Put Portuguese + English Play on your Yoto
A short, beginner-friendly route to get this song onto a Make Your Own card.
Before you start, you'll need:
- The free Yoto app and a Yoto account.
- Your Yoto Player or Mini already set up and connected to Wi-Fi.
- A blank Make Your Own card, if you want to listen on the physical Yoto Player.

Audio: Portuguese + English.
No Play Aprende account needed. You'll need a Yoto account to add songs to a card.

1. Get the audio
Stomp, Pula, Shake!Or download as ZIP (1 song)
2. Add it to your Yoto library
Web browser — my.yotoplay.com
This step happens in a web browser, not the phone app itself — on a phone, tapping New Playlist in the app opens this automatically.
- Go to my.yotoplay.com/my-cards and log in with your Yoto account.
- Tap New Playlist, then MAKE NEW.
- Upload the MP3 file you downloaded.
- Name the playlist "Portuguese + English Play" — phase 3 asks you to find it by this name.
- Tap SAVE.
3. Link the Make Your Own card
Yoto app
- Open the Yoto app and find your new playlist.
- Tap it, then the ⋮ menu, then Link to a Card.
- Put a blank Make Your Own card into your Yoto Player and tap Link.
- Watch for a red record icon, then a green tick.
4. Confirm it plays
Yoto Player
- Take the card out and put it back in.
- Press play. If Portuguese + English Play starts, the card is linked correctly.
Print your card label
Optional — the sticker goes on the front of the card and isn't required for the card to work.
Choose the PDF that matches your printer paper: US Letter or A4. Print on full-sheet sticker paper, or ordinary paper to check the size. Print at 100% / Actual size.
Separate check: ready for offline listening
Playing once doesn't confirm the file is fully downloaded — it may just be streaming. To check for certain: in the Yoto app, go to Settings → My Players → Audio Download Status. It lists each title as downloaded or still waiting. Leave the Player plugged in and on Wi-Fi (not playing) until Portuguese + English Play shows as downloaded — that can take longer than a few minutes.
If something's not working
I downloaded the ZIP — what now?
A ZIP is a folder of files, not a song by itself. Open it on your phone or computer first (see the iPhone/Android notes above) so you have the MP3 file, then continue with phase 2.
The playlist is in the app, but my card doesn't play it.
Go back to the playlist, tap the ⋮ menu and Link to a Card again, keeping the card in the Player the whole time until you see the green tick.
I linked the wrong playlist.
Linking again simply replaces what a card points to — open the right playlist, tap Link to a Card, and relink it the same way.
It played once, but I'm not sure it's ready for offline use.
Playing once isn't proof — it may have streamed rather than downloaded. Check Settings → My Players → Audio Download Status in the Yoto app: it shows downloaded vs. still waiting for each title, which is the real confirmation.
You're done when:
- Portuguese + English Play appears as a playlist in your Yoto app.
- You saw the green tick after linking it to the card.
- The card plays Portuguese + English Play when inserted (tested once on Wi-Fi).

Yoto questions
Are the songs really free for Yoto?
Yes. Every song is a free MP3 download with no account needed. You only need your own Yoto player and MYO cards.
Do I need to convert the files?
No. They are standard MP3s, which the Yoto app accepts as they are.
Can I put a whole playlist on one card?
Yes. Unzip a playlist, upload all its numbered tracks to one Make Your Own playlist and link it to a single card.
