The book with the pictures and the big letters please..

So what they seem to be saying is that numbers and letters are too complicated for kids and the adults they look after, so we should use pictures instead.

So no age classifications, no complicated '18' to signify you ought to be 18 to play this game. What we need instead is a picture of a spider, cos spiders are, like, quite scary, and this way the numerically challenged understand that the game is also quite scary.

Given the average checkout assistant's aptitude in handing over change, I would have to say they're probably right and today's kids are too stupid to understand numbers or letters.
