Disney yesterday unveiled two new iPod compatible speakers inspired by two of the entertainment giant's most popular television programmes.
The speakers feature the High School Musical and Hannah Montana brands and are part of a range of electronics equipment aimed at youngsters heading towards their teenage years.
Bright red and designed to resemble a school locker, the High School Musical iPod speaker also features a digital AM/FM alarm clock radio.
The purple and silver Hannah Montana iPod speaker includes a guitar amp with microphone and guitar inputs to allow youngsters to play along with their favourite tracks.
Both designs cost $70 (£35) and Chris Heatherly, vice president of global electronics for Disney Consumer Products, expects them to be a hit with today's sophisticated children.
"This year, kids will be looking for flat screen televisions and iPod compatible speaker docks with great sound and our new line is very much on the forefront of this trend," said Mr Heatherly.
Disney already manufactures a range of products aimed at owners of digital media players, including the Tigger and Pirates of the Caribbean iPod nano cases.
