Toy maker Hasbro says it has invited 13-year-old McKenna Pope and her family to meet with its Easy-Bake team Monday at its Pawtucket headquarters. Pope started petition demanding the toy company make its Easy-Bake Oven more boy friendly. She was inspired to do so when her 4-year-old brother Gavyn Boscio put the oven on his Christmas wish list. The petition garnered more than 30,000 signatures in a little more than a week.
