This looks like a product a lot of effort and thought went into, including a consistent graphical design. Congrats! The style that was chosen, to me is deeply unsettling. These Well-lit, colourful, rounded, smooth 3D objects remind me of a chaotic, visually complex and triggering while trying-to-be-baby-safe environment, and indeed puts me into thinking the exact opposite of what I'd want to achieve with this product…
