Even Barbie's Gone Virtual

There is a new game out for girls called Barbie iDesign where you can either dress up your paper doll when you aren't around a computer or you put software in the computer and start working with virtual barbie. You can put the doll (who is now in the computer) on magazine covers or in fashion shows. It is actually a very creative environment for a child because they can customize and create their own fashion shows as well as the magazine covers that can then be printed! A child can either pick already created outfits or they can put together their own outfits for the model. In addition, there are even four computer games with timed design challenges and style-guessing competitions. Barbie is a lot more complex and exciting then it used to be.
