Diary with code & sound
Many of our children’s diaries can be locked with a secret code and also feature a sound effect that makes opening them an exciting experience. The code provides extra protection, so children can keep their thoughts safe. The sound makes the diary something truly special and sparks curiosity to experience a new adventure every time the diary is opened. This makes keeping secrets not only safe, but also exciting and magical.
5 reasons to keep a diary & journal
Moments of joy, worries, heartache, fits of laughter and exciting adventures – all these colourful experiences shape our daily lives and those of our children. There’s one thing that’s particularly helpful for making sense of feelings and thoughts: keeping a diary! We’ll tell you why keeping a diary is such a great idea and what benefits writing down your thoughts regularly can have, especially for children:
5 benefits of keeping a diary
- Clearing your mind: Writing helps you organise your thoughts and feelings. This can take the pressure off your mind and make it easier to let go of certain things.
- Increased creativity: You learn a lot from writing regularly. This is because you constantly think about what you want to say and how to express it properly. This improves your rhetorical skills and creativity.
- Regular motivation: Put your ideas, goals and dreams into words. Writing things down helps you put ideas into practice and reach your goals even faster.
- Appreciating small moments: What made me laugh today? What am I proud of? When did I feel particularly happy? Ask yourselves these questions again and again in your diaries. You’ll see: happiness is usually found in the little moments.
- Expressing feelings out loud: Friendships and even the parent-child relationship can be strengthened by keeping a diary. Because when you explore your feelings in writing, you also learn to express them out loud. This often leads to greater mutual understanding.

Set & change diary code
Here’s how to set up your own secret code in just three steps. Whether it’s TOPModel, Miss Melody, Dino World or Ylvi – all Depesche diaries with a code and sound feature the same default secret code. Here’s how to set your own secret code:
- The default password is “0000”. Enter it – and the lock will open whilst music plays.
- Immediately after opening the lock, press the “*” button and hold it down for 3 seconds.
- You now have 10 seconds to enter a new four-digit password. If you enter more than 4 digits, the first four digits will be saved. Press the “#” button to confirm and save the new password.
Have you forgotten your password?
If you forget your password, simply press the numbers ‘1’, ‘3’ and ‘0’ at the same time and hold this combination down for 4 seconds. You can then enter a new password, as explained in steps 2 and 3. Make a note of this tip or save this page on your mobile phone – it’s sure to come in handy many times!
New batteries, same passcode!
When the batteries are flat, you can replace them as follows: Turn the screw on the battery compartment counter-clockwise and remove the cover. Then insert the new AG13 / LR44 batteries as shown in the diagram on the inside. Replace the cover and tighten the screw. Good to know: Your password remains secure even after you’ve changed the batteries!
