As both a sound designer and a father of three, I know how challenging it is to capture the spontaneous sounds of children at play in a perfect studio setting. Kids Vol. 1 brings that elusive magic straight to your fingertips, featuring a meticulously curated collection of authentic kids’ sounds—laughing, grunting, playing, screaming, singing, speaking, and more—recorded in both solo and group settings.
Each file has been carefully treated to remove unwanted noise without sacrificing the character and nuance of the original recordings. The sounds are trimmed and given clear, UCS-compliant filenames and metadata, so you can easily drop them right into your films, games, commercials, or any project that needs an infusion of childlike energy.
Kids Vol. 1 captures the sound of kids at their best—having fun.

This library features a Sonic Snapshot into the sonic signature of Shanghai, China. Hear traffic ambiences from a city with the world’s highest EV adoption rate, street sweeper bells played by workers driving three-wheeled trucks loaded with cardboard, walla from art galleries and metro stations, and the low-frequency drones of passing ships in the Huangpu River at the Shanghai Bund.
We recently visited Shanghai, and our BNB had an electric mahjong table — so naturally, we recorded it. Hear all the mechanical sounds it makes, from the magnetic dice roller to the automatic shuffler and dispenser. We also captured manual shuffling, as well as tile and table foley. Many of these sounds can be repurposed for designed mech SFX as well.

A Sound Effect is a great asset to have discovered.
We found the site very easy to navigate, purchasing and downloads were effortless and the effects themselves are awesome! Asbjoern has done us all a great service.

There are many great independent sound effect libraries available these days. The main problem with having so many, is keeping track of them!
A Sound Effect is a great hub, and is one of the first places I visit to look for sounds by category or genre. I started coming here to see if I could find libraries that I knew I had heard, but forgot WHERE I had heard them.
And in the process discovered libraries I never would have found otherwise. Great work! Keep it up!
We're always looking for new sounds to mangle, so when A Sound Effect had a holiday sale, I tried them out.
The purchase experience is really smooth and quick, and delivery is almost instant.
I'll definitely come back to them again in the future!
A Sound Effect is a wonderful resource for indie sound effects libraries. On top of that, it has some of the finest sound design, film and game audio interviews!
I often need very specific types of sounds so I've become a big supporter of independent recorders.
Until now I've always had to go to their individual websites. Now I can find them all in one place.
And, Asbjoern is great to work with!
A Sound Effect is a well curated boutique sound effects shop and a great place to find industry interviews and learning resources.
