It is fun to make something that pleases others, isn't it?<br /><br />Rowena, <br />Mixing gender interest is something I totally think it can be done. let me think.... <br />You could use different images, that would appeal to the boy - vintage car stamps, pics of animals, wizards etc. Then for color, you could either use neutral colors - browns, yellows, oranges, greens, or do one side of the board in girls colors, blending into the boyish colors... I can see it in my head as I type. I feel the challenge!Shona Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15555714752956771771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23756147.post-86975221234088169422010-01-16T14:20:43.674-06:002010-01-16T14:20:43.674-06:00PRETTY GAME!

I love it. <br /><br />ALthough it just made me think that it's a good thing I had a boy and a girl, because I can get so wrapped up in being a girl myself, and pretty things and female things, that I get separated from the masculine world.<br /><br />I wonder what an altered boardgame for a boy, or a gender neutral one would be. And can you combine cars, superheroes, fairies and ballerinas?Rowenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07146077261663557342noreply@blogger.com
