I would suggest instead of going just off of your one baby personal
experience, reading research of many babies.

Just to toss in a bit of anecdotal info from my experience as a
mother...
First off, there is a difference between what infants and toddlers
will zero in on.
Infants respond to very high contrast and don't have the ability to
perceive color. There are a variety of toys and mobiles on the market
in red, black and white. I'm sure they've done the research to
validate this. Toddlers like bright colors and can process a little
more complex shapes.
Ditto to Andrew on the faces, but I would also offer that older
babies and toddlers are fascinated with other kids, especially of a
similar age.
Generally, Baby Einstein videos would be a great source of
inspiration and material for your project. Moms I know joke about the
"baby crack" videos, because it is definitely attention-getting
(moreso than, say, a football game or anything with a storyline).
Hope this is helpful.
