Elephant or Elaphant Man?

Uhm...it is a good thing I live with an actual toy designer, because Scott was able to come up with a better design. Hence, there are many babies who will not be scared of the christmas presents that I am giving them this year. Of course, you will just have to check back in a week or so to find out what the improved versions look like. (I don't want to ruin the surprise!)

I had to laugh at the Elephant 1.0 prototype. Hopefully Elephant 2.0 turns out a little better for you :)
