Music Player

Especially in childcare centers, you can't take in your phone or any smart devices due to cameras, etc., so I have this more "dumb device" that I can download music to from Spotify to play offline. Also useful in regular classes when connecting to the studio bluetooth speakers - this way, no notifications or calls can accidentally come through from your phone during class.
