The Brand - Storyball
Storyball is a revolutionary smart toy. It aims to immerse kids in a world of play, imagination and learning, while keeping them away from phones, tablets, and TVs. This screen-free technology creates the illusion of being inside a video game in which children complete intriguing challenges and take brain-teasing quizzes with the help of their favourite characters.
