I pictured 'boys' t-shirts, pyjamas, greetings cards, wrapping paper, etc etc, and thought about what made them seem to me to be 'for a boy'.

a very interesting and revealing exercise I think.

no items of transport on the list?

cars, buses, trains and tractors spring to mind...

I am answering this in terms of what would almost certainly appear on a Boden boys t-shirt but not girls one.

I don't think I've ever seen items of clothing for girls or boys featuring yetis or saxaphones... just odd. Or pianos...

DS has this yeti one.
