    Hope this is the right forum to post this on:

    In local shop the other day with my daughter (5 years old) when her eye caught the "Hello Kitty Magazine". Lovely and pink with a free plate and booklet (12 pages - approx 8 recipes).

    Only realsied when we got home that this is "aimed at 14 year olds" (in small print at the side) and our little girl was disgusted there was no pictures to colour etc.

    Didn't you look at it before buying it?
    Hello Kitty is not just targeted as a brand for children, there are Hello Kitty vibrators.
    That magizine is part of a collection series and not a comic for children.

    Please note that those are Hello Kitty airsoft rifles.

    Which are only suitable for use by older children under adult supervision.

    (Sorry, it's the Airsofter in me)

    Looks like you will have to attempt some inventive recipes to put on the hello kitty plate as a damage limitation exercise;) You could always get a childs baking / cake making kit. Kids love to bake and cook stuff at this age.

    Sorry for continuing the 'Off-Topicness', but just for clarification, the top one is most certainly the real thing; here's the blog of the builder:
    http://blog.riflegear.com/archive/2007/12/26/hello-kitty-ar-15---evil-black-rifle-meets-cute-and.aspx
    It's a California-legal AR-15 he built for his wife.
    Strictly speaking, it's got a Kalashnikitty logo on it, not a Hello Kitty one.

    The second one I suspect is also real, it's certainly on display in a 'real' gunshop.

    I did look at it before buying it - it was only later when I came across the tiny print saying not suitable for kids under 14.

    so i assume that over 14 means from a cooking point of view. e.g. melting chocolate, peeling fruit etc. so they wont get sued by a parent complaining that they bought the mag for a 6 year old who promptly burned the kitchen down.
