Barbie Games and Hair Color

It's not very often that you used to see a Barbie doll with a different hair color. Barbie games have almost always had blonde hair and the more games you played, the more you became used to the blonde hair. In fact, it was simply the way things were done when you played. Ken even, in the first edition of course, had blonde hair as well.

As the Barbie games became more main stream, we were finally able to move away from the blonde hair that was traditionally associated with the dolls. Now we have Barbie games in any number of differ rent styles and designs, and among those you'll find the red hair and brown hair that makes the dolls unique at least. But most of the time, when you're considering Barbie games, you'll almost certainly run into the blonde haired bombshell we've all been familiar with. Everyone else just appears to be Barbie’s best friend.

Barbie Games and Creativity

Barbie games are one of the first and best sources of creativity and imaginative play that little girls can enjoy. While they may love their toy kitchen or the little carriage that they push around with stuffed animals, it’s the Barbie house and the dolls and the collection of the Barbie games that really makes it possible for the action to unfold for these girls.

While toddlers enjoy the most basic form of imaginative play – imitating life, the more complex Barbie games that the girls start to play do much more than mimic life. They start to dress up the dolls like characters and act out complicated, imaginative scenarios that not only are fun, but beneficial as well. Having a chance to sit and play is significant for little girls and for the older ones as well. A creative mind is not only important for games early on, but for creative thought as the girl grows to adulthood as well.

Barbie Games and New Designs

The warmer months are an outstanding time to dig out your old Barbie games and dust them off. This is the time when you can really start to enjoy your games by pulling out all of the old Barbie games you’ve had over the years and adding in some new Barbie games as well. You may have started with the various princess Barbie games, but there are countless more games that are stunning to own as well as simply beautiful. The number of costumes and different looks are truly impressive.

Among these more interesting Barbie games are the international Barbie dolls that have interesting clothing items, cultural elements and even slightly more ethnic looks. The Barbie games to represent China, for example, have a much more distinctive Chinese look than Barbie games traditionally have. This makes the games that much more interesting since sometimes we get a bit tired of seeing the same blonde bombshell every time we turn around with the Barbie games.

Barbie Games and Leg Warmers


I’ve always wanted a pair of leg warmers. It’s been a small dream of mine since I was a girl. After all, Barbie games always seemed to have leg warmers and it’s only fair that if Barbie got some, I should have some, too. Of course, to date I haven’t invested in any, but it’s only a matter of time. In the meantime – while I continue the search for leg warmers large enough to fit a grown-up, I’ll have to be satisfied with the tiny leg warmers that come with the Barbie games.

Playing Barbie games isn’t something reserved just for children. The games are timeless an enjoying a bit of fun with your friends as a child easily translates into plenty of borrowed fun as you grow older. Go back through your Barbie games from childhood and see what has survived the years. Or play Barbie games online and you can see the latest styles and designs that have lasted for decades or just been invented in the last year. You can start a new collection or just continue to enjoy the one you have – Barbie games are always a good time.

Barbie Games and the Kardashians


Strange news is afoot with some of America’s most well-known celebrities. It would seem that Barbie games are getting more popular with pop culture and now the Kim Kardashian dolls are going to be sold. In fact, if you’re not happy with Kim you can enjoy playing Barbie games with either of her sisters as well. All three of the Kardashian girls are going to be made into their own Barbie dolls as part of a marketing development for the three.

This is a big deal, of course. Only a few stars have ever had their own Barbie games, especially dolls that actually look like a celebrity rather than a character from a movie. For example, we have a Jacob Barbie game, but not a Taylor Lautner one. For Kim and company to have their own dolls, they have demonstrated that not only are they the sort of brand that people would enjoy having, but they are also popular enough with younger girls that the dolls will actually sell. It’s almost a scary thought.

Kardashian Barbie Games


I suppose it was only a matter of time, but Mattel has decided to make a new line of Barbie games and the base of these dolls are none other than the Kardashian sisters. If you’re unfamiliar with the three KArdashian sisters, you need look no farther than many of the Hollywood tabloids and reality television. The three sisters are beautiful, pampered, successful in their own way and the perfect girls to model for a new Barbie game.

The most interesting thing about the Kardashians is that the three sisters are all very different shapes and sizes. Kim Kardashian, perhaps the most famous of the bunch, is small with curves in all of the right places. Her sisters meanwhile are either significantly taller or significantly shorter than Kim with their own style of curvy bodies. As Barbie games are known to be beautifully curvy, perhaps this is a Barbie Game match made in toy heaven.

Barbie Games and Holiday Deals


I love shopping after Christmas. This is the time of the truly outstanding deals and if you happen to have a Christmas gathering that falls after the actual day of Christmas, your shopping just got a ton less expensive and easier, too. In fact, if you’re looking for Barbie games and other toys – this is one of the best times of the year to find some outstanding deals. Start by looking for the special Holiday Barbie games. There are newly released Holiday Barbie games every December and you might be able to grab one for half of what you’d normally pay.

Of course, there are other Barbie games on sale as well. Start browsing the aisles of the toy store after Christmas or just look online to see what you can find. You’ll be surprised and frankly a bit shocked about how many great opportunities there are to find beautiful, new Barbie games for a fraction of what you’d normally pay around this time of year. Of course, while you’re shopping for terrific new Barbie games, you can also look for plenty of other favorites in the huge sales of the holidays as well.
