Grandma bought Jessica a new Barbie set last week. Jessica and I played for hours; I got to be the 2 children being coached (note that the set comes with all the appropriate accessories for playing soccer - including juice boxes - we were so glad that the brush was bigger than both of the children's heads.
On the outside of the box (Who writes this stuff?):
Coaching soccer is the best1 The girls love to run around, and it's a great way to stay in shape! Someday you can be a soccer coach too!
What Grandma doesn't know is that when we went to Wal-Mart Barbie section to buy a Barbie for a birthday party Melody proudly reported that Grandma got a better deal at Fry's. Perhaps this box would read
Shopping is the best! I can be..........a bargain shopper!

I loved Barbie when I was a kid. I can't wait to have girls so I can play with them!
I don't like Barbies however I would like to be a soccer coach and a bargain shopper.
If you think the Barbie was a good deal, you should see the deal we got on the Magic set! Plus, it entertained them for a long time. Mom
I can't do it. I can't go on a rampage about how much I hate this. People may cry.
But seriously, nothing is more annoying that a stupid Barbie coach that doesn't know soccer.
Oops, some slipped out.
oh barbies, never ceased to entertain me as a kid.
I'm with Alice but those juice boxes completely crack me up as does the huge brush.
love barbies, though those are awfully purple. LOVE the giant brushes and juice boxes. Barbie is so amazing... she's had like a zillion careers and still finds time to coach soccer to stay in such great shape. wow
I don't follow you Ruth Anne, it's a good thing Barbie is encouraging girls sports and leadership as a coach - and Barbie is as smart as we teach her to be to our young girls. Sounds like Jane had a prime opportunity to encourage Barbie to be a good coach so Jessica could see a good role model... As far a good deal - Grandma's are pretty good at finding deals. Grandma Y is probably the best at good deals. Auntie Em
I loved Barbie when i was younger. And I also played soccer from 4 years old to 22 years old...SO...I would have definitely loved the soccer themed barbie!
I LOVED Barbies when I was growing up, but I had the white trash Barbies...hmmm maybe I'll blog about my Barbies when I was a kid...
