I want to know what happens when the kids are hanging out with their friends and watch that show, then start asking for characters from it.

I'm a PP, not the OP, but my parents give my upper elementary child things from preschool-oriented shows or shows that they've otherwise outgrown and never watched (sometimes because they weren't around when they were the right age for it). My mother basically buys stuff she sees on the shelf at Home Goods/TJ Maxx. On the flip-side, she gave my then 2.5-year-old a toy clearly marked not for 3 and under because it had a small ping pong ball which my kid promptly put in her mouth before I saw what it was.

I'm a mom of 3 young kids and I often get my kids toys that are marked for older kids. So I don't think that's wrong in and of itself. I think the age limitations are often CYA.[/quote]
