Toys for Toddlers

Quick what color comes to mind when you think of the word boy? What color comes to mind with the word girl? Sterotypes are so prevailent in our culture that we are exposed to it right from the womb and it only increases from there. As a matter of fact stereotyping infants has increased so much over the years that it has even started to affect toys that were once gender neutral, such as legos.





Notice how the video on top targeted for girls consisting on baking and playing resturant not to mention that a majority of the structures are assembled. This blog also touches upon the subject of stereotyping toddlerss while breifely comparing two common toys for young infants.
