Generic/Asion buttons for toy

Guest
I gotta fix this toy for my son, but I think it's an Asion knockoff of the Twilight childrens constellation night lights. I need one of the four buttons for the turtle. They're formed plastic buttons, that contact the rubber PCB button pads under-neath. Can I post pics here? I contacted "CloudB", whoes product seems identical, but they claim none of their lights used those type of buttons. I've located the toy on various sites and all come up to an Asian supplier from various manufacturers ugh. so I think this maybe a generic button piece. Any suggestions?

And the manufacturer is listed as Shenzhen Kowayli Technology Electronics Co. Ltd. Maybe someones familiar? but I think it's just a middle man tradinc Co./marketer for Asian products.

I thought of that, but they're all different from the On/Off button. I'm still looking, but thought by chance...

Why not just use a clothing button of the proper color, and glue it in
place? If it needs a point to actuate the switch, get a plastic shank
button:

Go to the fabric store, or you could probably find something that
would work in your wife's button box in two minutes.
