READ THE TEXT, PAY ATTENTION
TO TARGET VOCABULARY:
Barbie is one of the most iconic toys in history. Created in 1959 by
Mattel, Barbie has been a beloved toy for generations. She has had
many different looks over the years, but her signature blonde hair
and perfect figure have remained consistent.

If you're a fan of Barbie, you might want to stop by the Barbie

Dreamhouse Experience. This bespoke attraction allows visitors to
step into Barbie's world and explore her life-sized dreamhouse. The
experience includes interactive exhibits, photo opportunities, and
even a chance to design your own Barbie doll. It's a must-see for any
Barbie fan!

If you're looking for a blowout party, why not throw a Barbie-themed

bash? You can decorate with pink and purple streamers, serve
cupcakes with Barbie toppers, and have a sing-along to the classic
Barbie theme song. Don't forget to dress up in your best Barbie-
inspired outfit!

Some people might think it's extremely weird to be so obsessed with

a doll, but for many fans, Barbie is more than just a toy. She
represents empowerment, individuality, and creativity. Plus, with so
many different Barbie dolls available, there's a doll for everyone.
Whether you want a Barbie that looks like you or a Barbie that
reflects your interests, there's a doll out there for you.

Of course, not everyone is related to Barbie. Some people might stare

if they see you carrying around a Barbie doll or clicking a Barbie-
themed pen. But if you love Barbie, don't let anyone make you feel in
doubt about your passion. Embrace your love for Barbie and enjoy
everything she has to offer.

HERE ARE FOUR OPINIONS ABOUT TOYS
AND CREATIVITY.

AGREE OR DISAGREE WITH EACH OF THEM,

GIVE YOUR REASONS WHY:

Sarah: "I strongly believe that toys are essential for kids to foster
creativity. When I was a child, I loved playing with blocks and creating
structures on my own. This helped me become more imaginative and
improved my problem-solving skills."

Tom: "I can't decide whether toys really help with creativity or not. On
one hand, they can provide inspiration for imagination, but on the
other hand, sometimes kids rely too heavily on the preset boundaries
of toy designs."

Ava: "Toys definitely help with fostering creativity. My daughter loves

to draw and use different art supplies, and playing with toys that
involve creating stories or imaginative play inspires her. She even
comes up with new ideas for different uses for her various toys!"

Jake: "Without creative play and toys as a child, I don't know where I'd
be today. I first found an interest in music through toys like keyboards
and drums, which then led to me learning real instruments and
pursuing a career in music."

Sophie: "I'm sorry, but toys have done more harm than good to my
child's creativity. All he wants to do now is play video games, which
stifles his creativity. He never comes up with his own imaginative play
anymore, and it's devastating to watch my child become so
uncreative.
