Decorations are at adult eye levels, or are too syrupy and cute. No evidence exists of personal involvement for families. Books are not available because they get torn or soiled. Pictures are cartoons or other stereotypes. Toys are dumped in a box or kept away from children's reach so they are at the mercy of the adults' selection.
Adults attempt to restrict the use of toys to certain areas, like housekeeping or blocks.
No provisions are made for children to climb, or structures are safe only for older, more mobile children.
