Audiobooks for younger kids

If your younger kid (preschooler/kindergartener) likes audiobooks, how do they listen to them? Are there mp3 players that work well for this...That maybe the child can even operate by themselves? Maybe something that can be used with headphones or plugged into speakers? If you have a non iPod/Apple (husband hates Apple products) solution that your family loves, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks!

RE:

I had more success playing audio stories in a stereo while my children were resting/napping.  Young children might be more interested in the earbuds than the words that are played!  

However, I imagine that listening to a book while reading along would be beneficial for young children.
