# Quick start

## Before you begin

For the best first experience, we recommend you:

* Fully charge your MyWonder Pod before first use. See [Charge your Pod](/charging).
* Connect the Pod to a strong, stable Wi-Fi network using the MyWonder Parent App. A good connection means faster responses and richer interactions.
* Set the volume to a comfortable level for your child.
* Sit with your child and explore the first Learning Companions and Listening Cards together.

> **Tip**
>
> Children learn best when a parent joins them during the first few interactions.
