Take a trip to a local toy store (or visit one on-line). Answer the questions in as much detail as possible and in 300-400 words, write a report that addresses the questions. The report should be in narrative form, rather than just a series of answers to questions. Be sure to use the appropriate terms from the gender and socialization lecture in your analysis.
Your questions to consider: What messages are inherent in boys and girls toys? What do they teach about masculinity and femininity? Look at marketing, color schemes, types of toys promoted to boys and girls for your analysis.
