The world seems a lot smaller these days thanks to connective technology such as MP3 players, cell phones, PDAs, the Internet, and more. So what better way for girls to go global than with this Barbie Girl device? Barbie has been at the forefront of trendsetting for nearly 50 years and now she's offering today's young girls a way to share their passion for fashion, music, and chat with their bffs.
At barbiegirls.com girls can create their own, personalized online space—everything from designing a "room" to creating a character—where they can then play games, chat with gal pals, watch videos, and even shop with earned virtual money. Word filters, moderation tools, and other safety features ensure that the virtual world stays friendly and fun to all visitors, but the added security and benefits of this Barbie Girl device are ingenious.
Barbie Closet
Create a look that's all your own -- from hair, eyes, and skin tone to clothing, accessories, and makeup.
The Barbie Girl device is basically an MP3 player with attitude. First, it offers a range of customizable fashions and accessories, delivering the next generation of fashion doll play. Second, it is a music device with 512 MB of on-board memory (able to hold about 120 MP3 or 240 WMA-file songs). Third, the Barbie Girl device acts as a "key" for girls who have a room on barbiegirls.com. Girls who have this device and who have physically connected them into one another's computer docking stations can become "best friends" and chat in "secret." It adds a more personal touch to the site experience and an extra layer of safety for parents. The device comes with a secret code, as well, that once entered on the site can allow its user to unlock additional pets, games, hangouts, fashions, and more. To get additional secret codes, girls will have to buy more Barbie accessories, hunt them down on the Internet, or possibly ask their new online friends.
Barbie Girl Gold comes with two hairstyles, two faces, two tops, a skirt, a pair of pants, boots, and wedges that can be interchanged to match the owner's current mood and style. The tech gadget also includes adjustable earbuds, a belt clip, and a durable storage case so it's easy to take everywhere. Extra packs of fashions, pets, and accessories are sold separately and offer the ability for girls to make their Barbie Girl as unique as themselves.
Barbie Games
Dazzling Nails is one of three games you can play online to earn B bucks.
The online world of Barbie Girls offers plenty of time killing fun and lets girls earn more B bucks to spend on virtual accessories. There are three games that can be played over and over, each one taking about 5 minutes to complete and rewarding players with 10 B bucks. Dazzling Nails lets you paint and decorate a set of nails (you can even select rings to go on the hand's fingers), and then allows you to print out the design so you can wear the nails, too. Mix a Music Video lets you choose one of five songs then add in an animated background, icon, and character to create a unique music video. Give Ken a New Look lets you makeover Barbie's boyfriend so she'll notice him again. There are plenty of outfits, cars, careers, and more to choose from for his new style.
Barbie Map
Barbie's world is chock full of places to visit and things to do.
Also online is a small town filled with things for your Barbie Girl to do. There are boutiques, a pet store, and a furniture store to shop in. There's a salon for beauty tips and a café for a quick jolt of caffeine. There's even a movie theater where you can see trailers for upcoming movies -- and earn 20 B bucks for every one you watch. Or you can just stroll around the park and see what other Barbie Girls are up to. Whether it's an introduction to online communities or old hat to your 9-year-old, the Barbie Girls world is a friendly, fun, and safe place for girls to spend time.

Customer Reviews
Awesome on trips for our 6 year old 5
We got this for Christmas for our six year old daughter and she loves it. We don't have to worry about her turning the volume too loud, since it tops out fairly low. She wanted one to be like her big sister, and it is great. She also "plays" with it like a real doll while listening so it is a good "toofer" as well. Great in the car/trips to keep the kids from fighting! Highly recommend this. You can transfer any music you want with ease, if you can't figure it out, try looking for help through google.
Good starter mp3 player for very young girls3
My 8 year old daughter got this for Christmas. If you get one of these, don't pay more than $20 for it. As with most others she wanted it for the extra online stuff (a few extra items kids can "buy" with the B-bucks they earn playing games and "movies" on the site.), which is only good for a year from the time of registration. She has already lost the snap on pieces and the bottom of the player, and the buttons stick and skip over songs. On the positive side: it is very easy to get music onto it. It also has a clip on it so she clips it to a belt loop so she doesn't lose it or drop it. The earbuds it comes with have 3 different size "covers" so they will fit pretty much anyones ears.
Great for young girls4
My daughter received this for her 5th Birthday, although I believe the target audience is a bit older. We have not used the online application yet, because I feel she's too young, but the MP3 player itself is cute, and my daughter loves it. It works well, she uses it all the time, and she loves the fact that she can change the look anytime she wants. I do wish it had a screen so I could immediately go to the album I want, but using the fast forward button to get to the song we want really isn't that much of a bother. Charging is easy, and downloading doesn't get much simpler. I bought one for my niece's 7th Birthday too, since we liked it so much.
