Barbie was founded by Ruth Handler, a mother and visionary entrepreneur whose inspiration for Barbie came from watching her daughter project her dreams and aspirations onto paper dolls. Ruth's philosophy behind Barbie was that through the doll a little girl could be anything she wanted to be and that she has choices. Over 60 years, Barbie has empowered girls to imagine themselves in aspirational roles from princesses to presidents.

The Barbie doll is ready for a day at the beach! She comes with her own surfboard and dog, and she can wear whatever outfit you want: from a swimsuit to a summer dress. Your little one can play out the ultimate beach day with a Barbie doll. The groovy-printed surfboard holds the doll in place with foot clips and an ankle strap while she rides the waves. Barbie doll wears a sporty swim outfit with a headband and comes with a playful pet puppy. She is mega-stoked for fun in the sun with a poseable body that allows for realistic movement! Other accessories include a lifejacket, towel, stereo, frisbee, sunglasses, water bottle, sunscreen lotion, sports camera, watch, and banana.
