Brands, baby, brands!

How many brands does your little kid already know and LOVE? I bet they’re numerous. My 3 year old is currently car brand crazed. He’s recognizing every Peugeot on the street these days after we bought a new family car from the French car maker. And of course, how can kids not know the Golden Arches of McDonalds. It’s a branded world out there!
How ‘dangerous’ is this. Will kids grow up as retarded brand junkies who can’t buy or use anything unless it has a well known logo on it? Have a branded and ‘designed’ toys taken away the joys of childhood tinkering and imaginative exploration.
