I know Webkinz is old news and Kerri and Hsien did several posts about the whole craze and what a craze it was!
We joined the craze late and are just now experiencing what Webkinz is all about. I actually tried getting my kids interested in it when it first came out, but my two older ones thought it was a little babyish. I mean hello, it’s a stuffed animal mom. 
My daughter and I were in Justice for girls the other day and she saw a Webkinz Chihuahua
When we got home, she hopped on-line immediately to register her chihuahua, give it a name and see what this website was all about. To make a long story short…I now have to set the timer and give her a limit to her addiction.
Also, we just received in the mail the Beagle Webkinz
I was really impressed with everything the website included and it’s something I am comfortable with them being on. I give my kids the safe internet talk at least once a week. Yeah, they get tired of it but I’m taking no chances.
Okay, so now we have a house with 3 Webkinz and 2 computers. Hmmmm, did life just more complicated or what? I’ll be sure and post a picture of our Webkinz all dressed up in the next few days.
I have to set limits on my daughter’s online time too! Along with the webkinz, she loves the TyGirlz dolls that come with secret codes that unlock an online world. I work with Ty Inc., so I feel secure allowing her to access the site and interact in a safe environment. She has already furnished her doll’s entire virtual house! You can see what it’s all about at http://www.tygirlz.com.
Hi Linda. I have not heard of TyGirlz but I am sure my 9 year old would be very interested in checking it out.
Do you have contact information for someone that I could talk to regarding a product review? Thanks in advance. I’m heading over to the site now.
Hi Julie. Linda informed me you were interested in a product review. Please contact me at your earliest, tygirlz@animaxent.com, I would love to give you more information about our Ty Girlz.
Thanks Matthew. Sending you an email now….
IM gonna have to say that I would like to see a new webkinz soon like a rhino or something.
Me too Carter!
