Fortelja

Your child's own stories — told in their own voice.

Fortelja is a screen-free wooden storyteller box. Children create and record their own stories — and you can turn them into a real keepsake book you treasure forever.

We'll let you know when Fortelja launches. No spam.

Screen-free. No subscription. Truly yours.

Where other toys are either a screen or a subscription, Fortelja is neither. Your child places a little wooden figure on top of the box and tells their own story — together with you, or all by themselves. The box records it, so it can be heard again anytime.

A memory you keep forever.

What your child makes doesn't disappear. Any story can become a real, printed book — in your child's own words and drawings. A piece of childhood, in your hands.

And when the stories are told …

Fortelja also plays audiobooks, fairy tales and calm bedtime sounds — and can wake your child gently in the morning with a warm light. One beautiful box, all day long.
