In What Ways Are Toys Agents Of Gender Socialization?

Abstract: 4 pages in length. Toys represent as much of an agent of gender socialization as any other cultural influence from which children learn to act within the boundaries of their respective global societies. Whether on the battlefield with G.I. Joe or out shopping in the pink Corvette with Barbie, children's toys reflect a particularly pertinent conduit between gender socialization and the life lessons boys and girls learn from these fun facilitators. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
