Protect Your Precious Baby

A friend of mine recently had a baby and while trolling around for gifts, I stumbled across this website. http://www.mytinyhands.com
So, the baby on board car yield sign has an accompanying “don’t touch my baby” stop sign. Isn’t that just darling. I also like how the sign is available in Spanish as well. While I could be underestimating the number of highly affluent, monolingual, overprotective, germ phobic Spanish speaking parents there are out there, I think the real market for this is intended for the same highly affluent, monolingual, overprotective, germ phobic English speaking parents as the original. The Spanish language sign could be about diversity, but I’m guessing a woman who is so unused to dealing with people as she is unable to say, “don’t touch my baby” probably doesn’t have much experience outside her social circle. Therefore, I can’t help but conclude the Spanish language sign has the goal of keeping “the help” from touching her baby.
Either way, wouldn’t an ideogram be a better way to say “don’t touch my baby you dirty dirty stranger” to people of all levels of literacy. I submit the below prototype for your consideration. With help from Tracey, we found a very familiar WASPy icon of a baby, some evil looking hands, and voila.

I think this will make me millions when I start selling them at mother to be boutiques in yuppie neighborhoods, such as Uppity! Now is your chance to get in on the ground floor of an amazing business opportunity.
