Pop Up Toy Tents

Child plays with toys too young for her. Is this okay?
My friend has a 13 year old girl who likes doing normal 13 year old girl stuff, (playing video games, listening to her ipod, etc.). However, I also notice that she likes to play with things that are too young for her.
She likes reading Golden Books, playing in a child’s pop up indoor tent, coloring in coloring books, sleeping under a child’s baby blanket with a stuffed animal, watching shows and DVDs of little kids shows like “Little Bear”, “Angelina Ballerina”, “Mumfie”, and “Franklin” just to name a few.
When I ask her why she likes to do or watch these shows she just says: “Because I like to” or “it’s fun”. The parents don’t seem to think there is a problem. Does anyone else think this behavior is damaging in the long run?

No, this is perfectly normal. It’s likely she feels as though she’s growing up too fast and wants to get back in touch with the days when everything was easy. Lots of people do this–even more often when they’re sick or feeling depressed about something. I know I love digging out my old Baby-Sitters Club books when I have the stomach flu, or watching Arthur/Clifford/whatever. It really IS fun if you have an open mind.
And oh, I’m majoring in biology and still watch Zoboomafoo to learn about animals
