Nurseries are encouraging children to question their gender by reading them stories that challenge male and female stereotypes.
Books including characters who believe the are the wrong gender will be read to children as young as three after LGBT inclusion group Educate and Celebrate put them on nursery and primary school reading lists.
One features a teddy bear named Thomas, who says 'in my heart, I've always known that I am a girl teddy', according to The Sunday Times.
Educate and Celebrate, which was funded by the the Department for Education, has backed dozens of schools in adopting gender-neutral toilets and uniforms.
Stories encourage girls to consider a career in fire-fighting and boys to cook dinner for their families.
Introducing Teddy, which is published by Bloomsbury, features an exchange between Thomas and his friend Errol, in which Thomas says: 'I need to be myself, Errol. '
In my heart, I've always known that I am a girl teddy, not a boy teddy. I wish my name was Tilly, not Thomas.'
Another on the list is a picture book called Are You a Boy or Are You a Girl? The story's main character, Tiny, questions their gender identity and discussion topics are listed at the back of the book, including: 'Does it matter if Tiny is a boy or a girl? Should Tiny be allowed to play football and dress up as a fairy?'
Campaign for Real Education chairman Chris McGovern branded the move a mistake.
'I do not question the intentions of the people using and promoting this material, but it is misguided,' he said.
'They are inflicting adult neuroses about gender onto children who are not interested in gender. Children do not have issues about their gender in 99.9% of cases.

“So, you think homosexuality is an inborn sexual orientation?”
I don’t. I think same sex attraction is the result of some sort of psychological damage or tampering. Sometimes that damage is correctable, sometimes not. I have been doing research on this topic for a couple of years and what I have found has led me to that conclusion.
Furthermore, telling someone they are “born that way” may be like telling them they can never escape the hell they find themselves in. How horrible. Many have escaped and many more can, but forcing them to buy the lie that it isn’t even worth trying is more than cruel, it is sadistic. That is what the gay cult does to its members.
Homosexuality is clearly not intended from a biological standpoint because two of the same sex together are sterile.
