My daughter came home from school yesterday (she's 6), with an envelope. On it was her name, (written in an adult hand), and signed by a boy in her class! She didn't really understand why he had given it to her and assumed it was a party invitation. I opened it to find it was a promotional leaflet for a woman who teaches hoola hoop tricks, for party celebrations, school fetes etc. This in itself wound me up because the woman doesn't have any connection with the school, but I was more concerned about the direct marketing of young children! I feel deeply uncomfortable about it but I'd be interested to know what others think!
