What Barbie and Ken Learned



From the 1961 album Barbie Sings.

Barbie intones in the intro to the song, "We have so many things to take about.  You know, I used to wonder what it would be like to
  • go my first dance
  • have my first date
  • wear my first formal and
  • have a whole wardrobe of pretty clothes."

What Barbie learned about in school:
  • readin'
  • writin'
  • 'rithmetic
  • presidents
  • kings

More specifically, Barbie learned how to
  • read a book
  • write a letter
  • sew and cook
  • knit a sweater

Ken, an outdoorsy kinda guy with rhythm, learned how to
  • ride a bike
  • drive a golf ball
  • swim and bike
  • do the cha-cha
