Barbie Games and Magic


There is a lot of magic wrapped up in Barbie games. The toddler who gets her first Barbie or watches a Barbie movie for the first time gets wrapped up in the magic of fashion and even more powerful magic of creativity.

There truly is magic in imagination. Just think of all the things a girl can become when she’s not limited to certain costumes and outfits. Barbie games have always been good at creating a huge variety of costumes and dolls. I especially like the Barbie dolls that appear to be fairies, mermaids or the like.

The sheer magic of dressing up a doll is substantial, but the magical storylines of dressing up a mermaid and having her transform before your very eyes is pretty intense as well. The same is true for a fairy. Your regular Barbie might get in her pink car and go to work, but your fairy Barbie games are going to be more creative. In my mind, at least, the Barbie games that include some magic are also much more fun.
