Barbie Games and Christmas


Christmas is fast approaching and I’ve been a bit surprised by how few pages of the toy catalogs seem to be dedicated to Barbie games. Normally, you’d expect to see pages and pages of Barbies all lined out across the page in a variety of outfits and styles,. There are Barbie games for major movies. There are Barbie dolls with mermaid tails and wings like butterflies. Barbie games include any number of accessories as well, and normally I can spend quite a bit of time looking over the options to see what’s available this year.

For whatever reason, I haven’t had the same reaction this year to the Barbie games. Maybe there’s just not as much in the catalogs, but really I think it’s more than that. I’d like to see a new tactic for the Barbie games. How about some totally new careers? Or perhaps a new boyfriend? Let’s really shake things up with Barbie games in 2012. The Christmas catalogs are starting to look a wee bit stale, and Barbie games should never be stale.
