I bet this is exactly how the iPhone started.

Update: 3D model is done (screenshot is of an iteration just before the final one). Tonight I'll put together a little circuit board to slip into recesses printed inside the box.
I take great joy in how massively overengineered it all is. Tricks learned will be great for future projects.
Next is printing, sanding & painting, and assembly.
Then we'll have to figure out some daycare appropriate sounds (so: barely audible, gentle, not-fucking-annoying)

Today the 3D designed parts were printed and passed the test fit.
I also collected all other components (yes that's lego, and yes I'll glue it) and knolled them together for a fun photo

Quick update: parts got two base layers and the first yellow coating. This is the look I was hoping for and I think I'll be happy with just one more thin layer.

Update: had a busy week with a last minute work trip abroad. Managed to do some painting (last yellow layer, black lettering, transparant coating) in-between though. Due to time-limitations I did simplify the design. Very happy how the SCIENCE 3000! pops out. Toddler will certainly appreciate that in the four seconds they'll use it.
I hope to connect the electronics tomorrow evening.

The hobbit and I made a start with the recording of "science" sounds.
It's gonne be a tough one..

Installed the LEDs, resistors and decorative lego. Background noise: The Hobbit is doing their part in the project by hitting both their drum and the 3D printer with a drumstick.

Electronics are functional! There's some tidying up tomorrow as I swapped the volume up and down wires.. little video showing the result:
