What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026
Each Talking Tin lets you record a short spoken message and play it back with one press of a large, tactile button, so an object can "say" what it is. The kit comes with three tins, plus magnetic adaptors with self-adhesive pads and elastic straps, so you can attach them to steel food cans, other metal objects, or items that need a strap. They work as talking labels or reminders at home or in the classroom, and the big button is easy to find by touch. Standard recording time is 10 seconds, and the yellow and red versions record 20 and 40 seconds. Two record buttons help prevent accidentally recording over a message.
