Which Dolls Are Good for Boys?
Barbie dolls are an exceptionally popular toy. Over three billion have been sold so far and their popularity doesn't seem to be waning. Its interesting that the male Ken doll is actually only popular with girls. Boys tend to prefer Action Man.
So why do boys prefer Action Man over Ken? Is it the Action Man name, or maybe the outfits and uniforms or the gadgets and weapons? There aren't a great selection of accessories for Ken dolls as there are for Action Man Figures. One of the key features of Action Man is the range of weapons that he can grasp with his gripping hands. And most boys love gadgets and model weapons.
Another difference is the dolls themselves. The articulation in Action Man Figures means that they can be made to climb and hang onto pretty much anything. In contrast Ken appears to be something of a wimp.
There has been much debate about whether boys should play with dolls. Traditionally dolls have been the toys given to girls. Boys tend to be given toy cars, boats, trains and guns. Some parents can become very worried if their young son shows an interest in playing with dolls.
But experts agree that playing with dolls, by boys and girls, is generally a good thing. It can be very educational, helping children to make sense of the world around them by re-enacting scenes from life.
Most educators and child psychologists agree that play should not be divided based on gender. as young girls including dolls, pram and dolls houses~Ideally boys need to be provided with the same playthings as girls including dolls and dolls houses}. as young girls. And girls should be allowed to play with toys that might traditionally be given to boys, footballs, rc cars and even Action Man Figures.
Dolls for boys can be an excellent aid to their learning and education. However I think that most young boys would far prefer an Action Man over a Ken Doll.
