BOOTS is to remove in-store signs advertising science toys for boys following customers saying they should on Twitter and Facebook.
Shoppers complained about the high street chain suggesting toys from the Science Museum were for boys.
But the Nottingham-based firm said it was wrong to have labelled the toys according to gender and will be removing it from their stores.
In a statement, the company said:"Thank you to all our customers who have taken the time to share their thoughts with us on the signs we use in the toys and games area of our stores.
"It was never our intention to stereotype certain toys. It's clear we have got this signage wrong, and we're taking immediate steps to remove it from store."
