Abstract

The toy industry has been criticized for promoting materialism and distorting the children's imaginations towards beliefs in unrealistic concepts. Some manufacturers addressed this concern by making religious toys, such as Judah the Christian Soldier, Grace the Pro-life Doll and Born Again Bunny, while other manufacturers created dolls with body figures of typical women. Meanwhile, majority of the toy industry critics go beyond by suggesting that toys should adequately prepare children for the challenges of adult life through toys that resemble successful men and women.
