Our garden is like an Outdoor Toy display site, and our little girl has the opportunity to try every new toy, every new accessory and even the ones that only make it to prototype stage.
Yesterday, despite the cold, we were out in the garden and I asked her for the favourite thing she had ever played in the garden, and the winner was the Pink Trampoline. 
With such an enormous range of products to choose from, it surprised me a little, but when you consider that she has a pink bedroom, thinks we should paint the outside of the house pink, and given the choice would only wear pink clothes, maybe it should not have done so.
Why the obsession with Pink? I’m not sure, but it’s not from us that’s for sure. She is very clear about being female, and is proud of women’s achievements. When we were watching the news and the three leaders were on she asked me about the government, and asked if there were ladies in the government. When I told here that yes, lots, and we had also had a prime minister who was female, she said that she wanted to be Prime Minister and would make it the law to eat chocolate.
So, I think she associates Pink with being female and is proud of being female, hence an ownership of the Pink colour, and somehow, the Pink Trampoline is more for her than the standard ones. And she actually has a green one in the garden at the moment too.
