Toys

Description

To what extent do the toys that children play with affect their attitudes and capabilities? Do boys' toys breed aggression while girls' toys breed passivity? Several noted psychologists address these questions, including Dr. Jerome Kagan and Prof. Howard Gardner of Harvard University, Prof. Bryan Sutton-Smith of the University of Pennsylvania, and Prof. Nancy Carlsson-Paige of Lesley College.
