Barbie Games and Budgets

My sister recently imposed a new budget on us for Christmas presents. With the sour economy and the rather large number of cousins on that side of the family, we are now only allowed to buy presents for the cousins that fall in the $5 to $10 range. Normally I enjoy spending a bit more and finding something really fun for my nieces and nephews, but with this budget on my shopping, I’m going to be looking for great deals over the next few months.

My quest for cheap Barbie games is going to be the main point of my search. One of my nieces is getting to the age where she is clearly ready to start playing with Barbie games. The other niece is already enjoying Barbie games and will likely enjoy one of the more unusual career choices that Barbie games seem to have lately. Of course, since I’m on a budget here, I have to look around and find the dolls on sale. Fortunately, this is easily done – shopping is great fun, but finding an awesome deal on Barbie games is even better! 

Barbie Games and Summer Fun

The summer months are the best time of the year to sit down and enjoy some Barbie games. The games are simple enough with the Barbie dolls you’ve always known and loved as well as all of the various accessories that go along with the dolls. For example, you might spend an entire week in the summer months going through your large collection of Barbie dolls and their various clothing items and then creating any number of new outfits and styles.

Put it all together and you might be able to set up a full Barbie games village out of dream houses, cars and horses. If you don’t have enough houses to make Barbie’s village complete, by all means make new houses using boxes and other creative ideas. The best games are the ones that require you to be a bit creative and to come up with creative uses of ideas and fun. Enjoy your Barbie games over the summer when you have days of time spread out ahead of you – it’s a true luxury that we should all enjoy.

The Variety of Barbie Games

I am so impressed lately with the sheer variety of the Barbie games. As I walk down the pink aisle in the toy store, I’m impressed that the Barbies are taking up almost the entire aisle again. Not too long ago they had to share the aisle with the young upstarts, the Bratz games. Now Barbie is spreading out again, and one of the main reasons seems to be that she has so many different dolls to pick from.

Barbie games have always included a variety, but it seems more than ever that there are dolls for every occasion. There are the princess dolls and the fashion icon dolls. There are also Barbie games for every profession under the sun and a rather wide variety of mermaid Barbies as well. If you look hard enough you can still find the butterfly Barbie games and even one or two basic Barbies that comes with a new outfit and some little tiny shoes.  

Barbie Games and Summer

What better time to hang out in your air conditioned room and check out all of the treasures you’ve stored in your closet than the summer months? Now that it’s summer, it’s likely too hot to spend very much time outside and if you’re looking for quiet ideas to spend in your room, why not put in your ear buds and pull out the old case of Barbie games? You can dig through all of your old Barbies to see what sort of things you’ve acquired over the years and then simply forgotten.

If you have a younger sister or you babysit younger kids, you can pull out some of your favorite Barbie games to share with the younger generation. Even if you’re a teenager or an adult, playing with your old Barbie games is immensely satisfying. There is just something special about pulling on a new outfit or standing Barbie up next to Ken to check out how well they look together. Not only does it bring back the old memories of how you used to play, sitting down with your Barbie games also helps you relax and enjoy simpler times as well.  

Barbie Games and Horses

I was surprised recently to find a Barbie game that included Barbie herself and a horse. The horse was amazingly similar to the Barbie horse that I played with when I was a child. It was actually my sister’s Barbie horse, but it was gratifying to see that some things just never change very much in the world of Barbie. In a world of constantly changing dynamics, at least some things have lasted the decades – Barbie’s horse.

If memory serves the horse we had to play with came all by itself. Back then, you bought the accessories on their own – they didn’t come with the Barbie dolls, too. Now though there are countless accessories and almost all of them seem to come with a new Barbie doll as well. The Barbie games that are available today might be similar to those that were available a few decades ago, but they are definitely still popular with the young girls of today. It might be old to me, but it’s all new and exciting for three-year-olds today.
 

Barbie Games and Birthday Parties

I’m heading to a birthday party next weekend and I have another one the week that follows. What that means is that since the parties are for little girls turning three or four years old, there will absolutely be a Barbie in the mix. Barbie games are the best present for girls of this age because there is such a wide selection of Barbies, you’re always able to do something with the dolls that suits the particular guest.

In the case of the little one turning three years old, a princess Barbie game will likely be my first choice. Or if I find fairy Barbie games, I might decide to go with that instead. Having a full selection of Barbie games makes it simple to find the ones that suit the age.

For my older little friend who is turning four, she is very much into the more fashionista Barbie games. High style fashion, pink cars and horses are all the order of the day for her, although I’m reasonably sure I won’t be buying all the pieces of those Barbie games at once for a single birthday party.  

Barbie Games: 3-Story Barbie Dream Townhouse

I was looking through the lists of the hottest toys lately for another project and came across an entry that definitely caught my eye. It would appear that one of the hottest toys of 2011 is one that is heavily inspired by Barbie games. In fact, the 3story Barbie Dream Townhouse would be pretty pointless without Barbie games. The townhouse, while expensive even by Barbie standards, is the prize for girls who love Barbie games. It’s simply a matter off finding one when you need it.

Barbie has always had lovely places to live, and this year it’s no exception. Barbie is sporting a beautiful townhouse complete with furniture, accessories and even a beautiful gilt elevator. In the townhouse, you’re able to set up Barbie’s furniture any way you’d like so that she can enjoy her home and invite her friends and family over to share in the fun as well. Play Barbie games in the townhouse, and when Barbie is ready to step things up a notch, she can settle into the included hot tub to wind down her evening.
