I watched my friends' two-year-old stand in front of their Echo excitedly and yell "Alexa Alexa Alexa Alexa!" Her "toddler accent" meant it had no idea she was trying to say the keyword.

My toddler pronounces it "Uh-yexa" which won't activate. That's a feature in my mind.

"Uhyexa Order bears!"

"I found a teddy bear for $49.99, would you like to order?"

"Yes!"

"OK."

"Uhyexa, order ehyephants!"

Funny thing is, my toddler was babbling something at dinner and the Echo Dot picked it up and tried to do a Bing search for "Eva has more fries".
