The tonies® team share their New Year’s resolutions

2024, is that you? Here’s how the tonies® team are kicking off their New Year’s resolutions with a little help from their Tonieboxes and Tonies. We think making these goals as a family is a fun activity that you can all do together, so let’s take a look…

The tonies® team share their New Year’s resolutions

Meet Caroline, our Head of Customer Happiness:

More family time

This year, I want to invest in moments that create memories and loads of fun. The busyness of life can often take over and our family time gets put on the back-burner. So, we've decided that every Sunday we will play a fun family game with the Toniebox. There's a few to choose from here but this Sunday we’re planning on doing Musical Hide and Seek, here’s how it goes… 

  • Take it in turns to pop on your favourite Tonie

  • Blindfold the rest of the family and hide the Toniebox in a secret location

  • Once it’s hidden, the seekers can try to find it by listening to the song or story that’s playing 

Meet Polly, our Audio Production Manager:

Staying organised and tidy

Our house looks like a tornado hit after Christmas! The girls have got toys galore and there’s more Tonies than I count. So, my new year’s resolution is to take on a fun DIY project for storing all their Tonies. There’s so many creative IKEA hacks on Instagram like this LUSTIGT Wall Shelf. I’m planning on getting two so it’s big enough for their growing collection and I’m going to get the girls involved in decorating it. They’re going to love the cute little ladders that their Tonies can use.

Meet Katie, our National Account Executive:

Exercise more

This year I want to make working out not feel like a workout! It’s hard to get the motivation to go to the gym when you’ve got a little one in tow so I’ve grabbed Alfie and I the new Burpee Bears Tonie from Joe Wicks and each day we are going to try and follow the quick 10 minute workouts. We’re going to be living our best lives by the time 2025 comes around!

Meet Tova, our European Marketplace Director:

Learn something new every day

Reuben has been obsessed with the Today with tonies Podcast Tonie, so this year I’ve promised that at every breakfast we will sit down and listen together so we can both learn new fun facts everyday and then talk about them afterwards.

Meet Emma, our Senior Copywriter:

Less screen time

We love a new year's resolution in our house and this year we're really trying to work towards healthier screen habits – good luck to us! We find the darker mornings of the spring school term particularly tricky as everyone wants to just veg in front of the TV before school, but instead we're whacking the Today with tonies Podcast Tonie on and starting the day with that and maybe a story and some music while we eat our breakfast, hoping to form some healthier habits on the way.

Amy’s favourite Tonie is Matilda. From a very young age, she was utterly obsessed with Matilda. She watched and read it so many times that she practically had the whole script memorised. As she grew older, she remained just like Matilda, a bookworm, a trickster, and a dreamer!
