Sharing Barbie with a new generation

[Ad- gifted products] With the Barbie Movie coming out, I am sure you have seen the large number of Barbie marketing that has been out there. I feel like everyone in my generation has memories of playing with Barbie. I had a giant wooden Barbie house, a Barbie toddler jeep, plenty of Barbie toys… it was just one of those things I feel like everyone plays with!
