"For the first time in New Zealand we'll have a large early childhood organisation that has declared itself to be pro-gun," she said.

No, she wants kids to be hysterical and clueless around guns.

In terms of sense, gun safety, etc. reflecting on my own childhood, we had toy guns which we pointed at each other and fired caps in, then came the airguns and you don't point those at each other. That is not useful. I wonder if not toy guns should be banned, and we should then only give older kids actual guns that shoot things out of them and which they are not to point at or fire at one another with. I know, rules out the nerf guns, never mind airsoft and paintball. Hmm. Cat's out of the bag I'm afraid.
