice comands such as "stop", "tell me another story" etc.?

@lumi_nertan Thanks Lumi, your feedback means a lot. No, ToyPal has no Mic or Camera (mostly for privacy reasons), but parent can fully control it using our app

@lumi_nertan Thank you so much! For privacy concerns, we’ve intentionally designed the current version without any microphones or cameras. The focus is on delivering personalized audio stories without any voice interaction. But we appreciate the idea and are always considering future possibilities! 😊

@alexdigitalmkt Thank you so much for your kind words! We're passionate about helping all parents guide their kids through personalized stories. By embedding their child's name in each story, we aim to make parenting more engaging and help instill positive behaviors in a fun and memorable way. 😊
Nathan Covey
@alexdigitalmkt If you want to give a lifelong experience to your kid, YOU should tell them stories. My best memories with my dad are when he used to tell me stories. I don't really think this AI can replace that connection.
Morgane Perrier
Congrats to the team on the launch! Any tool that helps reduce screen time (and makes parenting easier) is welcome. I love that you can use it with a child’s favorite toy, very cool! I do have one question about the personalized stories: Are they unlimited, or is there a monthly limit? Wishing you lots of success, and congrats again on the launch!

@morgane_prr Thank you so much for your kind words. All non-personalized stories are completely free and will remain that way forever! After signing up, you’ll also receive 10 free story creation credits and 20 free story personalization credits to explore personalized storytelling. Once those are used, you can purchase story packages or opt for a subscription plan to continue creating more personalized adventures. Appreciate the well wishes and your thoughtful feedback!

Natalie Ermishina
Such a great idea when parents can create a unique toy for the baby! So, parents can install the fairytales generated with AI only or it is possible to upload any fairytales? Also the feature with routine achievements is cool! Wish you just luck, guys, the gadget is very useful!
Majid Izadi
Maker
@natalie_ermishina Thank you so much for the kind words and well wishes! The device is essentially a kids' Bluetooth speaker, but the real magic happens through the app. Parents can pair the device with their phone and use the app to create highly personalized stories or choose from over 500 free classical stories.

Hey Sami, Pragnesh, Sanaz, and Majid, I'm wondering how you handle privacy and data protection, especially given that it involves children's information? Do you have plans to partner with existing toy brands to create special ToyPal-compatible plush toys? Congrats on the launch!
Sami Samiee
Maker
@kyrylosilin Thanks for your comments and kind support
Majid Izadi
Maker
@kyrylosilin Thank you so much for your thoughtful questions and support! When it comes to privacy and data protection, we take this very seriously. All personalized data, like a child’s name or preferences, is fully controlled by parents through the app. We’ve implemented strict privacy measures, and no personal data is shared or accessible outside of the app. Additionally, ToyPal doesn’t use any cameras or microphones, ensuring a safe and private experience for kids. As for partnerships with existing toy brands, you can say all plush toys are ToyPal-compatible plush toys, as ToyPal and it's patent-pending locking mechanism can be attached to any soft toy, no matter the size or design. Thanks again for your kind words! 😊

Morgane Granier
This is such a smart and sweet product! I don't have kids but I think I would have loved to interact with my favorite toys like this. And for the parents I guess it's a real game changer to "upgrade" their kids toys rather than buying new fancy expensive ones 😂
Majid Izadi
Maker
@morgane_glt Exactly! ToyPal is designed to grow with the kids, making it a timeless addition to their toys. No more buying new toys that only last for a week before they lose interest! It’s meant to be gifted, educational, and fun.
Trent Kennelly
I love the use of storytelling in this toy! Really there isn't a lot of uniqueness in the toy space these days (save screen-related things) so this is amazing! Very well done.
Majid Izadi
Maker
@trent_kennelly Thanks Trent for your kind words, we wanted to bring something truly unique to the toy space, especially as a screen-free option, so it means a lot to hear your appreciation for it. Your support is incredibly encouraging!
Dan Robins
Nice idea - I love how this means that it's possible to bring our kid's EXISTING favourite toys to life, rather than having to buy new ones.
Majid Izadi
Maker
@dan_robins Thank you! We're so glad you love the idea. Exactly, one of the key goals was to let parents bring their own toys to life, making it even more personal and meaningful without needing to buy something new. Your feedback means a lot to us! 😊

Congrats on the launch @m4jiz ! Toypal would have been so useful for me when I was a child, this might become an essential tool for parents ! A question though, do Toypal adapt its stories to the child's age ?
Majid Izadi
Maker
@brijs Thank you so much! We're so glad you love the idea of ToyPal. Yes, ToyPal does adapt its stories based on the child’s age, along with their name, gender, and preferences. Every story is highly personalized to ensure an engaging and age-appropriate experience for each child.
