Petition updateStop promoting toys as only for boys, or only for girlsThis Christmas, let's shop outside the box

Let Toys Be Toys
Nov 25, 2014
This Christmas we’re encouraging shoppers to reject ‘toys for boys’ and ‘toys for girls’ and shop outside the pink and blue boxes of toy marketing.
Can you help us spread the message far and wide?
1/ Help us spread the word on key shopping day 6 December – sign up to our Thunderclap to ‘donate’ us a tweet or facebook post with our thought provoking image, kindly donated by photographer Emily Guest.

2/ Support retailers which don’t promote stereotypes – visit our Toymark directory of recommended retailers: http://www.lettoysbetoys.org.uk/recommended-retailers/
3/ Seek out alternatives – check out our Christmas gift guides.

4/ Talk to friends and family about why gender stereotyping matters to you.
We're really happy to see the attention generated online by these two images - hopefully a real sign of change?
