Have you ever noticed that most children are fascinated by space from a young age?
When asked what they want to be when they grow up, they respond enthusiastically with the answer of astronaut and are fascinated by stars and exploring the universe until somehow this grows out of them as they get older and have to choose what they really want to be.
It happens all the time and unfortunately the stereotypes that most toy manufacturers live up to aren't helping more children, in particular girls hold onto this enthusiasm later on in life.
I've suggested a few Christmas gifts for that starry-eyed child that you know which will nurture their love of space and create fond memories from which they will hopefully one day look back on as what inspired them to join the space industry!
