Best barbie
My daughter lovery Barbie's and she has lots of them not all though. She gets entertained with Barbie's specially combing their hairs, doing styles on them. She loves dressing them too
Beautiful and fun!
This Barbie was a massive hit and while my adult eye can see that Barbie's hair could be better quality (one strand is inexplicably longer) children don't notice that kind of stuff and this was extremely popular with them. When I was a little girl, one of my favourite toys was a bird that you could brush it's long purple hair and it seems that hair-brushing is something that's stood the test of time as a great toy.
Not only can you brush Barbie's long, beautiful hair, but when you do she plays either a sparkly effect noise or after a few tries (3, if I remember correctly) a longer little tune that the kids like to dance to. While the sound plays, the transparent star sections of her bodice light up and sparkle with different colours of light, it's really pretty! You can also press the star on the bodice to get the same effect without brushing the hair.
Some things you should note are:
- Barbie cannot stand up on her own and her limbs are not jointed.
- Her skirt cannot be removed and put back on easily. Under the skirt she wears a large plastic skirt with a speaker and if children try to pull the skirt down it quickly becomes 'stuck' so be aware of this. It also means she won't be able to change clothes.
- Removing her from the box is pretty easy (again I recommend nail clippers to snip the plastic ties) but she does have the ties in her head again so take care not to cut her hair accidentally.
Despite these minor annoyances, the kids love her and find her to be super beautiful and fun to play with and cart around. Overall, just a beautiful barbie who'll be really popular with kids who already own a simple Barbie for dress-up games.
