Steps

At home play

  1. Play house. Set up a Barbie house or doll house, or just improvise. Have Barbie spend a day doing house things, from watching TV to doing the dishes. Also she could have a big grand dinner and all her besties could come over and have dinner and then sit down and watch a movie, or you could put on old Barbie clothes and she could have a clean out day and she can tidy up her house.
  2. Set up a homework space for Barbie. Have her study. She could even hold a study group. If she does hold a study group make sure her besties are in it!!!
  3. Set up a movie night for Barbie be creative you could have one Barbie hosting it and the rest guests . You could turn the barbie venue into a sleepover den for her and get popcorn and Barbie pjs

Party play

  1. Play pool party. Dress your Barbies in swimsuits and fill a dish with water. Play music, set up play food, add beach towels, etc.
  2. Have a Barbie sleepover. Choose one Barbie to host the sleepover and the other Barbies as guests. Have games and snacks.
    • Make Barbie-sized sleeping bags. This simple to do––cut rectangular pieces of scrap fabric a little longer than barbie and twice as wide. Stitch down the two long edges and one short edge. Leave the other short edge open to allow Barbie entry into the bag. Make a pillow as well.
    • Give Barbie a house warming party. Barbie can get little house warming gifts from her friends like house plants and pictures frames. Have the party when Barbie is all moved in or arrange little boxes around her new house or apartment like she's still moving in.

At school
