Curadio · Kids' Audio & Stories

A listening world children actually want to live in.

Curadio is an audio-first storytelling product for kids. We shaped the experience, built a brand the whole family loves, and wired the integrations that keep stories playing.

The story

Screen-free stories that spark a child's imagination.

Parents worry about screen time; Curadio bet on audio - stories that fire up imagination without a screen to stare at. But a beautiful idea needs an experience a five-year-old can navigate alone and a parent can trust completely.

We designed CuraLand, built a brand around a panda kids instantly adore, and integrated the streaming, profiles and content that keep the stories flowing. Four months in, listeners had logged over 10,000 sessions.

Problem identified

Three things an audio product for kids has to nail.

01
A UX for kids who can't read yet

Tiny hands, no text. Navigation had to work through pictures, colour and sound - clear enough for a pre-reader to explore on their own.

The challenge
If they can't read, they still have to find it.
Our solution

Make it lovable. Make it effortless.

We built CuraLand - a picture-led, audio-first interface a child can run alone - and a panda mascot that carries the brand from app to hoodie. Underneath, the integrations handle streaming, profiles and content so the experience just plays.

"Easy enough for a five-year-old. Trusted enough for their parents."
Make it lovable. Make it effortless.

UX & website

CuraLand - an interface a child can run alone.

Big, colourful tap targets, picture-led navigation and a calm, clutter-free home. Every screen was designed for little hands and short attention spans - and a marketing site that wins the parent in one scroll.

What families said

The real review is bedtime.

My daughter navigates it herself - and asks for the panda by name.
