Teaching activity
Gender Specific Toys

17th August 2017
This video could be a superb introduction to teaching aspects of gender. The programme recreates a famous 1970s experiment on kids and gender presumptions.
"The toys children play with have an impact not only on how they see themselves and on what skills they learn, but also on how their brains physically develop."
It's hard to overcome our own #unconsciousbias even with a toddler - and it matters for their development https://t.co/qY0kgEpTKq
