Makeovers

"Fathers are doing more of the family shopping just as girls are being steered toward toys that develop math skills."

When I first saw this article, I was more than a little offended... 'Really, Toy Industry?!? Because as a mom I wouldn't buy my daughter Legos or science related things?!?' But then I got to thinking. I don't care what the motivation for it is, as long as they're doing it. I would have loved Legos when I was little, but you just didn't buy those kinds of things for little girls back then. I don't blame my parents; it was a generational mindset.

My daughter loves to build things. She loves science. And I love that there is girl friendly stuff out there for her to interact with.

So in the end, I don't care that they're doing it for the wrong reasons, as long as they're doing it.

What do you think?
