Barbie's a smart coder in gentle video game adventure.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that Barbie: Video Game Hero features Barbie as a smart coder who's designing and programming a video game with friends. Lots of positive messages about creative thinking to solve problems, never giving up, and teamwork getting the job done. There are short, simple explanations of what codes and viruses are. It encourages kids, especially little girls, by showing that they can be coders, too, and make things how they want them to be. Parents may want to talk to kids about what to do if a device is asking them to click to agree to something. That's what starts Barbie's whole adventure, and online safety or consequences aren't addressed.
