HI Joy,

Gorgeous concept and design indeed (love the trains!). Your target is 3 to 6 years old it seems … what is your/Ludorum’s plan as to the safety of the children online? Did TF1 or BBC for example make specific requirements on that matter?

have a good week end!

Kids safety online has been an professional passion of mine for the past decade, so rest assured they are at the highest priority on this project.

I speak to each network individually to also make sure that any/all concerns or requirements they have are addressed as well.
