I've always been fascinated by people who can easily make sense of physical objects, because for me it takes a lot of effort even to put together children's toys.

Television programs, movies, music videos, Web sites, magazines and even some children's toys may send your daughter the message that only a certain body type is acceptable.

We kids really don't need too many toys. Just add some creativity, even a simple balloon and an egg carton can become a fun train or a cute puppy!
