Barbie Games and Young Girls


Barbie was originally designed for older girls. The games were perfect for grade school girls who were tired of playing with baby dolls and who wanted something more realistic to play with besides paper dolls. When Barbie games were introduced, they were a huge novelty that caught on very fast. Today these girls play with the Barbie games online, but you’d be hard pressed to find many eight-year-olds at home with their Barbie dolls on a daily basis.

Instead it is the little girls who love the Barbie games. Toddlers and preschoolers are the most common owners of Barbie games and it’s not a bad thing by any stretch. With a huge collection of fashion dolls to choose from today on what used to be the pink aisle, Barbie games stand out thanks to their collection of princess and fantasy dolls. There simply isn’t a large selection of mermaid or fairy dolls that can be dressed up and actually played with. Barbie games have managed to catch a toe-hold on that market pretty effectively.
