Obnoxious, but also NOT correct. As another poster pointed out baby talk does serve a purpose in language development, and is a pretty universal part of child rearing. It's not some recent cultural phenomenon that's holding people bad from their full potential (or whatever BS this person is trying to imply). Using big words or skipping the baby talk stage doesn't lead to more rapid or better development.

A better vocabulary is learned somewhere. Adopting an upbeat tone was always sufficient for me to hold toddlers attention.

The image conflates baby talk and vocabulary. Baby talk is the tone, not the words. So you did it correctly, good vocabulary with an upbeat tone.

very good, sounds legit. This may seem a on sequiter, but are you no longer farting in a maggoty way?
