I think this may have proven a little more interesting to me than some of the children and parents who helped me review it.It appears to be part of a range of figures/dolls which more closely reflect the real world reality of human diversity, ie different ethnicities, different abilities (there is a wheelchair user), different body shapes or appearances. From a design perspective I thought this was great, sometimes the idea that toys, play and make believe support or reinforce unhealthy stereotypes can be over stated but I always think it is better when greater diversity and variety become a feature.I think it can only be enriching provided it avoids certain sorts of prohibitive mindsets.For instance, this doll appears to have a curvy body shape, eye catching colourful hair styles and enjoys travel and music, it surely does not mean that slimmer dolls with traditional hair colours should be discontinued and recalled.In terms of this design aspect, some of the children I spoke with liked this, they thought that the doll was more like people they knew, their mothers, aunts or family friends or people they knew from regular interactions in shops visited with their parents.On the other hand I did hear one child refer to the doll as "fat" and they did not like it, preferring another, older, "classic" style of doll they already had. I do not think there is anything sinister about this as her own mother and many of those close to her are quite slim too and I thought more closely resembled the earlier design. In any case it permitted a discussion between the little girl, her mother and one of her mother's friends about what was "fat" and what was not and why it would be an issue in the first place for liking or disliking a toy or a person. I thought that was interesting to witness.Setting the design/aesthetic angle for one moment, the materials that the doll is constructed from are good, the points of articulation all work as expected and the small plastic accessories that accompany it are also of a good quality too. The doll would, I expect, prove endurable, and last as long as one could expect a much loved/played with toy to last. Recommended.

Daisy, or "Fat Barbie" as she is known in our house, is part of the Barbie Dreamhouse team and also part of Mattels attempt to make Barbie more "normal". I think they call it the curvy Barbie range.Daisy was a MASSIVE hit with the (slightly chunky) seven-year old who felt an immediate affinity, as of course, she knows her from TV. Sooooooo many accessories with this doll, which is invariably why the price is higher than the usual £10-ish. Worth it though, as plenty for little imaginations to be kept occupied with - packing the suitcase, getting ready for a flight, getting the neck support on and having a nap, putting the guitar on and performing a concert. Walking around the garden and taking photos.(The kitten is a little incongruous to me as you wouldn't take a kitty traveling, but the 7-yr old hasn't noticed that). I thought it a little odd that amongst the stickers there is a passport - a little square of plastic to put the sticker on would be beneficial (we used a Lego piece). The other stickers are destined to adorn the suitcase, but she's been so busy playing with the doll, she hasn't got round to doing this yet!The only thing I don't like about the doll (and again, I don't think it is an issue for the 7-yr old) is that she is inflexible - so the positions you can see her arms in are the way they stay, which really does limit the poses you can give her. [i will acknowledge my "other" dolls from the 1980s all bent at the elbows and knees, so I just assumed they would still do this as standard]Overall though, this doll has been a huge hit with the daughter and that is what is important.

This doll is presented in such a way that all of the components of the set: doll, cat, and accessories are pretty much on full display on arrival. Barbie's friend Daisy has pink hair, which for lots of little girls is just plain amazing. The one criticism I have of this set is the hair - it's not well done. The doll's hair has a really wonky fringe, with lots of longer, missed strands straggling over her face, and uneven shaping at the sides; there were some odd, frizzy, uneven bits in the main part of Daisy's 'do', and this arrived with a clump of hair loose inside the box, draping over the doll's hand and suitcase. A brand new doll shouldn't be shedding. I brushed this over a bit and have trimmed the hair down to even it out.I think the fringe was supposed to have graduated out at either side (the picture on the box suggested this), bt whilst one side of the doll's fringe did this, on the other side only a few strands had been shaped.The Daisy doll is made using the 'curvy' body sculpt from the new range of varied body type dolls. This translates to a body type that's wider overall than Barbie herself... with particular emphasis on hips. Daisy comes with loads of travel accessories (including a suitcase, mobile phone, neck pillow, toothpaste, toothbrush, headphones, camera, and water bottle), though her guitar doesn't have its own case! Not so great about this doll is the fact that although her hip and shoulder joints move, her knees don't, which means she can't sit down properly.

This Barbie doll, inspired by Barbie Dreamhouse Adventures series (whatever that may be), is another charming addition to the Barbie range. They seem to be altering the look and shape of Barbie dolls - this one is 'Daisy', who seems a little bit of a Neo-Hippie, with her guitar and casual look. I particularly like the fact that Daisy is more of a recognisably 'human' shape that Barbie dolls of yore. She's still got Big Hair, and has also brought along a kitten as a travel companion (although how this gets around quarantine regulations is not explained). Other accessories include an inflatable neck travel cushion, headphones, a bottle of water (must stay hydrated on a journey), moblle phone,a snazzy gold camera (Daisy clearly likes using the camera, as opposed to using her phone cam), toothbrush and a suitcase - and also a handy sheet of stickers, which kids always love, and will have fun adorning Daisy's suitcase with.All in all, I think this is a really cute dolly, and a fine complement to the Barbie range - I can see this being a good seller for Christmas 2019.

