YES YES, A THOUSAND TIMES YES!!!
My little girl is only two and a bit, and loves princesses, ponies, and pretty much anything with a significant refractive index. That being said, we’ve faced questions when she wanted the black plastic monster truck toy at the toystore “Oh, is this for your brother?” (nope) and from the in-laws “Why did you buy her that?” (because we went to the toystore specifically to get her a toy, and that’s what she chose).
We could certainly argue that some tools are really designed for men, but other than that, tech has no inherent gender. If young girls want to engineer, I agree that it shouldn’t have to be some “pink/girlified” set of construction blocks. Yeah, have pink blocks available, but also have available the “normal” colors. You may find a surprising number that need to use some of the pink blocks as well…
