While we’ve never met a Squishmallow we didn’t want to hug, and construction toys are always a great learning toy, there’s no denying that Barbie is back in a big way. The success of the Barbie movie this past summer means that Barbie toys are more popular than ever.

Whether you’re shopping for a longtime Barbie lover or a new convert, there are lots of amazing Barbie dolls and toys to choose from this holiday season. From a new Barbie Dreamhouse to play sets that encourage imaginative play, 2023 is definitely Barbie’s year.

1. A party-ready dream house

The 2023 Barbie Dreamhouse

Every Barbie girl deserves a dream house, and the new 2023 Dreamhouse is fit for a pink princess. With a three-story spiral slide, two elevators—one for Barbie and one for her pets—plus a swimming pool, this is the ultimate party house. Plus there are 75 accessories included so that the fun never stops for Barbie and her friends.

2. A doll straight out of the movies

Barbie the Movie Collectible Doll

Dressed in the now-iconic pink gingham dress, the new Barbie the Movie Collectible Doll looks like she walked straight off the silver screen. Created to look just like actress Margot Robbie, this doll has the classic Barbie proportions and is accessorized with matching pink pumps and daisy jewelry.

3. A doll that’s Ken-ough

Barbie the Movie Ken Doll

It may be Barbie’s world and everyone is just living in it, but it wouldn’t be half as funny without Ryan Gosling’s Ken. Decked out in his pink and green striped shorts outfit, this Ken doll comes with a surfboard and white sneakers so he can “beach” all day.

4. A Barbie toy they can build

Mega Barbie the Movie Building Toy

Build your very own Barbie Dreamhouse that looks just like the movie set with this Mega building set. The 1,795-piece set includes four mini dolls, plus furniture, food, and fashion pieces. The finished build has all the rooms that Barbie needs—bedroom, kitchen, dining room, and pool—and you can even combine other Mega sets with it to create your own unique dream house.

5. A set of aspirational Barbies

Barbie Women in Sports

The 2023 “career of the year” dolls, this set of four different Barbie dolls are all about highlighting career opportunities for women in sports. Included are a General Manager, Coach, Referee, and Sports Reporter, each of whom comes with their own relevant accessories, like a whistle and flag for the ref and a megaphone for the coach. We also like that the set includes dolls with a diversity of skin colors and body types, because representation matters in both sports and the toy box.

6. A way to take to the high seas

Barbie Dream Boat

Sometimes Barbie just needs to escape, and what better way to do that than in her new Dream Boat? Decked out with everything she needs for a day of fun in the sun—including a swimming pool with a slide—the boat comes with over 20 accessories and a puppy and dolphin pal for Barbie. The top deck is removable for easier access to the interior, and the living room and kitchen can be transformed into a bedroom and bathroom for extra guests.

7. An inclusive Barbie

Barbie Fashionista with Wheelchair

Barbie fans who are wheelchair users will be thrilled with the gift of a Barbie who gets around just like they do. This Barbie Fashionista doll comes dressed to the nines in a rainbow-striped dress, uber trendy belt bag, and white tennis shoes. Her wheelchair has rolling wheels and a working brake, and the doll comes with a ramp that’s compatible with the Barbie Dreamhouse.

8. A magical companion

Barbie a Touch of Magic Pink Pegasus

Straight out of the popular TV show, this gorgeous Pegasus doll lights up with rainbow lights and even plays the A Touch of Magic theme song. Kids can press the horse’s necklace or flap her wings to activate the lights and sounds, and they can “feed” her ice cream or carrot cake to get her to munch and neigh. The set comes with 10 accessories, including a comb and sparkly barrettes for styling her mane, plus a puppy companion.
