#3It's a fantastic idea - but I would point out what a child sees in their head vs their drawing capabilities are probably very different. Still, I guess they could recognize it as something they created and it might encourage them to keep being creative?

#4Heartwarming :)
Reminds me of My Machine, an organization that takes children drawings of machines and make them come to live.

#5Q. Do you take adult’s drawings?
R. I personally prefer to work with children’s drawings, but occasionally, I have worked with the adult’s (inner child’s) drawings. The best thing to do is contact me with the drawing and I will let you know what I think.

Well, if they draw something and declare "That's my friend Foo!". If you show up with a stuffed version of their drawing, they are likely to recognize that as "Foo". Kids have a way of not letting their lack of drawing skill or details get in the way of a good story.
Plus, I doubt they could turn a 3 year old's drawings into something. My kid's drawings aren't that recognizable yet... (just lines and squiggles)

#7My question would be: assuming you want to, how do you scale it? There's such an individual toy-by-toy creative aspect to it.
Also, the potential for building brands seems pretty spectacular. Stuffed toy is just one step, you could add stories, games, episodes...this could be to disney what 99designs is to graphic designers :)

Or they could work only for rich babies? :)

#9as an interesting tangent, the [hopkin green frog](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopkin_Green_Frog) thing that went viral some years ago, and which people assumed was a kid's typically clumsy attempt to draw his pet frog, turned out to be a pretty accurate drawing of his missing toy frog.

#10This is positively magical. I can't wait til my child is old enough to draw something coherent enough :)
Absolutely brilliant.
