You could, but that doesn't make /either/ an acceptable to market towards kids.

Yeah, because that would be like selling packs of baseball cards to kids with enticements like chewing gum, a practice that was outlawed in the United States in the 1950's.

Was it outlawed in the 50s? I remember getting baseball cards with gum in the 90s...

Eh, Topps did in the 1950s and The American Tobacco company did it in 1909.
