Minor Events

  The third event on BarbieGirls.com, themed around San Valentine's Day, V-Day is a bit smaller in scale than the previous events but it's notheless very entertaining and with each edition grew in scale. Starting in February of 2009, new clothes, accessories and furniture were added with also freebies to all players, with new stuff added in each year. Hangouts like Twilight Woods and B Café had decorations in latter editions of the event. 

 For Fun, there were activities like Give a Valentine, were V.I.P. Members could give to anyone exclusive furniture or the added profiles of the Crushes, the boy avatars that inhabited the world of Barbie Girls. 

B-Day

  B-Day was the event that lasted the fewest time, having only lasted the week around Barbie's 50th anniversary, which was on 9th of March 2009. Players got an invitation thorugh mail to go visit B Café that was decorated in all pink  with a large birthday cake. Nothing else was added and the event was never available again. In 2011 they reused the B-Day B Café decorations for V-Day with some minor alterations. 

Funky Flower & fairy Power

  During early Spring 2009 a new version of The Trick or Treat transformations were released: the Funky & Fairy Power.

 How it worked: User would click on any member and ask them to transform themselves, which could be a Fairy Power (Rainbow Fairy, Raindrop Fairy, Sun-fire Fairy, Lightnin' Fairy) or a Funky Power (Funky Sunflower Girl, Funky Rose Bud, Funky Pansy Pal, Funky Daisy Diva).

 To turn off the transformation users had to simply click on the glowing flowers on the top corner of the screen. There was also the option to refuse giving a transformation to someone.

After 2010 the transformations were only available for V.I.P. members at Sparkle Coaster Place.

Too-Cool back-to-School

  Too-Cool Back-to-School was released during September 2009. It had an unique format, as there was not any decorations, just new items of clothings. During the first week news clothes arrived to the shops (2 dresses and 3 jackets) and in the second one was time for the accessories (2 hairstyles, 1 scarf, 1 pair of earring and 1 pair of boots). The V.I.P. members who bought the items before September 24th would receive a new pair of boots in their closet as a reward for completing the collection. On 2010 all items were in stores once again for a short time but there wasn't any checklist of items to complete to receive a reward. 

April Fool's

  Another super unique event that only happened once was April Fool's in 2010. Described as a BIG day, the players avatars would be quite large, barely fitting in the hangouts of the world of Barbie Girls. While at first glance it could look like a glitch, it was quite a unique and amusing feature.
