It really all starts with Lego IMO. Give all children male/female a box of Lego on their first birthday. Either they'll take to it or they won't. Problem solved!
...maybe I should also add: A doll and a hair ribbon or something, too.
Hey, while not dolls, I had great fun with my teddy bears as a kid. Served up some mean teddy bear picnics. With the participation of my sister, made some teddy bear magazines for them to read. My mother baked them some miniature cakes. Of course, the bears went parachuting and such too.
Actually, I remember now, before Lego I had some large wooden bricks. Building towers and bridges was pretty neat. Playing physics based puzzle games is still great fun!

Looks like one of my kids wants to go into management, and the other into demolitions.

You're going to have a lot of kids choking on legos...
An important life lesson, surely?

Lego has "DUPLO" which is their baby-safe version: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lego_Duplo
