Wallhanging Ideas Needed for Signs

Wallhanging Ideas Needed for Signs
The children's crisis centre that I work at only has written signs on the restrooms. Which means that when the little kids go to the restroom they can't always read which room they are supposed to go into and I hear them in the hallway outside my kitchen, very upset.
I'm thinking I should make small wallhangings with pictures to put on the doors that indicate "boy" and "girl" so the kids will be able to tell.
I have to be careful, because the facility is very "politically correct", as in no race, gender, sex profiling.
Any picture ideas that say "girl" and "boy" without offending anyone?
As in, Sunbonnet Sue would get someone's hackles up.
Any suggestions appreciated for quilt ideas.

Jane Quilter, when I went to your link, I scrolled down and found this one...

Is this the one you meant? It's perfect!
Another option is a happy face sun without the pink cheeks with the rays in ribbons of blue or pink. https://www.google.ca/search?q=happy...hkFicxwbjTU1M:
Any other ideas? Really appreciate the help.

Can you just tie a pink bow on the handle to the girl's and a blue bow on the boy's? Just take about a 10" piece of ribbon, and double knot a bow around the stem of the handle so it won't come undone. The kind of bow like when you tie your shoe.

I like the Batman/Wonder Woman one. Personally, I don't like using pink/blue or skirt/pants to signify female and male - I'm a girl that never wears a skirt, and wears far more blue than pink, so these never made sense to me. If there is a lot of political correctness in this organization, they probably wouldn't approve of those gender indicators either.
Instead of something quilted, could you take pictures of a group of girls and a group of boys?