Our little girl screeched with excitement when she got Barbie Travel Doll and accessories!! As a child I played with Barbie and all her products and now as a mother watching my 5 year old playing with Barbie travel certainly proves how Barbie has lasted the test of time...Barbie travel doll does not disappoint...It really encouraged imaginative role play and what an imagination Barbie travel invoked...A beautiful doll dressed in fashionable travel attire and trainers with desirable suitcase, rucksack, travel accessories and a cute travel companion, a puppy. The attention to detail is quite something and the choice of travel accessories completes a great value for money toy.My only negetive point would be that because the accessories are so small, but to scale, they are easily lost and I have spent some time searching for lost items but this is just a practical point from a parents point of view but for the child playing these accessories are the piéce de résistance. Barbie travel doll and accessories is a solid and robust product beautifully packaged.

We are going through a big Barbie doll phase in our house at the moment and this is one of our favourite toys from the range. My older daughter got it for her birthday and my younger daughter wants to get one of her own now too!Like all small kids they love packing a bag to bring little toys with them to go somewhere, and also packing bags for their teddies too. So being able to pack a bag for Barbie to go on holidays is great fun for them.All the little accessories can fit in the suitcase, and Barbie has a backpack too for when she gets to her destination. The sleeping mask and headphones are favourite accessories.Barbie herself is wearing a denim style dress and white runners,which is one of the outfits from the tv show Barbie's Dreamhouse Adventures, so they love that they have this outfit to add to their collection.Overall this is a great toy and a firm favourite in our house.

I haven't played with a Barbie since I was a kid, but playing with this Barbie with my girls sure brought back lots of memories! This doll is just as fun and good quality as the ones I remembered from back in the day, but with much more updated accessories of course! From Barbie's cell phone, camera, toothbrush, headphones, backpack, suitcase and even super cute, kitty shaped neck pillow, she has everything she needs for her travels! I loved that many of her accessories even fit inside one another; like her toothbrush and toothpaste could be put inside her travel pouch, then inside her backpack or suitcase. It really makes playtime lots more fun. Barbie herself is gorgeous as always and her hair is soft and shiny too!Overall, she's a beautiful doll and my girls and I really enjoyed playing with her!

Oh, how I wish we had more interesting dolls like this when I was a kid! Daisy is still fairly plain, compared to the likes of Monster High dolls, but it's still a little bit of variation from the standard Barbie doll - she has slightly more realistic body proportions, and of course in this case also has the cute pink hair.I love the travel-theme, would be great for a kid getting ready for their first experience of travelling, you get all the accessories a good girl on her travels would have: suitcase, guitar, camera, phone, novelty neck pillow...oh, and of course, a kitten! It's a very cute set, I'd have liked a little toy passport to go with her but otherwise it's great.Packing is good,you've hard-shell plastic and with the whole set on display, it arrived in good condition.

This is a really great Barbie (or Daisy) set. Daisy is off travelling – dressed in casual clothes, with pink hair, a kitten, a guitar, a suitcase and lots of smaller accessories. I like the fact that she has a more normal body-shape and she looks really fun, with her colourful hair and casual clothes.Of course, what makes the set so much fun are all the small accessories – toiletries, camera, headphones, phone, etc. This has lots of play value and the kitten is cute; although might cause problems if Barbie is thinking of flying anywhere. Still, children will not consider such practicalities, which is the way it should be. A great set and nicely presented; with most of the accessories packing neatly away in the suitcase,so they won’t get lost.

This is a really cute barbie set with accessories. I was really impressed with this barbie set as the barbie was dressed as if she as she was to embark on a holiday and she had all the accessories for her holiday. It's a well thought out collection and what I really liked was the fact my little one was able to but everything but the dog and the barbie in her suitcase to store away which makes a big difference when we put the toy away when she's not playing with it or when she wants to take it to a friends place to play with. The suitcase works a great storage for all the other bits including travel pillow, eye mask to camera.I would definitely recommend this to barbie fans.I was really impressed with it all.

Nicely thought out little package of doll and accessories, including camera, luggage, travel pillow and luggage. Apart from the travel kit that the doll comes with, there is also cute little kitten and she wears a practical outfit for travelling in.So nice to see a doll in the Barbie range that dresses the way normal people dress. She doesn't look like she's just walked off the catwalk or is one of Charlie's Angels.This doll could almost be a real person with her creased jeans and actual realistic thighs.I like the pink hair too, everything is very much on trend with regard to this doll's look and accessories.The build quality is what you would expect from the manufacturer.Mattel know what they're doing.

My 3 year old received this as her first 'big girl' doll. I was impressed with the amount of accessories this doll came with, as we havent flown with her yet she didnt recognise some pieces and it was nice to be able to explain what they were. The accessories seem very durable and it is handy that they fit back into the suitcase after she has been playing with the different pieces. She enjoys being able to pose Barbie who can sit/stand well and play with her hair. The only slight downside is that it is tough for my daughter to dress and undress Barbie but that will come with time. I can see this becoming a firm favouite and allowing her to feed her imagination through play.

This Barbie travel playset has created such an amazing doorway open for imagination for my child. She loves pretending and learning about different countries and cultures that I integrated into her play time with this set. Barbie super fashionable in her travel outfit which sets the scene. All her accessories make for a great addition to her travel needs. The luggage she come with is fully functional it closes and opens with ease. It holds all her travel gear and it doesn't unlatch unless you unlatch it. Which is a plus because its quality made. All in all a super cute playtime, imagination time, anytime playset!!
