Girls Are Awesome

Julie at The Hand Mirror shared this awesome poster, which I think I’ve seen before, but always deserves a showing

And the link took my on this little adventure to the girls not chicks website where I found the girls are not chicks colouring book.

I am so, so happy to find this. Being a mother of a young girl, I am absolutely terrified of how to help my wee girl negotiate her way through all the bullshit messages about what being a girl and then a woman is all about. There are so few toys and books out there designed to give girls positive messages about themselves which aren’t based on their bodies or how to get a boyfriend.

You can buy it on their website or on their etsy store.

I have!

    Awesome! I have that poster (two copies, I think) and really enjoy the girls are not chicks coloring book. What a great medium for spreading equality…
