Looking at the images myself they looked totally normal and the way I feel it should be.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01458724984388690446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1671589412033995399.post-12363105520603710122013-06-12T20:44:55.791-07:002013-06-12T20:44:55.791-07:00Sasha,

(A set of chew toys and rattles that were modeled after tools for a little boy, for instance.)<br /><br />We had a great conversation about this in provocation once, about how to balance gratitude and acceptance "Thank you for this gift to the classroom! Thank you for thinking of us." with our principles as teachers, and our desires to control the materials available in our classrooms.<br /><br />Great to hear from you!<br />kpKendrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15127842790564960876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1671589412033995399.post-72185401148818813942013-06-11T21:08:50.308-07:002013-06-11T21:08:50.308-07:00My daughter (almost 4mos) is still too young for r...My daughter (almost 4mos) is still too young for really gendered toys, by and large, and yet...

I would certainly provide some gratification on my part if the children were to notice the gender stereotypes and attempt to challenge them as we have had countless conversations regarding this topic. Do you still have the photos on hand?<br /><br />TracyPreschool Twohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08609270601148294007noreply@blogger.com
