In the essay “Even Nine-Month-Olds Choose Gender-Specific Toys,” Jennifer Goodwin acknowledges the possibility of gender being innate, as a research showed that “even 1-day-old boys spent longer looking at moving, mechanical options than 1-day-girls, who spent more time looking at faces” (89). However, she claims that even actions this early in life may already be influenced by the parents’ different treatments, which start almost instantly after their child is born. Goodwin states that, even when their children are still infants, parents tend to show more affection towards girl than boys, who are dealt with in a more active and playful manner, which could explain the findings of the research mentioned.

Although most of the ‘brutal’ techniques in getting the girls being beautiful are not permanent fixes like plastic surgery, they still alter the outside appearance in order to feature the girl’s inner beauty. The makeover techniques are used to bring the child closer to the ideal idea of being beauty. Toddlers & Tiaras provides a prime example of the quest for fame and celebrity status. Many of the child who compete in the pageant would dress up as celebrities, even going for extreme measures to make sure they look like the exact replica of the celerity, just a miniaturise version. The push towards celebrity means that children spend less time being children and more time working for the works of reality television.
During the two 30 min periods that I observed at Swett-Winters, I saw the children engaging in different social studies practices.

Even if you’re not involved in their play it offers a sense of reassurance to children. You can also support a play based approach to learning by encouraging children to play with things they may not have played with before e.g playing with the resource yourself alongside the child.

Blossom Hill Nursery School, an Experience in Infant Education The school of my choice is Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia considering that they teach with a Christian worldview. While I already contribute to my community and my church, having a teaching degree from Liberty University Online will strengthen my Christian values, broaden my knowledge base, and equip me with the skills necessary to impact my sphere of influence. Already a small business owner, my desire is to pursue an early childhood education degree, so that I can own and manage my own infant nursery school. I follow a generation of teachers-- my grandmother, my mother, and my sister. Since teachers do not earn that much money, not much has been saved for my college funds.
From the moment they are born, children are precious and deserve to be treated with uttermost care. They are vulnerable and as they grow, they spend a lot of time discovering and learning new stuff. Parents should be careful because during this period, what the child learns, sticks for the rest of their life. It is said that the environment has a way of shaping the life of children. We don't want our children to grow up with bad influence and that's why we should as parents invest in bringing up our children in an environment that bring out the best in them.
Doll’s House by Henrik Ibsen was highly criticized for undeniably demonstrating woman’s issues in the 19th century. While the play doesn’t change setting much at all, Ibsen clearly focuses in on the characterization of three insightful characters: Mrs. Linde, Nora, and Helmer. Mrs. Linde is a minor character; however, that doesn’t alter her effect on the play. She provides the mold for the perfect, idealized wife. Nora, the main character, develops rapidly in the play, and her character is a stark contrast to Mrs. Linde.
