Oh, Taylor doesn't want the apple? Okay, then, how about some goldfish? Does Taylor want goldfish? Look at the goldfish, Taylor!!! Honey, look, Taylor's eating goldfish!

Someone is in for a surprise (maybe pleasant, maybe not -- YMMV).

If Taylor is over (say) 2, or if Mommy chooses to belt that shit out over the plane, I'm with ya, RP.
But I remember reading once that for the very early ages, high, sing songy, repetitive voices make a difference. My wife and I mocked my MIL with all that shit because it made her sound like the fifth Tellitubbie, but we noticed it had an effect, and then we read some such shit that suggested that it actually helps communication.
Like I say, it should be used only in moderation, and only with infants or with Sidd. And in public it should be whispered, so the chances of looking like a fucking idiot are raised no more than necessary.
