    26 Hilariously Bad Children’s Product Designs

    There's a special place in design hell for whoever approved some of these. Kids' products are supposed to be cute, safe, and wholesome - but somewhere between the idea and the factory floor, things went horribly, hilariously wrong.

    We're talking about toys that look deeply cursed, coloring books that should've gone through one more round of editing, and mascots that feel like they've seen things no plushie should ever see. You'll find misplaced buttons, nightmare fuel smiles, and a few very questionable shapes that definitely weren't in the design brief.

    The best part? Most of these actually made it into stores. Parents bought them. Kids played with them. Somewhere, a focus group said, "Yeah, that seems fine."

    So grab your juice box and prepare for some truly unhinged creativity - because these 26 children's products prove that when it comes to bad design, imagination really has no limits.
