Social Media for Toddlers

I have to admit: I thought I've seen it all when it comes to social media. I was wrong. There is now a new company that teaches toddlers social media. Yes, you heard me right. They use blocks which have an icon of an activity. The toddler listens to a command "I'm sleeping" and then has to place the corresponding block in its proper place. (Watch the video below - there is no sound). The parents can also "post status updates"  through an online service provided by the company. This allows the toddlers to listen to their parents' voice and execute the command (i.e. place the appropriate block in this correct position).

Although, some hail this as a new evolutionary step, I wonder about future of human communication: monosyllabic "conversations"? What do you think? Please use the comment box below to share your opinion.
