CHANGING FACES
TOYS R’NT US
4 in 10 people with a visible difference say their appearance affects how well they did at school. Bullying, lack of concentration, and anxiety are just a few problems they have to deal with. So to tackle the route of these issues and catch the biases before they’re created, we created a rare, special edition toy range with scars, marks and conditions to normalise visible differences from a young age. Children between the ages of 3-5 years to be exact, as that’s when they start forming complex social categories and may show biases based on gender, race, or other visible characteristics.
We’ll also ‘unbox bias’ with toy influencers on TikTok and Instagram to educate viewers on these rare visible differences.
