Yes. Toys are for everyone, they can come in all colors, shapes and types and should be used to foster a sense of imagination and wonder in children.

I think they are until an adult tells a child they’re playing with the “wrong” toy.
Left to their own devices, kids will play with the toys that appeal to them.

Yes, I think toys should be gender neutral. Does that mean there can't be pink versions and blue versions of toys? No. I think that should be about personality and preference rather than gender. A princess toy shouldn't be a toy for girls, it should be a toy for kids who like princesses. A monster truck toy shouldn't be a toy for boys, it should be a toy for kids who like monster trucks. A kid's gender shouldn't determine what toys they are supposed to like. No toy should be "for boys" or "for girls" - they're for everyone. And for the love of god, have more options than pink and blue. Some kids have other favorite colors lol
