you must perform a toy inventory of 30 toys (15 from the “girls” section

and 15 from the “boys” section, without a physical store you’ll need to search toys you

would’ve typically found in each section). Your inventory must include: (1) the name of the

toy and (2) a brief description of the toy.

3. Write at least a 2.5-3 page report that answers the below questions (90 points).

Questions to consider in your report:

For each of the below questions compare what you find for boys’ vs. girls’ toys

• What types of toys are in each section (active, cognitive, violent, domestic, etc.)?
• What qualities or characteristics do the toys model for children?
• What impact might these toys have on boys and girls at a young age?
• What type of jobs/roles are the toys preparing children for when they become adults?
• What do the boys’ toys tell us about violence and masculinity?
• What do the girls’ toys tell us about femininity as it relates to beauty, fashion, sexuality, and
consumption?

Do any other demographics such as race, ethnicity, age, class, ability factor

in to toy advertising and socialization?
