Make Your Own Cards
Make Your Own Cards let you personalize your child’s listening. Link songs, stories, voice recordings, playlists or free Wonder Library content to a card, and your child plays it by tapping the card on the Pod.
What is a Make Your Own Card?
It’s a customizable Wonder Card that links to audio you choose in the MyWonder Parent App. The card doesn’t store audio itself. It connects to a playlist in your child’s library, so the Pod knows what to play when the card is tapped.
Link content to a card
You need an NFC-enabled phone to link cards.
The playlist is now linked to the card.
What happens when my child taps the card?
The first time:
- The Pod recognizes the card.
- It checks the linked playlist.
- It downloads the content, then starts playback.
The first download may take a few minutes, depending on your Wi-Fi speed and the playlist size. After that, playback is instant every time.
Common questions
Does the card work without Wi-Fi?
Yes. Once the content is downloaded to the Pod, it plays offline anytime. Wi-Fi is only needed for the first download and when you update or change the playlist.
Can I change the content later?
Yes. Open the MyWonder app, select or create a playlist, tap Link to Card and hold the card to your phone again. The previous content is replaced automatically.
Can I add my own voice recordings?
Yes. You can upload voice recordings, family messages, bedtime stories and custom songs to make the experience personal for your child.
How much content can one card hold?
The card links to content in your child’s library rather than storing it, but we recommend keeping each playlist under 30 minutes. This keeps the first download quick. You can update or swap playlists anytime.
Can different cards have different playlists?
Yes. Each card works independently, so you could have one for bedtime stories, one for car-ride songs, one for learning games, one for free Wonder Library content and one for family voice notes.
Why does it take a few minutes after tapping?
The first time a card is tapped, the Pod reads the card, downloads the linked playlist and then starts playing. From the second tap on, playback is instant.
