Celebrating Barbie's 50th year with Mom at Toy Kingdom
MANILA, Philippines – The first Barbie doll captured the hearts of girls of all ages when it debuted in March 1959. Ever the fashionista, Barbie made her grand entrance in a black and white zebra swimsuit and a topknot ponytail.
Fifty years and hundreds of stylish clothes and hairstyles later, Barbie continues to leave a strong mark on pop culture across generations. And as we celebrate Mother’s Day on May 10, we can be sure that a Barbie doll is one childhood experience today’s moms and daughters share.
In celebration of Barbie’s 50th Anniversary, Toy Kingdom, the amazing toy superstore, brings back the top-selling Barbie dolls and play sets over the years. This means moms and daughters can now share some Barbie talk with classics like Fashion Fever, Stylin Tattoo, and Cut n Style Dolls; as well as play sets like Dream Rooms and I Can Be.
In celebration of this milestone, Barbie collectors can now add the 50th Anniversary Barbie Doll available exclusively at Toy Kingdom. This special Barbie edition shows her ageless and more glamorous than ever in a dazzling golden gown. Every purchase of the 50th Anniversary Barbie until June 30 entitles one to a free Barbie 50th Anniversary Mug.
And to show how Barbie cuts across generations, Barbie doll collections of three moms and daughters will be showcased at the Barbie Museum at the SM Megamall Atrium from May 23 to 25.
Barbie dolls and accessories are available at Toy Kingdom Express outlets at SM Department Stores and at Toy Kingdom stores at SM Makati, The Podium, V Mall, SM Megamall, SM Southmall, SM City Fairview, The Block at SM City North-Edsa, and SM Mall of Asia. In the provincial areas, these are located at SM Supermalls in Pampanga, Lucena, Marilao, Baguio, Bacoor, and Batangas in Luzon; and Cebu, Iloilo, Cagayan de Oro, and Davao in the Vismin area.
