So the January 2012 Happy Meal toy options are I Can Be Barbie dolls for girls and Team Hot Wheels sets for boys. On the one hand, I was happy to see the commercial for these toys show a girl dreaming of becoming a doctor one day...
On the other hand, where's the commercial showing the girls who want to play with the Hot Wheels? And why do we have to refer to them as "girl" toys or "boy" toys anyway? (Ignore the pun.). Why not just call them what they are?
McDonald's Employee: Thank you for ordering the McNugget Happy Meal. Would your child like the Barbie or the Hot Wheels today?See how easy that was? No sammich required at all.
Parent: My daughter would like the Hot Wheels toy today. Thank you.
