The Feminist Princess Project:
How I vaccinated my daughter against the princess phase
How I vaccinated my daughter against the princess phase
Don't get me wrong, this is not an anti-princess project. In our home, we have a healthy princess culture. How we got there is what I want to share with all of you over a short series of videos. I hope to launch the first one in the next week.
This project stems from the countless conversations I have had with other parents, both moms and dads, who ask me how I was able to get through the princess phase (many assume it is about ages 3-5) without an actual princess phase. And I'm not one to hoard good information, so I want to share my thoughts and strategies with you!
Before I launch, I thought perhaps you have a question to ask me first. Do you have a question about raising a girl and princess culture? Email the project at feministprincess--at--vivalafeminista.com. No question is too small, silly, or stupid! OK, the only stupid question is the one not asked. You walked right into that, didn't ya?
I can't wait to hear your thoughts and address them during the course of this short project.
Disclaimer: Just as the flu vaccine does not mean you won't get the flu, this vaccination against the princess phase does not guarantee your lil one won't go through a princess phase. I just hope it will be a healthier, shorter, and less painful phase.

Congrats on your anniversary!
And I'm eager to see what you've got in store for your Princess Project! I'm a fan of self-rescuing princesses myself.
I am looking forward to the Princess Project. So wonderful!
I meant to comment on this post months ago and say how excited I am to read your thoughts on this topic. I remembered again when I saw my sister-in-law post this on Pinterest: http://parenting.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/10/24/turn-your-princess-obsessed-toddler-into-a-feminist-in-eight-easy-steps/
thanks Julia! Sorry that my video skills are worse than I expected and it's taking longer to launch this project than I expected. Hopefully soon!
