About this listen

Gender differences continue to fascinate scientists across disciplines, and for good reason. Some researchers argue that sex differences in childhood may have an even greater impactthan those that emerge later in life. As children grow, many distinctions between boys and girls begin to blend. Yet other studies suggest the picture is far more complex than a simple convergence over time.

This episode of Unleashing Sister Saints is the fourth in a series designed to help you (whether a parent, family member, educator, ward, or community member) better understand gender differences so we can more effectively support the children, youth, and families in our lives The first episode examined how boys and girls differ in the way they see, the second explored how they hear, and the third focused on how they smell. This fourth installment turns to another essential sense—touch—and looks specifically at what research reveals about how boys and girls engage with toys. One more to go! Listen in.
