Creating a desktop speaker with NFC for storytelling - ESP8266, DFPlayer Mini, PN532

Hi. I've made a simple fairy tale player for my child, where I put the fairy tales I recorded on a memory card. I'd like to take it a step further and make a stationary speaker that plays a specific fairy tale when an NFC tagged figurine is applied to it. My first thought was to use ESP8266 + DFPlayer mini and PN532. Properly writing the source code would allow it to work as I described above. Perhaps you know of other and better solutions for which no programming skills will be needed? Perhaps there are some ready-made solutions? DeAgostini released a speaker like this some time ago that works on an identical principle (listening magic). I would like to replicate this in a home environment. If you have any ideas or comments, I would love to read and be inspired.

You don't say anything about the technology you made it in, so it's impossible to say what's within your reach and what's beyond your capabilities

Virtually EVERYTHING cool that can be done today is based on software.
Obout there was a thread: 'turn on/off every double click' Without the use of a microcontroller, on discrete elements, this would be the size of a fridge (not much of an exaggeration)
