One of our favorite things to do when one year ends and a new one begins is to watch the Google Year in Search.
Each year, Google makes a (very emotional) video that highlights the most-searched topics and events of that year, all compiled with video footage from social media and professional media outlets, as well as songs that are popular from the year. Yep, they make us cry about as much as Pixar movies. Well, the Google Year in Search looked a little different in 2023. You see, 2023 marked 25 years of Google, and as a result, this year’s video became “25 Years in Search,” where the most-searched topics and events in Google HISTORY were showcased. The results are pretty amazing.
One thing that caught our attention was that the most-Googled toy in history was included in the video. Any guesses as to what it it?
The most-Googled toy in history ISSSSS….
BARBIE!
Barbie!
It probably comes as no surprise that the iconic MATTEL toy has been Googled again and again for the past 25 years, especially with Greta Gerwig’s 2023 Barbie movie that caused a resurgence of the brand. (We say resurgence, but come on. Barbie has ALWAYS been relevant.

This is such a huge achievement, and MATTEL even shared a post on Instagram when the 25 Years in Search video was released.

Wow! We’re so glad that Barbie is getting the hype she deserves, as a toy that has, in the words of the narrator featured in the Google video, “showed girls they could be anything they dreamed of.” Because of the mere fact that the brand highlights the idea that compassion, drive, kindness, and brains will take you ANYWHERE in life (and that all of those things are way more fun when you’re wearing pink), we think this is awesome.
