The girl is thought to be related to a pink color.
The first reason may be commercial reasons such as ' Barbie Doll ' and ' Hello Kitty'.
Girls have been seeing pink dolls like 'Barbie Doll' and 'Hello Kitty' since childhood.
Also, the dolls are mostly pink.
If girl continue to look like this, girl may feel that you like pink.
If all the peers use pink, then may be interested in pink.
However, I think the biggest reason to relate the color pink to a girl is the social stereotype.
Girl are often forced to be feminine when they are born.
Pink and feminine are thought to be related.
Due to these social stereotypes, the child is naturally attracted to the pink color when she is born.
