What’s important about this Barbie to you? “She has an adjustable arm so she can sweep the cane like we do” Rita, age 9 💛
Representation matters. You may have caught the news last week as disability activist and guide dog owner @lucyedwards helped launch the first ever blind Barbie from Mattel.
This is the lovely reaction from 9 year old long cane user Rita as she opens a new Barbie doll with a difference!
