I remember this original Wishing Well..........Ganz got rid of it because it looked way too much like traditional gambling. They say right in their FAQ's that "...Webkinz does not endorse, nor condone gambling" and that "While the Wishing Well and Wheel of WOW use visual metaphors that are sometimes associated with gambling, there is no gambling involved. They are merely a method of giving out random prizes to our members."
While this is true, I think some parents still balked at the idea of their kids pulling the handle on a slot machine. Making wishes on a wishing well is so much more kid friendly. |
