Kitchens are for boys too.

This afternoon is David's birthday party. We got him a manly wooden kitchen, its blue, silver and red from Target. Last night it took us 3 hours to put that thing together and this morning he woke up and was thrilled to see it in the living room. We decided to give it to him this morning since we're having the party at my parent's house and carting it around would be too much work. All I know is I am glad I have a husband that isn't narrow minded about gender roles. One of his friends asked what we were getting David for his birthday and when we told him he wrinkled his nose and said boys aren't supposed to play with kitchens. Say what? Do grown men play in kitchens? They do if they're smart. Why can't our little boys play in kitchens? I think its ridiculous telling a two year olds that kitchen stuff is only for girls, its no wonder our men grow up and don't know how to cook or think that its only for women. He loves his little kitchen. He owns a child sized broom too-- I am positively ruining him.
