Barbie Games: A One of a Kind Plaything

Barbie games essentially mean the world famous Barbie doll and her friends which are among the best loved toys in the world. Barbie doll was created by Ruth Handler, an American Businesswoman. The Barbie doll is said to be inspired by a German Doll the Bild Lilli which rose to fame after its introduction in 1955.

The first ever Barbie doll was launched on March 9, 1959 and fifty years since its inception it has outshone its contemporaries. Barbie games are indeed top notch toys which have mesmerized people across the world.

It's Inception: Did you know that the name Barbie was inspired from the Ruth Handler's daughter Barbara? Barbara used to play with paper dolls and assign them adult roles, which triggered the concept of Barbie dolls. Barbie was the first adult bodied doll and the form was inspired from Bild Lilli. But later Mattel acquired the rights to the Bild Lilli doll after which the production of Lilli doll was stopped and Barbie doll rose to fame.

Barbie - The Glam Doll Barbie toys are considered to be the best in the segment, so much so that it outdid the Lilli doll - the original inspiration. Barbie toys became synonymous with style, glamour and impeccable design. They had hair with roots; shoes that were not fixed to the body and a range of clothes for little girls to dress them in.

Barbie dolls were also popular as significant games that enhance organizational skills, exemplified by the various Barbie sets, namely Barbie kitchen, Doctor Barbie and the exclusive Barbie bed room set. This was indeed a pioneering step and the first of its kind in the world.

Barbie & Her Friends With the super success of Barbie, the inventors planned on bringing other characters to accompany her. A new family was created for her. Skipper, Tutti, Todd, Stacie, Kelly and Krissy were Barbie doll's siblings. Boyfriend Ken came into the picture in 1961 and along came friends Tracy, Cristie, Steffie and Cara.

The launch of Barbie and the Rockers in the eighties added a whole new dimension to Barbie toys. In the late eighties, came the 'Barbie and the Sensations series' which included Bopsy, Belinda and Becky. A decade later, a series of 'Generation Girls' were added to the Barbie Toys' product catalogue.

Interestingly the world famous Barbie Doll's 1960's storyline talks about her parents George and Margaret Roberts who were never marketed as toys. Barbie doll collection is an interesting, expensive yet active hobby. The wide range of toys offered by Mattle in the Barbie toys category has enticed little girls across the world. Gift the little girl in your life a Barbie games set and rest assured that it will be treasured for life.
