That is actually a really good point.

Almost none of these mobiles, in a quick skim, have the interesting stuff on the mobile ornaments aimed at the kid. They're instead aimed at the adult.

Exactly this. I work with parents of very young children, and I always tell them that if they're buying something like a mobile or art for the walls, they need to lie on the ground and look up at it from a baby's perspective to know what it'll really look like.

Same reason that wall decor for babies and toddlers needs to be less than 3 feet from the floor. Otherwise it's just for the parents' benefit.
