The type acts as a stabilizing anchor for the chaos of color. It says, "You can jump and play (the colors), but you will always land on solid ground (the letters)." tipografía de plim plim

This is in design: the letters look soft, so the brand feels soft. For a toddler who is still learning that the world contains both sharp corners and gentle hugs, this typography promises safety. It is not merely text; it is a
