Products That Are Pointlessly Gendered

Starting Them Early

These beginner blocks are basically like Legos for younger kiddos. While the boys are offered blocks in primary colors, girls are given pink, lavender, and fuchsia. Wouldn’t it be better if one package included all colors of the rainbow including what is available in the girls set? Studies have proven that the more colors kids are exposed to as tiny tikes, the better their brains develop. Based on this evidence, it would be a good thing to expose children to differently-colored blocks as opposed to limiting them to only being able to play with a certain color set.
