Barbie's 51st Birthday

Despite the fact that she doesn't have a single wrinkle or gray hair, today is Barbie's 51st birthday! This popular toy has been a staple of pop culture (and little girls' toyboxes) since it was unveiled at the 1959 New York Toy Fair. Fun fact: Barbie's full name is Barbie Millicent Roberts. Mrs. Roberts has had over 50 different occupations in her lifetime, ranging from Cat Burglar to President of the United States. That's one well-rounded doll!

You can celebrate Barbie's birthday with personalized birthday cards and maybe even a slice of plastic birthday cake. Happy birthday Barbie!
