Think like a three-and-a-half-year-old

  • Refer to yourself by name instead of saying I or me. The effect can't do that for you, and it is the single biggest giveaway of the character.
  • Use short sentences and ask lots of questions, each one ending on a rise.
  • Giggle often, from the belly, in quick bursts. The Pitch +10 clip shows how far the laugh can go.
  • Stay delighted. Everything is the best thing that has happened today.

Made for small audiences

This is a voice for children who are happy to play along: a video call with nieces and nephews, a puppet show on camera, a birthday message, a counting or tidy-up game. For reading at the end of the day, the Pitch +6 clip is a calmer, bedtime version that is easier to listen to for ten minutes. Recorded messages work well too. Make one in the Online Voice Changer and send the file, so a child can replay it whenever they like.

Free Elmo voice changer FAQ

Can I use the Elmo voice on a video call with my kids' grandparents or cousins?

Yes, if the call runs in Chrome: Google Meet, Zoom's web client or Teams on the web. Press Use this voice in calls and pick Facecam Virtual Mic as the microphone.

Is this really Elmo's voice?

No. It is your own voice, raised and softened to sound like him. It isn't official and contains nothing recorded from the programme.

My voice is deep. Will it still work?

Yes, but you may need more lift. Try Pitch +10, the laugh clip's setting, as your everyday level.
