Barbie Educational Toy By MrsSpy on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
This very cute Barbie computer was given by my niece to my daughter on her 2nd birthday. My daughter was very young then but this computer made her so excited to learn and play.
I think Barbie makes most girls really excited and happy. I like the fact too that Barbie came up with such an educational toy. I was not really a big fan of Barbie dolls. I believe that Barbie dolls are reflections of a very materialistic world that we are living in. I was surprised that Barbie came up with other toys that are helpful for kids and educational.
There are 8 game icons in the computer: My ABCs, Number Fun, Shape Sense, Count & Style, Puzzle Pieces, Letters Switch, Memory Dance and Musical Mystery. Among all of those, my daughter's favorites are 'My ABCs' which teaches her to identify letters and things that start with each alphabet, and 'Number Fun' which is about addition and subtraction. I am enjoying the toy myself. I love teaching my kids and at the same time playing and having fun with them.
I highly recommend this toy for little kids. My daughter (4) is now teaching her little brother (2) the alphabets using this computer.
By the way, the computer's size is 5inchesx4sides.

Very nice! Thanks for providing the info on this.
What a great idea to introduce children to a computer!!
Wow, that screen sure is tiny. Nice gift though.
Oh yes Pye the screen is really tiny, but it shows like one letter, number or illustration at a time so very visible still.
