Your first sentence is what I was going to say. Hanging out with other kids and/or absorbing things from other sources (including adults) will expose her to these things anyway. It's better to let kids watch them and then have any age-appropriate discussions about them if they come up.

And they are hardly the worst example plus the things kids latch onto might be surprising. I was about 7-8ish when (original) Disney's Beauty and the Beast was first out and didn't care much about the romance or princess dress. I was more bothered about Belle being a reader and struggling to fit in because that was the thing that spoke to me most!

My eldest niece went through a super rigidly girly phase a few years ago when she started attending nursery. Now she's kinda not as into pretty dresses (but still wears them occasionally) and has rediscovered her previous love of Lego and dinosaurs. I know as adults we worry about imposing stereotypes on kids but sometimes you just have to let them be what they're going to be.

Same! I mainly remember being super jealous of her for that awesome library she got to have while at the castle.
