14 of the best Barbie toys your child will love

Designed to look just like Margot Robbie playing Barbie in the new Greta Gerwig film. This Barbie doll is dressed in a beautiful pink and white vintage-inspired dress with matching accessories, plus her arms are posable so she can wave as she says 'Hi Barbie!' to your child's other dolls.

One reviewer said: "Like many women, I grew up playing with Barbie dolls. I wish I’d taken better care of my collection from the 80’s! When I heard about the Barbie movie, I knew they’d make a doll in the beautiful likeness of actress Margot Robbie, and that I had to have one.
The doll is absolutely beautiful and indeed looks like Robbie. Her pink and white gingham dress is a retro 50’s look, with dainty white jewelry and heels. The bangs of her hair are a bit stiff, but a good combing would fix that. The box is pink, bright, and cheerful as always, with a smiling Robbie on the back in a still from the movie.
I would definitely recommend this adorable doll for collectors and little girls who love Barbie. I’m long past my days of playing with dolls, but I can’t wait for the movie and the Margot Barbie will have a special place on my shelf next to my pink Manolo Blahniks."

Mattel launched a wonderful line recently, which included the first Barbie with a hearing aid, inspired by EastEnders actor Rose Ayling-Ellis. She also has a smaller bust, Rose's signature high pony, and a cute daisy print dress. We love her stylish look, especially the little pink boots that she is wearing.

One reviewer said, "My little boy has cochlear implants and was desperate to get this Barbie to give his little sister for her birthday. He said it's the only toy he has seen that has 'ears' a bit like his. Beautiful doll, and lovely to see the inclusive range that has been brought out."

Gone are the days when Barbie was confined to the shopping mall, this Barbie is an outdoors-loving girl who takes care of nature and animals. We're obsessed with all the adorable accessories that this set comes with, plus Barbie's ready to explore outfit, complete with denim shorts and sneakers.

One reviewer said, "Granddaughter loved the Barbie and the little animals, brought her an adventurer outfit to match."

This Barbie doll has a more petite body than the original Barbie design and she also has vitiligo.​ We love this doll for its ability to promote self-acceptance and understanding of others, plus, she's clearly a style icon. The bag she comes with shows she's ready for whatever occasion your little one can think of.

One reviewer said, "Daughter absolutely loves her still after over a year: opens up a dialogue about diversity & role play using this Barbie along with the prosthetic leg one has helped my daughter understand the braider spectrum of diversity, disability & ourselves. The doll is actually smaller & slimmer than a regular Barbie but obviously doesn't make a bit of difference when playing with it."

Now your kids can take Barbie, Chelsea, and Skipper on a road-trip to remember with this gloriously pink camper. With just a push of a button, the camper transforms so you can see the interior, with a fun pool extension included. We love how many accessories are included in this unique and vibrant set.

One reviewer said: "My 8-year-old daughter loves this. We bought it for her birthday and it was an instant hit."

Another reviewer said: "Got this for my 5 year old and she absolutely loves it. Hours of fun."

If your child is a fan of animals or possibly wants to be a set when they grow up, this set will be perfect for them. This sweet inclusive Barbie is helping her pooch deliver pups, with multiple accessories included. For a dog-loving child, we can imagine this set would be a dream-come-true.

One reviewer said, "This set is a lot of fun. The mother dog gives birth to the puppies. The puppies are adorable. The Barbie bends at the knees and hip so she can sit down. The quality is great, and the set is worth the money you paid for it. My daughter is obsessed with it."

Encourage your child to embrace healthy movement with this Barbie doll, designed with flexible joints. Anyone who played with Barbie dolls back in the day will remember how annoying their stiffness was, so this posable and flexible doll is a welcome addition to the Barbie range. We also love her Yoga outfit.

One reviewer said: "Got these for my daycare centre. And the kids love them. Definitely worth the extra money for them to actually have joints. My kids barely touch the fashionistas. All they want to play with is the Bendy Barbies! Need to buy more ASAP."

This set includes one doctor Barbie, and two babies for her to care for. With multiple medical-themed accessories, and mini doctor-to-be can act out a plethora of scenarios with this fun set. We love that this set encourages empathetic play and showcases a female doctor for little girls to look up to.

One reviewer said: "I bought this for my five year old granddaughter. My daughter is a Pediatrician so this is the perfect first Barbie. My granddaughter is delighted with her doctor Barbie and the two babies and their cradles and bottles and has not stopped playing with them since they arrived. Also she’s delighted that Doctors a Barbie can stand without support. A great buy and hours of enjoyment and play."

Barbie still loves a bit of shopping from time to time, and we can't say we blame her. This supermarket Barbie has a working shopping cart and belt to ring up all of her purchases. There are 25 pieces to this set, so your little one can really get stuck in and enjoy hours of playtime with this brilliant set.

One reviewer said, "Our five-year-old loves everything Barbie, and she is super happy with this. She loves all the little items and has already had hours of fun playing with it."

This truly magical Barbie comes with a rainbow unicorn for your little one to fall in love with. We really like how this glitzy princess is perfect for unicorn lovers, plus the vibrant design. It's even designed with multiple light and sound patterns to truly captivate your child as they play.

One reviewer said, "Engaging toy. My 6-year-old was delighted. The unicorn lights are really pretty, and it makes various sounds and tunes. Bought in the sale, so good value for money. Full price is a little steep, but it's great quality, as you'd expect from Barbie. The doll has a good outfit, and legs are jointed at the knees to allow better riding position."

Of course, we had to include a Ken doll. This Ken is working as a vet to ensure the health and safety of his animal patients. Perfect for any children who are interested in animals and vets, this adorable set includes big and small accessories that will have your child's face lighting up in no time.

One reviewer said, "My granddaughter absolutely loved this bought for Christmas. All the little extras that came with it were excellent."

This includes not one but two fabulously designed dolls. Barbie is teaching her little sister Chelsea how to ride a horse, which is a very sweet concept. We love that the dolls and horses have long brushable hair, plus the cute little dog companion. Your child will spend hours playing with this set.

One reviewer said, "An expensive toy but worth the money to see granddaughter playing imaginative games with it."

Barbie is known for her stylish wardrobe and flawless outfits. Your little one can become a fashion designer with this cool Barbie doll, and they can even design their very own outfits, helping them come to life. It includes a fold-up wardrobe, six fabric sheets, two sewing pattern sheets, ten pins, three plastic pins, three thread reels, one elastic, a fabric tape measure, needle threader - plus a spare and a Velcro strap.

One reviewer said, "This Barbie set is just what you would expect from the Barbie collection, good quality and loads of different items. Your child can have some real fun with this set; it contains sharp items, so do be careful. It's aimed at learning about fashion design, it's got fabric, patterns and threads, and it's a great way to introduce sewing to your child. My 10-year-old loved it, she did need a bit of help, but that's understandable at that age. Excellent value for money."

This is possibly our favourite Barbie as it promotes inclusivity and has a fun and colourful outfit. This wheelchair Barbie is a fantastic aid for teaching your child about disabilities, inclusivity and understanding others - or if they're in a wheelchair themselves, they'll have doll that represents them. It also comes with a pink wheelchair and a ramp.

One reviewer said, "Response yesterday on her 5th birthday was 'oh just what I wanted', followed by a hug!"

Another reviewer said: "Daughter loves this and it also fits in the lift of the Barbie dreamhouse."
