VAPPEBY speaker connects via Bluetooth to a device like a phone or tablet where the music streams. ”This means that the child doesn’t use a screen. We know many parents want to limit children's screen time, and this speaker puts all focus on the music.” The sound is connected to a light effect that causes the light on the speaker to pulsate with different colours in sync with the music. Just like a classic disco lamp!

The clear and distinct sound is perfect company when your child wants to dance to their favourite music or listen to a bedtime story.
Connect and play your favourite tunes from your phone, computer or any other Bluetooth®-enabled device.
The speaker comes in a package with a playful pattern, save it and reuse it to store things like children's toys.
A strap makes it simple to carry the speaker, which encourages your child to play and move around.

Simple to charge since the speaker just needs to be placed on the included charging plate – and always charges no matter which position it lies in.
You as a parent can stay in control over the speakers volume by predefining its volume limit through your phone.
When fully charged, the built-in battery gives you 11-13 hours of playing time at 50% volume.

Reviews
So cute and funAnonymous reviewerI got this as a cute lamp speaker combo for a bedroom. Ignore the bad review there are 3 settings, night light, pink or green (depending on which colour you buy) and a dance party setting which cycles through different colours when music is played.
The cutest speaker!Anonymous reviewerThis was meant to be a present but it is so cute that I had to keep it! I especially love the disco lights feature! The sound is not amazing quality but it is fine for the price.
Brilliant children’s speakerAnonymous reviewerThe children absolutely love their speaker and having ‘boogie dance parties’ in the dark with the lights on the speaker.
Nice product but only has TWO light settingsAnonymous reviewerThis works fine as a Bluetooth speaker and nightlight. Unfortunately, the product details state it has three light settings (nightlight, stronger light, and disco), however the stronger light does not exist. I probably would not have bought this had I known. IKEA may need to reword the product info for this.

Story
Jump up and dance!
It's hard to sit still when you hear a great song. Especially if colourful light flashes in sync with the music like a disco lamp. VAPPEBY speaker makes music more accessible to the youngest children. And it can be used anywhere in a home – even in the bathroom when brushing your teeth.
”We made it resistant to water splashes and robust, so it can fall on the floor now and again without breaking”, says Stjepan Begic. He’s been involved in developing VAPPEBY and seen how important music is to many children and their parents. ”In an interview survey with parents, 82 percent said that they like to dance with their children. Music is strongly associated with joy, movement and togetherness, yet also with a home’s atmosphere.”
Music without a screen
A friend from morning to night
VAPPEBY looks like a cute make-believe animal, a new friend whose stylish bow tie acts as an on/off button. The volume is regulated by the nose, and you can jump between songs with an extra push of the bow tie button. ”Smaller children often have two songs they like to play on repeat for a period of time, and it’s easier when they only need to press a button", explains Stjepan. When the evening comes, you can put VAPPEBY in its charging station and dim it down to a soft night light – waiting for a new day of music and dance.
