Accessories

6 Months after Christmas and it still gets the most use!
The Barbie Girls MP3 player is a great way to introduce small children to electronics. I purchased two of these for a 5 year old and a 6 year old, and they both LOVE them.

Some of the complaints here I think are directed at an older audience, such as the volume being low. As a parent, I'm GLAD the volume is low because I don't want my kids cranking up the tunes too loud anyway. It's true that you can't see what song is coming up next, but really, my 5 and 6 year old don't care.

Plus, 6 months after Christmas, when most of the toys are broken or forgotten, these MP3 players are still in constant rotation. This was the best buy this past holiday season

This toy wasn't what I wanted at all!
I wanted a Barbie Girl for my birthday for so long and sure enough, for my birthday I got one. I was so happy! When I brought it home it worked for about two times but then the third time it didn't recognize my barbie girl. Then, I just put it up on a shelf for a long time. When I took it down yesterday, it still didn't work. The computer recognized it but the site didn't. I now just use it for and mp3 Player. The earphones have great sound and it has to be REALLY LOUD for anyone next to you to be able to hear it, which is a good thing. I called customer service and they said that the time that it was on the shelf they probably updated the site. That made sense so she put something on our computer for us to download and update to the site. We updated to the site and it still doesn't let me buy a pet or wear jewelery or hairstyles that require the barbie girl. If I try to go into Club Beauty they say to connect my barbie girl to go in when my barbie girl is already in the computer! My mom got angry so we went online and bought a Be-Bratz. I hope it will be better than this barbie girl!

Great for girls. doll and mp3 together.
I bought this for my 8 year old daughter and she is very happy with it. She specially liked the accesories that she can put on the mp3 and on the earphones. You can change the look of the doll just snapping more hair and accesories. The quality of sound is excellent for a player this cheap. Also girls can go into special sections of the Barbie web site. The doll looks very nice in your desk or table.
This is a very good option now when your daughter asks for an mp3 player.

Barbie Girls Lightweight but Good as Gold
I had my doubts before purchasing the Barbie Girls mp3 players for my two daughters. Being a Mac user, I knew that they weren't fully compatible, so I was worried that they would be difficult to get up and running. Have no fear! I had the music loaded in a matter of minutes once the player was charged. The biggest problem is having to charge on the USB port of a computer, which is not always at hand. The other difficulty we've had is with my younger daughter constantly losing the little tiny shoes that her Girl wears. From my two girls, two thumbs up!

Good starter mp3 player for very young girls
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.
