How to Replace Batteries in Barbie Bug

Barbie can drive, too, in a remote controlled Volkswagen Beetle. After use, this car will require a change of batteries both in the car and the remote control. While this Barbie doll-sized car is a child's toy, only an adult should change the batteries in it for safety reasons. With a quick change of the batteries in the Barbie Bug, your child can go back to driving her doll around sooner in the remote controlled Barbie Bug.
