Re: Barbie as a Computer Engineer

Here's a couple of thoughts as we continue to add our vote information -

A toy can provide an opportunity that helps a child learn and develop. If Barbie is a doll with cool clothes that the child plays with in a familiar environment such as a playroom, the child's imagination can be stimulated and encouraged to help the child think, true. If Barbie is taken out of the familiar environment and placed in an environment to help develop the imagination and thinking processes in areas such as the ones mentioned here in the thread, how much more fun for the child. There's always possibilities and opportunities for helping dreams become realities.
