DOLLS ARE FOR GIRLS – CARS ARE FOR BOYS

Says who?🤔🙄

Happy Tuesday beautiful people ♥️🤗🤗

ARE DOLLS ONLY FOR GIRLS? ❓

I know today’s post may not get lots of likes, because of what I’m about to share. (I don’t mind really, as long as one parent gets it) 

I laugh when parents stop their little boy from playing with a dolly, because they think it’s inappropriate. 

And I’m so sick and tired of people thinking that when a little boy plays with a dolly, that means he is gay!

I used to work with a 7 year old that loves playing with dolly. Most times he comes to lessons with a dolly and other kids used to tease him. 

I always tell them off of course, as well as explain to them that it’s ok  to play with any toys they want. 

There is nothing manlier than a man who holds a baby in his arms. 

Something a lot of women out there would agree on. 

So, that’s why it’s funny to me how when a grown man care for baby everyone thinks he is amazing,  but when a baby boy plays with a doll people seem to think it’s inappropriate 😅

But honestly – there is no such thing as “boy” toys or “girl” toys, there are just toys! 

Did you know that playing with dolls helps children, (boy included) develop compassion and empathy, learning how to care for another person. 

 Why would that only be for girls? 

If you think differently, well, that’s on you! 

My final thoughts 

It is important to remember that play like everything else should be about free choice.

 If we wish to raise free thinking, independent individuals it is important to let boys and girls explore all aspects of their personality and not stigmatize or shame them to conform to one way of thinking. 

Fathers these days are an equal part of raising their children.

Dear parents, please allow your boys to play with any toys they like. 

 Playing with dolls should also be an equal choice for boys and girls. Happy parenting!

Thanks
