Barbie Glam Vacation Jet
When Barbie goes on vacation in the tropics, having her own jet
is definitely the way to go. Who wouldn’t want to fly in a
private jet. Barbie Glam Vacation Jet has four realistic
sounds, but most importantly it has a working microphone, so
girls can make pre-flight and in-flight announcements. Once the
flight is over, the first class cabin also converts to a
tropical resort. But before they get there, girls can enjoy in-
flight entertainment. There is the food cart with food pieces,
luggage, microphone for in-flight announcements. Once the plane
lands, it no longer makes sense to use the microphone for
announcements, but there are plenty of new things that Barbie
can do. After landing at the tropical island, it's time to
convert the first class cabin into a high class dining area and
island getaway spa where Barbie can meet her friends. Beauty,
comfort and friendship - that's what Barbie world is all about.
The jetliner and the spa are beautifully detailed, clearly a toy
made for those who appreciate fine detail. The one drawback is
that there are a lot of small parts - this is not a toy for
small kids. It will also take a bit of help from grownups to
fully assemble Barbie’s jet.
Before takeoff, Barbie needs to load her luggage. The
matching purple luggage set is put on the plane using a sliding
luggage loader. Take off and landing sound effects, and seat
belt signal round out the flight experience. Barbie Glam
Vacation Jet serves airplane food that comes from a fully-
stocked kitchen. But remember the last time you flew - chances
are you did not get this kind of service or food choices. Barbie
and friends can enjoy burgers, pizza, pie, and ice-cold
beverages. This play set includes plastic cutlery, fancy
glassware, and even ice. The jet’s kitchen is outfitted with a
refrigerator, microwave, cupboards, and soda machines, with
moving parts that will delight every girl. Once the Barbie jet
lands, the first class cabin converts into a luxurious private
spa with a deck and a pool slide. The only thing that remains is
for the jet’s service kitchen can to be flipped around, and
Barbie and friends can enjoy the superb food and beverages, just
like they had during the flight. Now the sound system will play
the island music, and soda fountain sound effects. Everything
necessary for a wonderful rest in the tropics. Everybody would
like such a vacation.
Vacations are meant to be fun. So do pretend play vacations.
With palm trees gently swaying in the breeze, Barbie and friends
get to enjoy themselves. Thanks to the Barbie jet, girls can
experience the thrill of jet travel and tropical vacations
without leaving home. Playing in the sun may seem like it’s only
fun, but in reality, girls learn many lessons while playing with
Barbie Glam Vacation Jet. Pretend play is a child‘s work. While
playing, kids get to try out new behaviors. They learn new
skills. Pretend play not only spurs imagination and creativity,
but allows children to learn practical skills they will need
later in life. In the comfort of their own home, children can
practice what they learned from grownups, or simply imitate what
grownups do. Kids get to improve their manual dexterity,
practice focusing on tasks - just try to arrange all these
little food pieces on a service cart. Being in control of the
toy environment increases children’s self esteem, and the sense
of control over the world around them. When playing with
friends, kids get to practice planning, organizing, and
cooperating with others. They get to negotiate, sometimes argue,
hopefully settle differences amicably. These are all skills
children will use later in life. Why not practice them now,
while having fun on board the Barbie Glam Vacation Jet.
