The Official Webkinz Thread!!

[pyrxtc]

It's a good thing they don't get sick or they'd all die while we're at Disney!! LOL!

 

[PlutosFriend]

ok. I think our webkinz collection is getting out of control. We have over thirty of them in the house between my 3 oldest girls and I.

I wanted to share a nice little way we are keeping them all neat and tidy. I hate stuffed animals lying around the house.

I went to Walmart and bought a cheap plastic over the door shoe holder and each little webkinz gets it's own pocket to live in. In exchange I get to enjoy Webkinz without stuffed animal mania!

I have to go get another shoe holder since we already filled the first one up.

Hope this helps someone!

Great idea! Maybe I will try this with my dd's Webkinz. How many pockets are there?

 

[PlutosFriend]

Well, I broke down and got one. I have always liked stuffed animals...

Tips for getting started?
What games/jobs only use the mouse?
How do I keep my pet happy and healthy?
If I don't go to the site every day will my pet get hungry/sad/sick?

I got a lil' kinz hippo...don't have a name, yet. Or registered...

Awww, they are one of the cutest if you ask me Just search around the site and see what games you like to play. Do the daily activities for extra money, feed the pet when the numbers go down. It is very simple and addictive

They are cute little animals, and the online versions are even cuter!

I love the pocket holder idea! Once my son gets into Webkinz, I would say we will definitely need one. He's 5, but has asked about it, and I think I'll make that one of his summer distractions, since his bday is right after school is out.

I didn't read the whole thread but I am hopeful you experts can help me! DD got one of these for Christmas but when we went to register it it didn't work. It said the code was already used. I probably didn't do something right. Anyway I e-mailed the company, as the web site told me to, but have not heard back. (That was Friday) DD is so excited to play with this thing and I don't know how to make it work! Can anyone help? Thank-you!!!!!!!

I kind of put off Anna getting one until I couldn't hold off any more. Now that she is 6 (almost 7) and reading well she can navigate the site better herself. It even has her reading more and I like that. So many of her friends had one, but she wasn't really asking for them until recently. I knew it would become an obsession once we started.

I have to admit the yellow lab is supper cute. I might just have to get me one of those.

I have a Lil Kinz Unicorn named Sparkles, a tiger named Stripes, a monkey named Bananas and a hippo named Hyacinth. DH got me a second tiger for Christmas but I let DD have it to add to her account. She's got a pink poodle, pink pony, husky, reindeer, white poodle, and now my tiger. I want to get her to 10 to get the exclusive item. Though she doesn't play so much anymore. Since I got my Crown of Wonder, I now spend most of my time doing games (Solitaire, Dicekinz) and going to the Academy.

There are twenty pockets

LOVE your shirts!

Thanks! We have become the mickey head tie die experts around here. Thanks to Dis boards.

We were wearing them at Epcot and ran into another family with them on, we both looked at each other and said "Disboards" it was too funny.

Mean Queen, you can still do the gem hunt and just sell any gems you get for money. That's what I've been doing since I got my crown of wonder. It's a little extra daily kinzcash and sometimes you find a really good gem and can get a couple hundred extra.

How do you add friends to your list you can can send them mail?

If I understand the question correctly, yes, you can send mail to those on your friends list, along with gifts

 

[Mean Queen]

You have to know your friends user name to add them to your list. So if you wanted to add me as your friend, you would type in Mom2HBBear (my DD is HBBear.)

We just made these at Disney's HH resort over New Year's. I messed up my Mickey head but both my DD's turned out great. I love how well defined your Mickey's are.

I made a great tank top one this summer. It came out perfect. I can't wear it sadly, it is made to be stretched, and my poor mickey head looks like an alien now. I am going to save it for a few years until it fits Anna as a big tank and she can wear it. All the kids tanks came out good, along with DH's. Darn my womanly curves! I did make one that is more tee-shirt like and it turned out fine, but the mickey on it is very subtle.

So keep that in mind when making a shirt! I have made a number of them, and the one in this picture is my favorite. Part of it is I made it with a white shirt I loved how it fit to start with.

I have been a good webkinz mommie today. I didn't log on and do all her daily activities yet. I spend a good deal playing home before dark last night. I am getting pretty darn good at that game.

How hard are the shirts to make? That would be a fun thing to make for Jake (and maybe me) before I bring him on a surprise trip this spring.
