Designing a product for kids involves not only looking at what kids are capable of doing, but also at the context of use, and at parents' and relatives' needs and values. Further, you also need to factor the mission and brand values of the company behind the product. This analysis allowed us to see that, indeed, kids are capable of carrying out complex tasks. However, parents in general do not want their kids to have unrestricted potential, and Imaginarium, the manufacturer, insists on producing educational and responsible products. As a result, it was decided to simplify the end-user side of the product, 6 buttons, while keeping a good degree of flexibility on the parent side of the product. Through a back office application parents can configure the functions of the phone. On a side note, we could also argue whether 35 buttons are needed in a remote.

If my one year old knows how to turn on my television with a remote control with 35 buttons, why does a 6 year old need a phone with only 6? Not too sure they really did the research for this one.
