BBC in "Scissor-Gate"

Yesterday my eyes happened to wonder upon a magazine, specifically BBC's Toybox "Teach Me" it's a fun mag with cute/naff tie ins with BBC program's to help kids learn. What is so interesting that you felt you had to tell me about it I hear your cold eyes scream!? Well the mag had a free gift with it, although free weapon may have been a more appropriate way of describing it. The gift was a set of scissors, surely the BBC aren't stupid enough to give kids scissors? It's like saying "Here kids, play with sharp things, they are fun!" Okay so maybe they aren't very sharp but they have to be a little sharp or they become less scissors and more weirdly shaped plastic objects. I fully expect next months free gift to be a set of knifes.
