Kids become DJs and play Spotify playlists with cute little characters in the form of figurines
Wednesday, May 2, 2018 — MuuseLabs, the Brussels-based Belgian startup, announced today the release of Spotify on Jooki – the smart music player for kids. The wonderful partnership of Jooki with Spotify with its millions of titles for any age gives to parents an unlimited musical choice to create the perfect playlists for their children. Children recognize the playlists in the form of cute little figurine characters.
“There is something truly magical in popping a character on Jooki to start a Spotify playlist. It plays instantly. And it’s so easy for parents to link the playlists.” explains Theodore Marescaux, CEO of MuuseLabs. “We want to make face to face communication the centre of the family again and without screens. Music is great because it sparks emotions. The partnership with Spotify brings this ambition to a whole new level.”
Spotify with Jooki, how does it work?
Jooki works with Spotify Premium and Spotify Premium for Family accounts.
All parents have to do is open the Spotify app and their Jooki is automatically recognized. They start a Spotify playlist, select Jooki in "Devices available" and – boom, the music is playing on Jooki! Parents use Jooki app to link the playlist to a character. Done. No more smartphone needed, kids can use the character figurines or tokens to trigger the Spotify playlist at any moment they like.
