Webkinz is awesome!!!!! I think the chihuahua is the cutest! At first we had trouble but we figured it out. Does anyone know how to invite your friends over and go over to your friends house? If you do PLEASE REPLY!!!!! The only thing that's educational is that you have to earn money and ansewer questions.

My daughter wanted one of these Webkinz and we could never find one instock at a local shop!! I decided to check Amazon and was amazed that we had several to choose from!! It was well worth the money and the shop that it came from on Amazon was very quick service and no trouble whatsoever!! We have since been able to find one at our local shop now so my daughter now has 2 Webkinz!!! She is 10 years old and thoroughly enjoys taking care of her pets!! I have played the Quizzy's questions to help earn her Kinz Cash to purchase stuff for her Webkinz House!!! Very Fun!!!

I am less than impressed with the Webkinz toys. The toy itself is simply a stuffed animal so nothing special there. The associated website with games and activities seems like a fun idea, but can be pretty complicated to figure out, and sometimes hard to log onto. When you register your Webkinz toy online, you'll be faced with a scheme designed to make your child beg for more of these toys. It will tell you that your child's toy is "best friends" with one or more other Webkinz, so naturally your child will want those, too. (I'm not that big a sucker, we're sticking with just the one) As I said, the website can be frustrating for children to navigate, so be prepared spend some time trying to help your child figure it out. In addition, the "subscription" to the website expires after a year, at which point you have to pay in order to regain access. They also try to increase interest in certain animals by following the Beanie Baby tactic of "retiring" some of them, and then charging much higher prices. All in all, this seems to be nothing more than another shameless marketing ploy designed to separate us gullible parents from our money.

We have both the Webkinz Chihuahua and the Lil'kins Chihuahua. My daughter loves them both, although I sometimes have trouble figuring out which one is which unless I'm looking at both. The Webkinz is not that much larger than the Lil'kins, but my daughter loves them and that's what matters.
The Webkinz site is definately her favorite web site right now. I love the fact that there are no advertisements or links that take you out of webkinz. I also feel that it is educational... not necessarily because it's teaching kids to take care of something (if you don't log on for a week, your animal's status does not change) but because most of the games in the arcade (especially quizzy's) are designed to make kids think. I probably would not try to have a child who cannot read use the website, just because a lot of it is text based, and would be frustrating for a non-reader.
