Secure one or more hörberts for your daycare or care facility quickly now.
UP TO AND INCLUDING JULY 13, 2022, HÖRBERT IS AVAILABLE FROM AN UNBEATABLE 199 EUR INSTEAD OF 249 EUR!
By simply listening to stories and songs in German or other languages through the high-quality speaker, children’s listening skills are developed. Listening a lot is known to promote both language ability and listening skills. With hörbert, this is achieved playfully.
With the built-in speech microphone, educators and children can record individual words or entire sentences. The children can listen to these, repeat what they heard, and record themselves. By listening and comparing the words, one can best recognize what can be improved.
hörbert also offers the option to play podcasts via internet radio URL and receive internet radio stations, provided a 2.4 GHz WiFi is available. If that is not the case, no problem. In that case, hörbert can be taken to a place where it is possible and the internet radio stream can be recorded during the podcast using hörbert’s recording function. This way, the content can subsequently be accessed “offline” from the desired colorful button. In this way, educational programs can also be integrated into the daycare routine, e.g. podcasts from “The Show with the Mouse” or similar. Educators can thus easily and quickly convey up-to-date knowledge to the children.
The hörbert memory card “Kunterbunt” from Esslinger Helbling Verlag contains songs from all over the world. The first and further verses are sung in the respective foreign language followed by a literal German translation.
But also the memory card editions Luftballon and Pusteblume from the publisher “Die 30 Besten” with 9 playlists tailored to the daycare routine are popular with daycare customers. Dance and movement songs, gymnastics songs, lullabies, motivational songs, kindergarten stories… there is something for every situation.
Of course, the memory card edition “JANOSCH” is also a perennial favorite. The language of the audio plays is particularly engaging, and the JANOSCH stories are true classics for children.
Even for creating your own compilation of songs and stories. On each playlist, any number of own titles can be stored using hörbert software at home or on the daycare computer. The memory card has space for up to 100 hours of audio content!
For example, from existing CDs if one has the ability to read CDs. Children navigate through the nine playlists quite easily and intuitively by repeatedly clicking on the respective colorful button. This is already feasible even for very young children from two years old, and reading skills are not necessary. Or one can simply let the playlist run through. It then starts again from the beginning. Using the integrated sleep timer, hörbert can also automatically turn off after a desired playback duration. hörbert also offers Bluetooth audio functions. Thus, it can be connected to up to two wireless headphones or play Bluetooth streams and playlists from a phone or tablet. The Bluetooth streams can simultaneously—just like internet radio—also be recorded so that they are subsequently available “offline” from one of hörbert’s colorful buttons.
hörbert is already indispensable in the daily routine of many daycares.
Whether for language support, in the cuddle corner, the gym, the garden, or mobile on the handcart during the weekly forest day or walk—hörbert handles everything.
There are also barrier-free models of hörbert for children with disabilities.
For example, a barrier-free hörbert has three giant buttons or a built-in jack so that external control buttons, so-called “Jelly Buttons”, can be connected in the daycare. This way, even children with motor and/or cognitive disabilities can switch on hörbert on their own and select their favorite songs and stories.
