✏ Rules

  1. DO NOT DOXX YOUR KIDS - Seriously, use an alt for this comm or keep it vague; otherwise we’re centralizing info about everyone’s kids into a single place that can be easily focused on.
  2. No jokes about dead kids - I don't care how much the romanovs deserved it, or how right John Brown was, save it for another comm.
  3. No antinatalism struggle sessions

I love the toniebox it's so great and I'm so so happy that we became parents before AI becomes a part of raising kids... This stuff is so bleak...

For those who don't know what a toniebox is, it's a speaker connected to the internet. You can buy figurines (or borrow them from the local library) which have an NFC code to identify the figurine to the box, download the audio associated with it and play it. Effectively the toddler can choose what they want to listen to by selecting the figurine. Seeing them choose which story or songs they want to listen to is very cool.

And if they change their mind, then can just autonomously select a different figurine.
